Veena’s review of Hot Ticket (Alpha Security, Book 4) by April Hunt
Romantic Suspense published by Forever Yours 10 Apr 18
Logan Callahan is extremely unhappy when he’s asked to rescue Rachael Kline from a Las Vegas jail cell shortly after she left him alone in his bed, after a spectacular night between the sheets. Things go from bad to worse when he finds a professional gunman has Rachael between his sights and he’s going to have to come up with some fancy footwork to keep her alive and kicking. How did things turn from sugar to shit within such a short time?
Rachael’s friend Carly who has survived, kidnapping and drug addiction with Rachael, is in trouble. Carly has chosen the wrong guy to jump into bed with and now needs big-time help. Unfortunately, instead of rescuing Carly, Rachael finds herself in jail with her friend nowhere to be found.
With Logan in full protection mode, Rachael seeks to find and rescue her friend and finds the clues Carly has hidden for Rachael. With a lot of help from Charlie at Alpha Security and some of her friends and the use of gizmos, Logan and Rachael try to stay one step ahead of the bad guys while they mount a rescue of their friend. There are some really cute and funny moments. like the Elvis impersonator marriage chapel which shelters Logan and Rachael for a brief moment on their escape route from the ugly gunman.
This is a novella, so matters progress pretty rapidly, and while there’s a lot of innuendo about Rachael and Logan’s relationship, I feel it could have been given some more substance. Charlie seems adorable, so I need to go back and read her story.
Grade: B
Summary:
WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS . . .
How did a nice girl like Rachel Kline end up in a jail cell in Vegas? Don’t even ask. She came to Sin City to find her missing friend and accidentally got swept up in a police raid. Even worse, she’s being bailed out by the last man she wants to see right now: the irresistibly sexy, infuriatingly cocky Alpha op who rescued her a year ago. What are the odds?
Logan Callahan is six-and-a-half feet of solid muscle and Texas charm, a hard-fighting ex-Marine with a soft spot for Rachel. He’s more than obliged to hang up his cowboy hat and help her out. But when someone takes a shot at her, he knows there’s a good chance what happens in Vegas won’t stay there. With targets on their backs and killers on their tails, it’s one high-risk game they’re playing. And it’s not just their hearts that are on the line . . .
