Hugh\u2019s on the straight and narrow until his rescue mission puts him in contact with Amelia. Now he\u2019s checking on her and her nephew in the hospital; concerned with emotions he hasn\u2019t felt in a long time. When Amelia and her nephew are kidnapped, Hugh doesn\u2019t think twice about jumping onto the back of van and doing his damnedest to save them. Even if embedding them into his life is cracking away the emotional blockade around his heart.<\/p>\n<p>Amelia just wants to keep her nephew safe, at least until she can find his mother and father. The survival instinct is raging, and she can\u2019t stop dwelling on her attraction to Hugh. He\u2019s gone out of his way to help her, in more ways then she can count. As the danger increases and she\u2019s forced into closer quarters with Hugh, Amelia has to decide if her feelings are just spurned by the circumstances or if her heart truly falling for this superman.<\/p>\n<p>The second book in Mann\u2019s <em>Elite Force<\/em> series is definitely not one to judge by the first pages. At first I didn\u2019t believe I would get into the story. The idea of a romance unfolding at the scene of an earthquake seemed a little far-fetched for me. The setting and background were heart breaking, and emotional; nothing escapist about it. Mann has a penchant for grabbing you with emotion\u2014feelings cold, warm, raw and afflicted. The characters were deep and quickly entangled my thoughts until I had to know if Hugh and Amelia were going to overcome the ridiculous odds. When I say ridiculous, I mean just that because everywhere this pair turned there was trouble\u2014earthquake shakes, gun wielding fanatics, you name it. Regardless of the tension and conflicts Mann does a miraculous job of balancing internal issues with external, giving readers a chance to get lost in the minds of two people focused on survival, while dealing with a ton of emotional baggage from their past.<\/p>\n<p>There is one subplot I could have done without, which involves Hugh\u2019s superior, Liam McCabe. The addition of this added a little too much head jumping. I would have enjoyed just a Hugh and Amelia story versus getting involved in the early directions of McCabe\u2019s story that is coming up in the next book. For me this killed or numbed my emotions, and slowed the story down. I was more enthralled with the direct romance between Hugh and Amelia.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Mann is excellent at keeping the suspense rolling, and once you get into the story you can\u2019t help but wonder if someone is going to end up severely hurt or worse. A good read if you\u2019re looking for something to start on in the suspense arena.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating: <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">3 (Satisfactory) <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat-Level: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">4 (Hot)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Reviewed by<\/em> <strong> Landra<\/strong><\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-8007\" data-postid=\"8007\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-8007 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hot Zone Author: Catherine Mann Publisher: Sourcebooks Pub.
