He’s my best friend.
He’s everything I ever wanted.

I’m going to ask him to be my first…

REVIEW

 This story is a prequel to the first book in the Hostile Operations Team series, Hot Pursuit.  I was ecstatic when I found out that this story was going to feature Evie and Matt, my favorite couple from the series so far.  Something about the first book has really stuck with me and revisiting the characters was a real treat for me, although I think the story would be easy to follow having not read any of the other books.

The writing in this story is very different than the others, which I assume is a writing technique applied by Harris to show the difference between how adult brains and teenage brains think.  That point certainly comes across, but at times it is a little bit distracting from the story as a hole.  That said, the story is still excellent and engaging.  I still love Evie and Matt and if I didn't know what was going to come next for these two, the ending would have been heartbreaking.

 Evie and Matt
OVERALL RATING - 4 STARS!
MATURITY RATING - 18+ a little steamy
