Description

There's only one way I know how to tell him what I feel.
I have to give him what I've never given anyone.
I'm going to ask him to be my first...

Matt Girard is the guy every girl wants. Rich, handsome, and popular, his future is brighter than the sun. Unlike mine.

I'm from the wrong side of town, and though he's been my best friend forever, he doesn't see the real me. The me who wants more than friendship.

I have a plan though. And it starts with a reckless dare...

*This is the prequel story to Hot Pursuit, Book 1 in the Hostile Operations Team - Strike Team 1 Series.

    This was a great start to a Hostile Operations Team and Matt and Evie’s story . Evie and Matt had been best friends since they were kids as they grew up Matt had lots of girls and Evie wanted to be the one . This leads to 10 years later and is picked up in Hot Pursuit . Can’t wait to start reading and find out how it goes . Hopefully a HEA .

    In this book we meet a teenage Matt and Evie from Hot Pursuit. It is a prequel novella for that book. Evie has been in love with Matt for years. They are a year apart in age and have been friends since they were six and seven. When they became teenagers he started distancing himself from her, and she just wants him to realize that they belong together. This is a good book and it it was nice to see where their story began.
  • Great read

    Reckless Heat takes us back to the beginning before Hot Pursuit and tells the story of Matt and Evie before Matt left Rochambeau, Louisiana. I love reading the beginning of their love story which then lead to me having to reread Hot Pursuit. If you haven't read this series yet, this is a great place to start. Enjoy.
  • Wow!

    I am a huge fan of the Hostile Operations Team series and adored Matt and Evie's story in book 1. I absolutely love that we got a chance to see them as teenagers in Reckless Heat. Reckless Heat is a novella length story and a super fast read. I guess since Matt and Evie were the first couple in the Hostile Operations Team series, they have an extra special place in my heart. I love a friends to lovers story and when you add in a reunion story, you have me from page one. Reckless Heat is Matt and Evie's story from the last few weeks they spend together before he heads off to West Point. I love that Evie and Matt where best friends from the time they were pretty young. I also absolutely loved that Evie had a crush on Matt and although he did know it, he really didn't want to do anything to possibly mess up their friendship. However, what teenage boy is going to turn down a teenage girl, even when it's his very best friend in the world? Honestly I though Matt was super sweet with Evie and I knew he didn't want to hurt her, but being a teenage guy, he just messed up once the deed was actually done. Of course Evie totally looked like she had been in the backseat with Matt and he was a total tool to brag to all his friends. Reckless Heat made me think of a high school keg party on the weekend and watching your best friend's drama play out before everyone. My heart broke for both Evie and Matt since neither really knew how to fix the situation. Reckless Heat was a super fast read for me. I loved the story came from alternating points of view and it is in first person point of view for those readers who aren't huge fans of first person point of view. I have no trouble with it and though it especially worked well with this story. I felt like I got new insight into Matt and Evie's relationship by seeing them together when they were teenagers.
  • Amazing!

    I absolutely loved reading Matt and Evie's book, Reckless Heat. It was so entertaining and so refreshing to see how they started out. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Lynn Raye Harris is an expert when it comes to second chance romance. Of course you'll get to read the second chance romance part in Hot Pursuit 😉
