Delta Force: Team Panther #6
Grif's Salvation
Do no harm. It’s a mantra former Delta Force Team Panther medic, Griffin St. Clare, follows to the letter—until someone comes after his family. He’ll do whatever it takes to keep them safe, even if it puts his own life on the line. Grif knows the only way he can fix things, including his own broken heart, is to find his man, bring him home, and open himself to love again, but getting his family back together is going to be a challenge—especially considering his guy is AWOL.
Garrett ‘Rock’ Rockwell is used to dealing with trouble, but betrayal is another matter. After the devastating blow Shar delivered, he thought he would never want another woman in his bed again, but Allie has awoken something in him he can’t explain. Rock loves Grif, but they both know something is missing from their life—a third. Is Allie the right person to fill the hole left behind, or is getting into something new with a teammate’s sister a bad idea?
Allie Kennedy has always loved her bosses. She regretted not taking a chance with them before, but now they are finally free, she is determined to help her two troubled warriors heal. Grif and Rock may have had their hearts hurt, but Allie will prove to them that bruised is not broken.
Their path has never been straight or perfect. Many times, it hasn’t even gone in the right direction, but can Grif and Rock open themselves up to loving more than each other once more? Can Allie get them to trust her enough to give them all one more shot at happily ever after, or will Grif and Rock refuse to see what has been right in front of them all along?

There is no worse fear than someone hurting your family and when your own lover is the cause it is a double edged sword. Griff has taken this hit personally and it has caused havoc within his relationship with Rock. They both are holding onto the blame for putting Allie and her daughter in harm's way, while at the same time will not admit that Allie can make their triad complete. Will they both walk away from each other and a possible future with Allie because the stakes are too high? Or can they overcome the heartbreak of almost losing everything? Annabella Stone has knocked this one out of the park. Each story n the series gets better and better and the emotion that she writes into her rough and tough alpha males makes this and the rest of the series a must read.

Nul 👎 😒!!!!!!!! Problèmes non résolus entre Griff et Rock. Pas vu l’utilité d’une troisième partie dans la relation surtout féminine excepté pour le côté pornographique de la chose. Griff et Rock intègre l’autre et fini leur complicité. Niveau physique l’auteure ne voit le côte pénétration qu’avec la partie féminine et pas du côté masculin. Ce qui enlève le côté partage et égalitaire de la relation. L’histoire n’est absolument pas satisfaisante que soit sentimentale ou intrigue. Trop dans les détails techniques et peu dans le relationnel pour déboucher sur rien. Méchant pas arrêté et manque de profondeur de la relation. Lorsqu’on subit trahison et abandon au moment de besoin, c’est des pilules dures avalées. Donc le je passe à autre chose et je remplace lol, pas crédible. Oh 😮 le côté c’était pas la bonne non plus, écriture paresseuse et médiocre. Griff et Rock ont passé plus de temps à jouer aux pères au foyer, au lieux de réparer leur relation correctement et d’essayer de vraiment avoir lien profond avec la troisième partie Allie. Pour faire de leur relation une vraie histoire qui tiendra la route. Pfff écriture moins qu’amateur et médiocre. Tout au plus un brouillon. Ne valait pas le temps et l’achat.
Sentiments globaux déception et regrets de mettre faite encore avoir. Expérience non renouvelable.

I loved this story so much. Rock is a leader, he is alpha in all he does, it's in-grained into his soul. Betrayal hit him hard, he ran instead of staying with Griff and the teams, now he is the one needing help. Allie and Griff finally get news but it's not good, this time it's just the two of them to the rescue. It was tense and suspenseful, we get a conclusion, but that just unravels even more questions and lines of investigation. Little Lexi is the star of this book though, glitter bullets, nail polish, Papa and Daddy plus all the Uncas, she is bright and intelligent way older than her years and I can see the little pink combat boots growing into adult ones as she grows up. No wonder any of the teams would willingly die to save her. Popcorn and jellies, Flopsie and her family means all is well in her world. There is some action and violence at certain parts of this but mostly it was about re-connecting, love and building relationships as Rock is brought back into the bigger family fold. It was beautiful and emotional, had me tense then smiling big, even chuckling as glitter bullets flew. What a joyful read this one was even with the over plot still continuing.

This was hard to read because sexual connection between the three of them looked unnatural and forced.
It would be better if that part evolved from deep friendship love and trust they established through the years. That there were more tenderness and longing for a small touch, just to be close to each other. Because they all lost someone important to them. Alli considered to get back to her ex. Instead, only 4 months later they all have a lot of sexual thoughts about each other, distrust between them and repetition of that nobody of them needs triad.

When you have a snake in the hen house - how to recover & rebuild?
Delta Force Team Panther Books 1 to 7, by Author: Annabella Stone
Jonah's Compass, Tied Up In Steele, Malik's Redemption, Micah's Promise, Christmas Panther Style, Grif's Salvation and Jason's Justice.
I was addicted Book 1 to 7 I couldn't put it down. It has Special Ops Military action the non stop rescue at the risk of their own lives and their families. Then add in in Military Operations telling the good guys from the bad is extremely difficult. Not to mention its all based on intel which is another challenge good vs bad. Its amazing any if these missions are ever successful. This gives a new respect 🙌 for Mitary & Mercenaries Heros that risk it all to defend & rescue.
With 7 books I just can't do each book Justice so extremely brief comment on a few. Terrific written extremely well
☆☆☆☆☆5 Star Reviews☆☆☆☆☆
Book 1 Jonah & Matt, you have to read even if you skip the rest. The Don't as Don't Tell nightmare it put on LGBT Military is horrific.
Book 2 Steele to have Alphabet Soup (CIA, FBI, Ghost, Delta & more) and the connections to reach them impressive. More so is the one tha captures his heart.
Book 3 Malik & Zeke, To die to protect the ones you love the upmost sacrifice. Risk it all for love?
Book 4 Micah intro to Triad to build his family. Hawk, Creed & Delta K9 assist with Micahs PTSD.
Book 5 Allie the Pilot on Ghost Crew has her child Lexi is endangered & Pathers find out a huge Betrayl.
Book 6 Grif, Rock and Allie another Triad in ghis team. After Book 5 this Family holds some surprise. Life & death assist with living.
Book 7 Jason this is one of my favorite- i reread it twice. High walls but Major Fritz stays strong & being taken brings the walls down.
This series is a keeper, one you can reread over & over.V3 knidnap. Torture, sold out +, S3 mature Gay romance & Triad

The last time we saw our Pathers, Allie’s daughter, Lexi had been kidnapped by Shar, Grif and Rock’s Third partner. The sense of betrayal that this had on the guys was enormous. After saving young Lexi…Rock took off leaving Grif alone to deal with the sense of betrayal and loneliness and heartache all on his own. Rock…I get it…he was devesatated and heartbroken and he needed to know…Why?!? How?!? But the way in which Rock went about it, yeah that sucked. It really pissed me off…I mean, he left Grif there alone to deal with the betrayal…just left him alone when they could have been together trying to heal themselves.
Grif…I’ve always liked Grif. He’s such a good guy and he has ALWAYS had his team(s) back. Never flintching from whatever was coming his way and to have the man that he’s loved for so many years just desert him…yeah…he’s a better person than me. To go after him and find a way to forgive him…yeah…a better person than me.
Allie, yeah this wasn’t so much a surprise after getting into the story that they’d fall for her and her for them. Allie is tough and kickass in her own right and doing the job that she does as well as being a mom…you have to give her props on this. I like that she was there and could help bridge the gap between the two men.
This was another wonderful installment to this series and I can’t believe that thestories keep getting better and better everytime. I always know I’m in for a wonderful adventure with some romance and action.

Alright, let's start at the beginning. This book was not good. Very few writers succeed in depicting MMF polyamorous relationships accurately, and this story is just another example of that.
The primary emphasis of the story was on "healing" Rock, although the book is titled Grif's Salvation.
Issue No. 2: It appeared as though the plot and the inclusion of Alli in the trio were arbitrary and forced. "Aha! We chose the wrong third person the last time. Let's go back and choose the right one." The dynamics of the relationship between Grif and Rock and the reasons behind their belief in the necessity of a third party were not addressed.
Furthermore, how is Allie, who is a member of the Ghost unit, supposed to stay in touch with her mother and brother if they are all people whose countries have declared deMicah's,
Micah, Grif's, and Rock's artificial animosity is the third issue. There was no need for this scene, and it advanced the plot in no way. Considering the plot of the earlier books—that a teammate has a relationship with another teammate's brother while Micah himself is involved in a polyamorous relationship—it was hilarious. To believe that Micah would trust Rock and Grif, his brothers in arms, to have his six in war, but they are all of a sudden unworthy of his sister?!?! This scene could have served as a comedic relief moment instead of an unnecessary fight.
The introduction of Alli sidelines the Grif and Rock relationship, transforming the MM romance into a reverse harem instead of maintaining its polyamorous nature. The emphasis is no longer on the feelings of attraction between the two men; rather, it begins to focus on how each man interacts with her.
There are too many plot holes, the dialogue is overused, and the writing is poor overall.
There was Lexi, though. She has the cutest little voice of any four-year-old I've ever heard.

Fun and exciting
I was so happy to get Grif and Rocks story. But really, the star of this book is little Lexi. She rules all these big bad soldiers with her little pink combat boots and glitter bombs. After Griff gets Rock back and gets him to open up, they finally get around to discussing having Allie as their third in their triad. After some back and forth and some hard words from others, they get together as they should have been all along.
Still trying to locate the guys who targeted Panther and captured Ghost one, leads to some unexpected challenges and information.
This story deals with family and it has a lot of glittery fun in its pages.
5/5 stars

I love these two men. Allie is the icing on the beef cake.
This story was good. Rock and Grif are the two alpha running the two main military groups. Allie has been a part of the group for a long time. Had a chance to hook up earlier in life but it didn't happen. The boys brought in another third who ended up being bad to the bone. So bad she had Lexi dad killed in front of her. So much drama in the story. Self doubt and anger. Took awhile and a lot of rift for these three to find what they have been looking for all along.

I love Rock and Grif, loved them from the beginning, but sadly was not a fan of Allie as their third... especially because it happened too soon after the Shar mess. Children in military books just don’t work for me either. However, I love the entire series for the most part and look forward to Jason’s story.

Rock and Grif are two halves of a hot as hell whole sexy man!
Rock and Grif are two very hot warriors whose love knows no bounds for each other. Add in a precocious, adorable 4 year old spit fire little girl and her mama plus the rest of the team of Panther brothers and you have one incredible, heartwarming and feel good hilarious book!

At the start I thought I am going to love these two and I did but without Allie I just didn’t feel a connection and I lost that connection between G & Rock after Shar on the boat and we didn’t really get it back

These men show out for country and family. They never seem to catch a break. So brace for the ride it can get rough. There is nothing better for me as a reader than a series that can keep me guessing as to what’s coming next and who is behind it all!

Good
It was ok I like Allie but it seems a little forced. Still no clue as to who is behind. It was not as sexy as past books but still good
