Ultimate Recon #1
Darwin's Evolution
Sometimes retirement is a helluva lot of work…
Retired Marine Master Sergeant Sadie Hawkins is ready for a quiet life with her mother in northern Arizona. No more recon, no more shots fired. Hell, she might even give romance a try if she finds the right guy. Like the one asleep on her shoulder on the train.
Cyrus “Darwin” Finch retired from the Navy SEALs and now runs Ultimate Recon, a security, surveillance, and rescue company employing retired members of the four branches of the U.S. military. He’s on “forced” vacation and is supposed to relaxing, dammit. Until he meets Sadie.
When they discover a foreign enemy setting up a domestic retreat in Sadie’s backyard, romance and vacations take a backseat. There are no calm seas or clear skies with bullets flying, and no time for a Happy Ever After. But SEALs never give up and Marines never surrender.

I read this the first time a couple years ago when it first came out in Kindle World's (No longer a thing.) Hot SEALs world. Loved it then and thoroughly enjoyed the re-read. Having a Marine and a Navy SEAL come together . . . Explosive! Even if you are not familiar with the origins of the Hot SEALs, you will enjoy this book. Enough background is given so there is no mystery. I am excited about this re-release. Maybe I can look forward to seeing more of Ultimate Recon. I liked the characters. Also, even though there is definite potential for more stories, this is one of the few books that I read during the Kindle Worlds era that I didn't feel had a rushed ending. It felt like a complete story, not something that got cut off because of word count restrictions. Thank you.

A Hot Start to a New SEAL Adventure
If you love Ms. Muir other series The Bad Boys of Beta Squad, you'll fall in love with this Ultimate Recon series. Sadie is headed home to Williams, Arizona after retiring from the Marines and 28 years of service. On the train, her seat mate, Cyrus has fallen asleep on her shoulder. Little does she know that they will both need to help Sadies's fight off a developer who is anxious for her land.
Cyrus "Darwin" Finch is a retired Navy SEAL who owns Ultimate Recon, who employ elite former military members based at Whidbey Island, Washington but he's on vacation after his final SEAL mission in Columbia against the Casita decides la Sabiduria cartel and his first year in business.
Both Sadie and Darwin hit it off immediately and he doesn't hesitate to help out when her mom is threatened again. After a bit of recon with Ray they discover that Cyrus maybe up against n old enemy.
I really hope this is a new series and that we'll get to meet the rest of the Ultimate Recon team and that Alissa and Ray will get their own stories.

This is book 1 in the new Hot SEALs series, it is a stand alone book with a HEA. Swede is an awesome hot hero and Allie will make you fall in love. I recommend to all romance readers. The book will take you on an adventure and keep you wanting more. Looking forward to the next book in the series. Happy Reading.

I really enjoyed this story. I am hoping Muir will put on the Ultimate Recon series soon. I would love to see Cyrus and Sadie's relationship blossom, Viking find his woman and Sadie's mom get an HEA. This is Kindle World Novella which comes from Cat Johnson's Hot SEALs.
