~**~ ARC Review: Need for Speed (The Elite #2) by Brooke Blaine & Ella Frank ~**~


***5 Stars***

Ooooohhhhhh

*Eyes go wide and a very unlady like squee leaves my mouth as I do a booty dance in my chair*

Yaaasss!

I seriously need Classified like yesterday…

But since I know that won’t happen...let’s get to Solo and Panther.

Well…at least what I can get to when it comes to these two very alpha males without spoiling anything...I loved these two in Danger Zone and that love got amp’d up a thousandfold here. I loved delving deeper into what truly made these two tick and how they ended up helping each other stronger in the smallest but most meaningful of ways. The chemistry between them is even hotter in this book and I cannot wait to see how everything ends up for them.

Now, based on the start of this review, you can tell that the ending of this book is a tad bit different than the first book, but it’s no less heart pumping. It was done perfectly and has me making grabby hands like crazy! But I shall practice patience and try not to squeal like little girl when it finally lands on the Kindle.

They train to serve their country.
They strive to be the best.
But only a select few can be ...

The Elite

* * *

MATTEO MORGAN

CALL SIGN: SOLO

Reckless, arrogant, and bold, Solo is as known in the U.S. Navy for his bad-boy reputation as he is for his skills as a fighter pilot. It’s a surprise to his peers, then, when he’s chosen to train and compete at the most prestigious naval aviation academy in the world.

MISSION RULES:

1. Kick everyone’s ass.
2. Do whatever it takes to win.
3. Do your best to distract the competition.
4. Especially when that competition is a gorgeous blue-eyed perfectionist who makes your blood run hot.

GRANT HUGHES

CALL SIGN: PANTHER

Disciplined, smart, and confident, Panther can’t afford not to play by the rules. As the son of a top Navy commander, all eyes are on him, and being anything less than number one is unacceptable.

MISSION RULES:

1. Keep it safe in the air.
2. Prove you’re more than Commander Hughes’s son.
3. No distractions. Stay focused.
4. Don’t fall for your competition—especially not the rebellious heartbreaker with lips made for sinning.

In the heat of the hot California sun, tempers flare and desires ignite as Solo and Panther try to resist their attraction while fighting to be number one.

With passion this intense, the question remains:

Who’s gonna come out on top?

About Brooke Blaine: 

You could say Brooke Blaine was a book-a-holic from the time she knew how to read; she used to tell her mother that curling up with one at 4 a.m. before elementary school was her ‘quiet time.’ Not much has changed except for the espresso I.V. pump she now carries around and the size of her onesie pajamas.

She is the author of Flash Point, a romantic suspense standalone, as well as the co-author of the erotic series, A Desperate Man, with Ella Frank. The latter has scarred her conservative southern family for life, bless their hearts. Licked, a romantic comedy, will be released November 11th, 2015 and is the first in the L.A. Liaisons series.

If you’d like to get in touch with her, she’s easy to find - just keep an ear out for the Rick Astley ringtone that’s dominated her cell phone for ten years.
