Originally reviewed for Bodice Rippers, Femme Fatales and Fantasy.Is your winter dragging on? Are you looking for something to warm you up? Well look no more, it's time to meet Lynn Raye Harris' Hostile Operations Team. Hot Package is the third story and second novella in this series. Excited yet?The Hostile Operations Team is a black opps organization that pulls the best of the best from the military and uses their skills where ever needed either at home or abroad. These men are Alphas pure and simple but nothing can bring an Alpha to his knees faster than the woman he loves.Olivia Reese had it all a successful career in the army and huge opportunities for life after the military. Most importantly she had a man she adored. That is until she gave him an ultimatum, me or special opps. Bad enough she gave it But she gave it as he wad leaving on a mission. When he answered only with "we'll talk when I get back". She took that to mean, "yeah, right" and she walked away. It's been six months and Olivia has gotten on with her life *rolls eyes* but someone has sent her a suspicious cd that puts into question some new equipment that the government is going to bid on. Olivia knows that this means Billy's safety. Not knowing who else to turn to, Olivia turns to Billy and H.O.T. for help.Billy "the kid" Blake has missed Olivia sense she walked out his door. She never knew that his choice was going to be her. But when she ran Billy let her go. And now she's back in way over her head and only H.O.T. to protect her.This quickly becomes embroiled in intrigue and Billy, Olivia and the rest of the H.O.T. team rush to find proof before it comes to a vote. While the secondary plot is good, Ms. Harris spends most of the novella focusing on Billy and Olivia, which is fine with me ad these two have wonderful chemistry.A well written novella with great characters, a good plot and wonderful secondary characters.This story was originally released as part of the Hot, Sexy and Bad Anthology.ShauniThis review is based on the ARC of Hot Package, provided by netgalley.
