A female Russian spy holds the key to finding Vander's brother. Can he trust her?

Navy SEAL Vander Knight usually relies on fear and intimidation to extract intel from an enemy, but his standard tactics won't work on the red-headed spitfire he's tasked with questioning.
He'll have to resort to building rapport with his sexy prisoner to coax her into revealing her secrets.
Breaking Misha without falling for her may be the toughest battle he'll ever face, but with his brother's life on the line, failure is not an option.

Misha refuses to yield to the demands of the gorgeous commando who has taken her captive.
Even if he bribes her with a sweet stray puppy, she won't tell him anything about her double life as a Russian agent.
She'll simply retaliate with a seduction that will bring him to his knees.
Vander may be a worthy opponent, but he's not the only one who can fight dirty.

I dont know wtf I did to the book fairies, but this is the THIRD book in a row where someone calls the FMC “kitten.” *eyeroll*

There are no transitions between scenes. It’s very Waffle House scattered, smothered, chunked hash browns…. Only these are like strewn across the entire tabletop verses being on your plate.

What The Ever-Hating Fuck Is This Shit

She’s a kingpin’s whore. No, she’s a Russian spy whore. Who can fight. She’s captured. She will never talk. No, wait, she will talk if there are spiders, snakes, or dogs. Guess what… there’s a dog, almost like the blue dog from her childhood 🤦‍♀️. Suddenly she’s a wanton woman falling for her captor. Don’t worry… he sees the real her - ie the Russian wonton whore wants to ride his hot dog, which just means she’s “truly sublime, sweet, hot, and submissive underneath all the other shit and despite shooting him like 24 hours ago.

The same couple of unanswered questions on repeat and a bad dream is all it took for the MMC to fall head over puss.

Geezus.

This mofo kidnapped said woman because don’t every kingpin lay out all his dirty deeds to his whore mistress? She must know where his brother is! Once she says… uh, yeah, I heard my kingpin say he had an American, we immediately jump to the MMC deciding it would be a great idea to say yes to the wonton woman rubbing her puss on his hot dog. Uhm, wtf happened to finding his brother in the hands of the kingpin. …. ‘Hold on, bro, let me tap this ass’ …

At least he admits he’s TSTL…

A guy follows his dick and gets it chopped off.

Anyway, the completely unrealistic just deepens…

In a hostage exchange, the,uh, hostage should act like a hostage. Not push her way to the front like she has any sort of f’ing say in shit . Lol

"Why'd you do that? You promised him his brother." …What kind of man would do that?

The Russian spy, the whore, the wonton captive… all her personalities are SAF, TSTL, dumb as a turnip. Did she seriously just ask why a kingpin would lie and not keep his word?!? Really. Like really??!?

I’ve read some stupid shit in my day, but ^ that shit takes the cake.

Asking him directly where he was holding him would raise too much suspicion.

Nah, asking your kingpin lover where the brother of the guy that kidnapped you is would be suspicious? You don’t say! I wonder if asking him why he lied to her kidnapper was suspicious? I wonder if showing up with a new puppy that your kidnapper gave you would be suspicious?!?

Just when you think it can’t possibly get more nonsensical, it does.

Since just asking is out of the question and it never crosses her mind to just be wtf she is - a spy - … her big plan is to purposefully blow her cover (paper thin though it may be) and piss her kingpin lover off so that he might send her to the same prison as the MMC’s brother.

^ Say what, now. Mmkay. You do that.

I shut my eyes. Closed my Kindle. Said a prayer for all the lost ink, web space, electricity, and whatever else went into creating this book. This is an hour of my life that would’ve been better spent using tweezers to collect every spec of dirt in my yard.

Overall…

Bullshit on all sides of the cow patty. Makes top 10 worst books I’ve ever read.

This is my first read by this author and it won't be my last. Full of action and sizzling scenes this story will take you on an adventure. It started with so much action you have to wonder what else can happen. Vander is a former navy SEAL, is there really former, I think once a SEAL always a SEAL. His training has him doing the same kind of work without the regulations. Misha, just who is she? Is she really the bad guy's mistress or so much more? You'll be wondering if she's good or bad or trapped.
Great story, I couldn't put it down.

Vander is LIVE on Amazon. Go read it now! You will love it! Hot chemistry, exciting characters and plot, and an ending you'll never forget!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0973GJM7G/...

teaser: "Why are you doing this? I didn't contact you to have you stand in judgment of my life. I wanted to fuck," I spat it in his face, "in a hotel room and leave." I made an X with my hands and chopped away the invisible strings tying me to this man and the tormenting words he was shoving in my face. "That's it. You run a fucking escort service. You don't get this concept?"


Excerpt:
The sheets rustled and the springs creaked. Through thin slits of my barely open eyes, I watched her slip out of the bed and peel off her clothes.
My heart rate slowed, and I switched to stealth predator mode. Alert on the inside, unmoving on the outside.
She approached me cautiously like I was an IED that could explode in her path. I absolutely was as volatile as a bomb, and she was right to move slowly. Of course, she shouldn't be moving at all considering her situation.
She walked over to where I was sitting and stood between my legs. The only coverage she had was a flimsy lace bra that looked about two sizes too small for her gorgeous tits and an equally lacy and just as dangerous pair of underwear.
Jade really needed to stop treating the hostages like spa guests. Cotton underwear would've been more than generous and a lot less lethal, but this woman would probably tempt my resolve no matter what she wore.
She was a knockout by every standard. Big eyes, full lips, tan skin, round tits, curvy hips, legs that never ended. Movie star beauty. The opposite of me and my scarred face and crooked nose. Everything about her turned me on, but the reality was she was my captive and much too close.
I struck like the Viper I truly was, grabbing her wrists with a tight grip she couldn't escape. She gasped and pulled back, but I held firm, forcing her to stay close to me.
We stared at each other for a long second. She was likely calculating the risks just as I was doing.
I drew her hands behind her back which brought her tits right below my face. "Careful, Kroshka." The word for "little one" slipped out. She'd used it earlier for Blue, and I thought it fit her too. She had a lot of lost puppy in her.
"I'm no little one." The sultry vixen voice had returned along with her sexy-as-hell confidence.
"To me you are."
She arched her back and breathed out as her tits brushed my chin. The hellcat was horny and wanted to play.
Damn. My dick was already rock hard. I didn't touch women when I was deployed. I didn't jack off. In the field, you survive. Your physical needs are eating and sleeping. Keeping your weapon close and ready. Paying any attention to your dick could get you killed, but I knew she couldn't overpower me and I couldn't summon the strength to turn her away. I'd be giving up so much. The heat coming off her, the long hair cascading over her incredible tits, all of it right in front of me like a buffet.
The stitches of the injury pulled tight as I removed my weapons and placed them on a table out of her reach.
She craned her neck, bending her head forward to tempt her lips next to mine, begging me to kiss her. I looked at her pouty lips but kept my distance. Even though my restraint was hanging by a tattered thread, I'd shown her no external response that would encourage her. This was all her.
I tugged her arms back as a warning. "Don't do this, Kroshka."
"I'm not doing anything," she said as she climbed up on my lap and straddled my hips. I wasn't encouraging her, but I also wasn't stopping her.
I ground my teeth together. "You're playing with dynamite, woman." All my muscles were strung tight like a slingshot ready to discharge.
She pulled forward and managed to press her lips to my jaw in a soft, hot kiss. Her lips were every bit as luscious as I'd imagined.
I looked to the ceiling and took a deep breath. "Damn."
At the first sign I'd let slip that she was affecting me, she grinned and rolled her core over my dick through the fabric between us.
On her next pass, she found the line of my shaft through my pants and drilled in on it. The contact caused my balls to draw up and my dick to twitch. My cock did not give a shit if this was wrong and dangerous. It wanted to dive into her tight wet heat.
No. I had to keep my cool.
That's when her scent hit me. Feminine and sweet. It would be my undoing, that scent.
She let out a ragged sigh and rubbed her hot core up and down on my cock again. "It's huge." She panted and let out a tiny whimper.
Shit. Fuck. She was getting herself off with the friction. If she didn't stop, I'd lose the tenuous hold I had on my control. If she did stop, I'd lose control too. That was it. I would not survive this.
"Open your pants for me. It feels so good and so big. I want to see it." Her velvet voice triggered another surge of lust to my cock. Lethal. This woman was absolutely lethal.
"Tell me your real name." My strained words stuck in my throat with the mammoth effort it took to hold back.
"No," she said coyly, like she had no clue she had just climbed up on a viper's lap and was about to get bitten by his fangs.
"Say your name and I'll open my pants for you. Give you everything you need." I spoke through clenched teeth, swallowing hard with the effort of forcing my body to do the opposite of what it craved.
"No," she repeated mischievously as she writhed on my dick.
Through the fog of tits and pussy on my brain, I struggled to focus on her motivation. What did she really want from me right now? Not just my cock. What else was working behind those beautiful eyes? "C'mon, you're desperate for it. You want me to fuck the real you. You want me to say your real name when my cock strokes your sweet pussy. You want me to moan it when I lose control and explode inside you." As much as I wanted to, I had no intention of fucking her. I'd say what it took to get her name.
She mewled, her hips still rocking mine in the cruelest of tortures. The fabric of my pants started to get wet from her exuberant oscillations. I should tie her hands back so my fingers would be free to fuck all that wetness coming from her.
No. I absolutely could not take it that far.
"Say your name," I gritted out.
Her hair fell over her eyes as she shook her head. So sexy and distracting. I forced myself to focus on the goal. Fucking her senseless.
No. No. The goal was to extract information. Jesus. I'd totally lost all restraint, and all she'd done was ride me over my clothes.
"You're showing me the real you right now. I can see her. She's fucking beautiful. Tell me who she really is."
She chewed her lip, and I jutted my chin to suck it out of her teeth. I growled and nipped her bottom lip as I pulled it taut and released it. "Tell me your real name." I tugged her arms back, creating more space between us and threatening to end this if she didn't comply. It would be hard as hell to tear her off me right now so hopefully this was the last time I had to ask. "What's your name?"
"Misha," she finally whispered.
Thank God. "Misha." Her name rolled off my tongue like it belonged there. "Misha," I said again with reverence. "Feels good to hear me say it. Doesn't it?"
Her shoulders relaxed, and her arms went limp. "Yes."
My hellcat had submitted. We were done. I had her real name. I should've stopped, but no man, even one of my strength and countenance, could turn down the woman sitting on my lap especially after she'd given control over to me exactly as I'd wanted. She'd put her trust in me, and I was going to reward her for it.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "BLUE HONOR"
OMG!!!! This book starts off with a bang pulls you right into major chaos, intense riviting drama, suspense, intrigue, angst, secrets, lies, humor, hot steamy scenes, twist that make this a very addicting read.
Vander Knight is a former Navy Seal that specialize in brutal interrogation tactics & intimidation to get intel from enemies his team as well their Special Ops with Knight Security looking for his brother Teague aka Steel who has been taken.
Vander & his team capture Skyler mistress to Drug Lord Ruben Duran who has his brother they need her for info on where he is & use her to exchange for his brother.
Skyler/Misha is a Hellcat to capture Vander was shot by her fighting to not be taken there's more to her than meets the eye he knows when trying to interrogate her she's had training he thinks she's a Russian Spy.

I definitely recommend to get this excellently written book that won't disappoint such an addicting story with awesome captivating characters a must have for sure I hope there's more stories to come with this crew loved it.

This one started out with action that you had no idea where it would lead to. Just as the story started out on a bang so did the relationship between Vander and Misha. The attraction is real and so are the emotions. But Vander has a job to do and he can't let his emotions get in the way of the mission or can he?

Misha has been down this road before. She's a chameleon that changes according to the circumstances and simply does as she's told. She knows better than to get involved with anyone who may compromise her precarious situation.

Can Vander and Misha build something strong despite their dealings in espionage and deception?

This one has action, romance, suspense, drama and some humor.

If you are a fan of Bex Dane you won't want to miss this one.

Blue Honor

When I saw this was only 250 pages I thought it would be too short, I thought there’s no way the author can get you invested in the characters and give adequate details in such a short amount of pages…
But 1/2 way though, after the Strong as Steel mission, I think the book could have ended and I would have been perfectly content.
I knew then this book would be getting 5 stars from me… when they were on the plane and uncovered Blue, I teared up. I was just so happy they didn’t leave the dog
The other 125 pages were just a bonus
I finished this book and didn’t feel like there were 100 unanswered questions, or that the book was rushed

Powerful! Amazing! Must read!
I was held hostage from the first chapter. So intense! This book will keep you on the edge of your seat. There are secrets, mystery, power, lies, truths, and so much more. I loved the way Skylar and Vander bantered. You could feel the sexual tension between them. That first scene was so HOT! 🔥 Bex Dane, once again, wrote an amazing book. You won't be able to put this book down.

This totally outstanding book grabs you at the start and never lets you go. Misha is so tuff and full of pain she does whatever it takes to survive. Vander is the strongest most protective character I’ve met in a long time. There is so much action, adventure, danger, passion and more running through every page. I didn’t want to stop once I started.

Misha/ Skyler meets Vander/Viper when his team kidnap her, trying to find the whereabouts of his brother, Steel/Teague.
Misha was undercover in Colombia trying to trap a drug dealer for the Russians. She didn't want to be there, she wanted out.
Vander was there to do a job, but the moment he sees her he's enraptured.
Things go pear shaped when there was supposed to be an exchange of victims.

A great romantic suspense from Bex.

From the get-go, I was sucked in to this storyline. The chemistry these two have is amazing and made me feel invested in their journey. Although Misha and Vander have a lot in common (strong, kick ass, and loyal), they are on opposite sides. I burned through the pages so I could see how they made it to their HEA! Great book!

Wow! What an exciting read. You name it and it is in this story. You will experience so many emotions as the story is utterly captivating. The characters and happenings seam to jump off the pages like a 3D movie, everything is so intense. The actions on the missions, interactions between the characters and lets talk about sexual heat between Misha and her hunky Navy Seal Vander. I couldn't put it down. I cannot get enough of Bex Dans's books.

Where to begin.... this book was so bad I didn't even finish it - and that says a lot as I very rarely do that! The storyline, the characters, everything made me want to vomit across my Kindle reading this.

Spoilers!!!

Vander Knight
For a hardened Navy Seal who basically wrestled grizzly bears for breakfast during SEAL training, he's about as sharp as a butter knife… top of his game?! My ass… more like top of the mole hill.

Here we have this hardened ex-Navy Seal, and within 24 hours, he ends up not only screwing his prisoner because she is the best thing he has ever seen – no, no, no, he also screws up a prisoner exchange which, according to himself, he has done a million times before. She basically has him forgetting all his training and turned him into a lovesick puppy …

And don't even get me started on the interrogation! The team practically has to shove a metaphorical cattle prod into his backside to get him to do his bloody job (not like his brothers’ life depend on it…!). One look into her tearful little eyes and he's ready to roll out the red carpet and offer her a cup of tea and a biscuit. Honestly, you'd think he was interrogating a runaway kitten, not someone who might hold the key to the whole blinking operation!


Misha
You picture a Russian spy, right? All steely glare and leather jumpsuit, channelling their inner Natasha Romanoff. Not this lot, let me tell you that! This "deadly agent" is about as intimidating as a soggy teabag. When she is captured she is absolutely determined to be a silent movie star – lips sealed tighter than a tupperware container full of last week's quesadillas. But hold and behold, five pages later, just the mention of spiders, snakes would have more chatty than a gossip columnist at a fashion show. Good thing, that our strong, brave Navy Seal doesn’t find out….

But I give you 3 guesses as to what softens her up like butter? A bloody puppy, of course! Apparently, all it takes to crack this Russian spy is a furry reminder of her childhood. Now she's cooing over the little nipper like it's the crown jewels and spilling her secrets faster than you can say "doggy breath!" Who knew a bit of canine cuteness could be more effective than years of interrogation techniques?


Summary:
This book? More like a literary shipwreck.... I tossed it onto the DNF pile faster than anything before. And that is saying a LOT!
Honestly, the glowing reviews left me baffled! Perhaps they were reading a completely different book, one filled with an actual plot and characters who wouldn't make cardboard seem interesting.

Head of Knight Security, former SEAL Vander ‘Viper’ Knight is determined to retrieve his brother from one of Columbia’s most notorious trafficker’s torture room. The best way to do that is to kidnap his mistress, Skyler. She’s not what Vander expected. Not only is she trained in seduction, she also knows her way around firearms but doesn’t know much to help.

To get the info he needs from Skyler, Vander offers personal truths and a gift. It works, In exchange Vander learns Skyler’s actually Russian agent Misha. A woman with no past or future beyond her Russian agency’s marching orders. Vander’s surprised to realize he gave Misha his heart as well and is glad to have received hers in return. But that’s just personal.

Our grandchildren? Van whats going on here?

If you haven't fallen in love with the cover of the book and the hot( and you'll find out how hot) Navy Seal who is the leader and owner of Knight Security yet you won't have to read far before you are sitting on the edge of the seat trying to turn pages faster as you are so anxious to see the hunk in action!?? And I mean either the Rambo type or the softer edge as he makes total love to the woman who steals his heart, body, and soul! This is a book I couldn't wait to read the next page and reread the “good” parts again! I couldn't put it down and am sold on reading the who series!

The story follows Mishka and Vander. A Russian spy and a former Navy SEAL. The story starts in Colombia and the things that happen are a little far fetched for me. The development of the actual relationship seems to brief to be as involved as they are though the sex scenes are super hot! Bearing in mind all that's against them, the resolution seemed a bit too straight forward and I wasn't convinced although I do love a HEA.

I would read the next book to see if the series becomes more my cup of tea but it's not going to be my very next book.

I was expecting a lot more action in this book than there was by the description about the book. The book was almost pure romance with a little action thrown in for good measure. Most military romance books are usually the other was around. But as pure enjoyment goes this was not a bad book, I did not have to think about anything as I read this book and after the book I just finished reading before this one that is a good thing.

'Blue Honor' was an interesting 3.5-star read. Its fast-paced and a little far-fetched plot was filled with intrigue, suspense, some action, and lust. Furthermore, the main characters, Vander and Misha, spent too much time getting it on instead of mainly focusing on getting her out of the Russian SVG. However, adding Blue, the puppy, to the mix was a nice touch.
