It's a...Reverse Harem
Kim's trying to save the world—but is she actually going to make things worse?
Kim Medhurst is an ex-British military intelligence officer turned scientist and climate activist. A thrilling, potentially world-changing discovery leads her to a cave on a remote island off the Scottish coast. But before she can return to the mainland, a natural disaster traps her in the cave with limited food and water. Fortunately, she is an intelligent and resourceful woman who made a backup plan even before she stepped out of her own front door.
Enter Jason Chastain—owner and operator of a private security firm—and his friends Aidan Smith and twins Taylor and Joshua Greig. The foursome are also ex-military, so rescuing Kim should be a walk in the park for them. However, her discovery is so top secret she hasn’t even told Chastain and his buddies precisely what their mission is—instead relying on money and intrigue to get them to do the job. It works, until a series of events turn the rescue mission into an escape mission. Throw in a further revelation that will change all of their lives irrevocably and Kim begins to wonder if she's bitten off more than she can chew.
Should she have left things well alone, or can this colossal mess be turned into something positive? This is about so much more than just five human beings, after all.
PLEASE NOTE: Search and Rescue has a cliffhanger ending.
Search and Rescue is the first book in The Dreadnoughts reverse harem romance series.
Jason Chastain has taken on an interesting new job. He's set out to acquire a package from a location, not knowing what/who this package is. Once he and his crew arrive at the location, things take a turn.
Kim thought she was as prepared as she could have been for her mission. She even had a failsafe in case things went bad. She never could have imagined what actually took place.
This is the first book in a new series by Lucy Felthouse. It's quite different than anything I've read from her before. I'm used to reading her contemporary work so this was a pleasant surprise with the twist of events. I definitely don't want to give anything away but this is not a regular contemporary RH romance.
I really enjoyed this group of characters. I think Kim is a very strong and independent woman. We learn quickly that she's very intelligent. The guys all have their own strengths. They are all friends and ex military but they all have personalities that set them apart. This also gives them all a different relationship with Kim. While the build up on the relationship is on the slower side, the friendships they are developing along the way was great. They had really good chemistry together and great banter.
The book did start a little slow but picked up once the group got together. Then you had some surprising and suspenseful moments. All the way up to that cliffy ending. Now I have to know what's gonna happen next!
