Sniper Team Bravo #2
No Impact
No impact on the target is the call that a sniper has missed, that their position is now compromised, and the firestorm it can bring could ultimately cost them their lives.
Riley Marksmen has wanted Marcel Cross from the moment they first met. He just had to convince Marcel that he wanted Riley just as bad. When his first attempt with Marcel results in no impact, he is convinced that a future with Marcel is worth the risk of trying again.
Marcel knows there is something between him and Riley. He just has to find the courage to take the gamble in the first place. When secrets are discovered, and a threat is revealed, it jeopardizes what they’ve only just started to build.
Can they find a way to the future they’ve targeted, or will their risk leave No Impact?

I write the kind of books that I love to read. Love stories between strong men and their independent soulmates. Usually, their path to Happily Ever After is a bumpy one, but there is always a Happy Ever After.
In the world's I create there is someone (or two, or three) for everyone! Love comes in many forms and I believe it is all beautiful and should be celebrated!
I live, love and write in New Zealand, married to my husband of eleven years with two beautiful children who I truly believe were sent as a blessing, but sometimes to try my patience, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Who the hell is Micah? I assume that was a mistake as later Marcel is also called Marvel and not in an intentional way.
So stupid that they have advance degrees but still had time to become the best snipers out there.
That description of what he was planning to do to Marcel sexually was really hot.
Good that they recognize that sex under the influence of any drug is nonconsensual and that a man slipped a Mickey has just as clearly been raped as a woman under the circumstances. It was great his team pushed him to press charges.
Do French speakers from Louisiana consider themselves French or Cajun?
I hate how nonchalant they are about forgetting to use condoms.
Actually, elephants move beautifully through water. They swim surprisingly well. I've seen them in person.
They have nail guns for 9 inch nails? That's got to be a big effing gun. Learn something new every day.
Wonderful they know how to deal with an object impaled in a body rather than just pulling it out.
Too much sex. It's hot but too much of it.
Why is there both a Marcel--once accidentally called Marvel even--and a Marvin as important characters. Too similar.
Eight years is too long for that kind of anger to fester without doing anything about it with the cause of the anger right there next to him almost everyday.
It's really silly that every good character is gay.
Good peril. Even a hospital scene, although not really a vigil.
I hate that the next one is clearly a ménage. I also hate that Glenn's story isn't next.
I'm glad that this time the MC saved the day.
Despite the dramatic situations, there really wasn't much suspense or tension.

Oh, where to start!! I'll just say that I totally loved this book. In fact, I think I like it better than the first one in this series. Marcel is a member of Sniper Team Bravo and meets Riley when his company is hired to do construction work at the teams home. The attraction is instant but Marcel tries to ignore it. It takes time but the two finally get together and it's just a beautiful thing. Someone is sabotaging the construction site though and when Riley gets hurt, Marcel gets very worried. Secrets and a twist that stunned me, puts their relationship on the rocks. Will they be able to find out who is trying to keep them apart? When Riley is abducted, will Marcel and his men be able to save him? If I could have given this more stars, I would have!! It's just that good!!! Just a word of warning though, this is a MM book so if you aren't into men in love, you should probably just skip this.

I love Marcel. Frenchy is so cool, calm and collected just like the rest of his team. Riley puts his foot in his mouth and doesn't communicate well. I mean when someone is trying to explain something to you, stay and actually listen.
As the compound is being built by Riley and his team, sabotage complicates Marcel and Riley's budding relationship.
Never saw who was involved coming. The familial connection has been implied before. Really entertaining and well thought out plot.
Please be aware that although the scene is after the fact, date rape occurs. Felt so bad for Glenn and Maddox. But their story is just beginning.

Incredible. Just Incredible.
I positively love this story. This is not just a typical mm romance. It is an incredible book that weaves together multiple story lines without losing focus of the specific MCs whose story it is. This will most absolutely be a re-read for me . I liked the first book in this series but I LOVE this book. It was unpredictable but still delivered the HEA. Often in this genre the only unpredictable stories are the ones that don't come with an HEA. Now, on to Book 3.

Book 2 in Sniper Team Bravo, I enjoyed Marcel and Riley's story. Both strong, intriguing individual with secrets they will need to bare. No Impact is well worth the read and a good follow up book to Their Line of Drift. I look forward to reading more

Marcel Cross was a sniper for the United States Marine Corps, along with his friends they made up Sniper Team Bravo. Although they were the best at what they did they were taken by surprise at times but when they had an RPG launched directly at them they realised it was time to retire. Their leader Devon Roberts had inherited his grandmother’s estate so they decided they would all join forces and start their own business Cottonwood Training Facility, hopefully with time it’ll become one the country’s leading tactical training facilities.
When Marcel first met Riley Marksman several months ago when he arrived to design and build the training facility it was lust at first sight on both sides. When Riley makes a huge mistake by insulting not only Marcel himself but his reflexes which just happen to be razor sharp! Marcel decides he’s wasting his time waiting for an ass like Riley and makes the decision to go out and get laid at the first opportunity, everything would be just fine except for the fact that even the thought of finding just any man to have sex with leaves cold for the first time in his life.
Riley is so frustrated with himself, he can’t believe he said that to Marcel! Not only does he have to find out who is sabotaging his jobsite but now he has to get Marcel to listen to him while he grovels. It takes a while but Riley gets Marcel to agree to give them a go. Whilst his relationship is going according to plan the sabotage is only getting worse. The further behind they get due to sabotage the more suspicious Riley gets about who could possibly want his job to fail and his men to get hurt.
As Marcel and Riley get closer one of Marcels teammates packs his bags and disappears. When they go to find out if his ‘partner’ knows anything about it they find that he has been abused and the man who did it is still in bed with him. The man is one of Riley’s workers and when he discovers what he’s done there is hell to pay. Although they rally around their teammate and try to talk some sense into him they can’t find their other teammate, he’s gone MIA.
When Riley finally tells Marcel about his childhood and how his father killed his mother when he was 8 and then he tried to kill him when the police came to get him. The only bad thing about that is that now he’s out of prison Riley has no idea where he is. Through investigating, Riley discovers that his father had another family and he has a half-brother. It takes quite a bit of searching and investigating but they do find out who is trying to sabotaging their plans. I would recommend that you read these books in order so that you can follow the story, they’re e not stand alone stories.

Bit heavy on the cheesy side, but much better than the last one.
