Tied Up In Steele by Annabella Stone

Amazon Link

Blurb:

Steele Givens doesn’t do relationships and he knows better than to fall for a man he rescued during a CIA Operation; but then he’s never been a ‘follow the rules’ kinda man. He always swore he’d never drag someone he cared about into a world of danger. But what do you do, when danger stalks him anyway?

Kalon Roberts wanted to move on. He’s done with danger and Black Ops Operators. But when someone is determined to use him to gain his father's cooperation, the man who comes to save him, is the one who broke his heart.

They should have never met. They should never have been in each other's orbits. But now that they are, Steele will take out everything and everyone in his way to make sure that Kalon makes it out alive.

Tied Up In Steele is part of the Delta Force - Team Panther Series. While it can be read as a standalone... to ensure maximum enjoyment, it is best read after Jonah's Compass.

REVIEW
My Rating - 5 Stars!

Tied Up In Steele is the 2nd book in the Delta Force Series by Annabella Stone.

In this book, Steele falls for Kalon, who has escaped capture and is interrogated by Steele. His job will not make it easy for them to be together though. And Steele is willing to sacrifice his happiness to protect Kalon. 

Personally, I love their relationship as it starts. After that, I have a tough time with everything they had to endure. It helps though that the action is fast paced, thus not allowing me to be sad for too long. 

The book contains capturing criminals, interrogation scene, an intense car chase, a crazy partner, captures and rescues, undercover work, and some nice romance. Best of all, it includes the fun men in Steele's Delta Force team. They all add a lot of fun and heart-felt moments to the book.

I really like this book. I have to go back and read book 1 immediately, just to get more of these guys! I enjoy a good romance with big, strong guys. And I love the twists, turns, and mysteries in this book. 

I definitely recommend Tied Up In Steele to anyone who enjoys a good action-packed romance. I know I will be impatiently waiting for Book 3!

REVIEW

This is book 3 is the Decadent series and you need to read them in order.

When Tam is beaten up by Giovanni, Casen is the one who finds him and helps him.  Tam was ready to give up that night, but Casen saved him. This changes Tam, who is determined to do better and sets up a new life plan.

When Casen transfers to Tam's school, he is excited to find out about how Tam is doing now and what happened to him after that night.  They have a big obstacle facing them if they want to be friends though.  It ends up that Casen is Grayson's cousin.  Tam knows that Grayson will never let them be friends.  

I loved that Elaine White was able to take a character like Tam, who was previously so hated, and redeem him and make him likeable.   Hearing his view on the things that previously happened completely changes everything.    And pairing him with a man like Casen was perfect.  They are just wonderful for each other.

This is a wonderful continuation of the series.   All of the men in the series are so broken and flawed.  Watching them save each other, find out who they really are, and bettering themselves is fantastic.  Seeing them all do horrible things and then redeem themselves is just captivating.  It has been a great journey and I look forward to more.
