Hot Pursuit (Black Knights Inc. #11)
by Julie Ann Walker
Blurb:
Christian
Watson, a former SAS officer and current BKI operator, never thought he would
return to England after a terrible turn of events forced him to abandon his
homeland. But now he's back on British soil where old enemies are determined to
do him in. Fighting for his life is pretty much SOP for Christian. Doing it
with the beautiful, bossy Emily Scott in tow is another matter entirely.
In
hot pursuit.
Emily
lost her coveted job at the CIA because of a colleague turned rogue, and now
she has just one rule when it comes to men: they're for recreational purposes
only. But when she and Christian are thrust into very close quarters while
evading two mysterious men who want Christian dead, she can't help but question
all her ideas about love and life lived on the edge. Battling the bad guys is
hard enough, battling her feelings for Christian just might prove impossible.

Review:
Well the story we have all been clamoring for
has finally arrived!
For
the longest time now readers have been dying to see Christian and Emily finally
quit circling around and crash into one another instead. The hot men and sexy woman of the BKI team
have been slowly falling in love and finding their way into a life that will
lead them away from the deep world of darkness they have lived in for so long,
but in my eyes they have saved the world over so many times that they deserve a
chance to retire in love and happiness.
Julie Ann has been giving us little glimpses of the heat between Christian
and Emily for a while now but we have never gotten the full picture of the
connection these two would forge. The
danger and drama they find themselves in always means more high powered and
sensual connections when they do come together, but the silliness and sweetness
that they also found together was the most surprising and wonderful part of
this story for me. Emily is a woman that has a lot of baggage in both her
previous professional and personal relationships and she doesn’t give her trust
easily, but she is also a woman that knows who she is and what she needs from a
man to make him the perfect mate for her.
Christian has lived for so long with the mistakes of his past and the
betrayals that lead him into the BKI family, but he has resisted Emily until
the resistance has truly become futile.
Now that he has had her in his arms and his bed, no way is he letting
her go, and being the sneaky and sexy secret operator he is, his plan to convince
her that she needs him just as much is truly diabolical and I LOVED IT! I
really enjoyed every second of this story and don’t want to give away too much
by sharing all the greatness, but I will say that if you love a hot and sexy
man (and to top it all off he has a British accent, y'all) and a sassy and
hardass woman, then Hot Pursuit will be just the read for you. I am dying to read the next (Last?) book in
the series coming soon and look forward to getting to know Angel and seeing the
full story of the mysterious and sexy secret member of BKI that was have only
just gotten to know a bit more about.
