Review
In book one in the Seal Team Phantom series, Alexa Gordon survives a brutal attack and is trying to get her life back together. After she’s rescued from her violent ex-boyfriend, she becomes a prisoner at a military compound and forced to become a solider. Then the compound is raided and an elite Seal team rescues her.
Kai Swift doesn’t know if he can trust Alexa. He and his men are searching for Jase, their former teammate who had betrayed them a few years earlier, and he thinks Alexa is connected to Jase. Then someone targets Alexa, and it’s up to Kai to keep her safe.
Alexa and Kai are interesting characters. She’s been through hell and come out stronger for it. He’s a yummy badass who will do anything to take care of his team. Their romance was super hot.
Though I liked the overall plot, I found it difficult to keep track of who was who since there were so many characters. Description and detail were sparse in a few places, and there was some grammar issues, so I had to reread to figure out what was going on. There were also some unanswered questions, but at least the end wrapped up the major plot points.
