"Operation Phoenix" by Susan Hayes

My Thoughts...

This was quite a interesting story that dealt with Lieutenant Trinity West and Commander Dax Rossi who had known each other for many years. But after the death of Trinity's brother [Travis] ten years earlier things had greatly changed for her and definitely how she felt toward Dax [her show more brother's best friend]. Why was this? What had happened had something to due with how the death of Trinity's brother. Now Trinity and Dax are being thrown together because her base was being investigated [a cold case] for thefts that had happened years ago from the 'Vault of the Fallen.' Now Commander Dax and his team of the Nova Force are there to solve this problem. So with Trinity and Dax having had a history together that didn't end well how will all of this come out as secrets of their past start to come out along with what has gone on with the thefts on the base? Will these two be able to find their happiness as lots of secrets and mysteries come out? This author did a wonderful job at letting the readers into Trinity and Dax's complicated past which was sweet from their young love but then came the broken hearts and then death that pulled them apart. Now, that they are having to work together will these two be able to mend their relationship in this second chance at love and learning to trust again while all heck is going on around them in trying to solve a old mystery and find the identity of the thief? I loved the characters who were all so well developed, portrayed, outstanding interaction with this Nova Force 3 team, 'I've got your back' and some believable helping to give the readers a story that was emotional, suspenseful, and mysterious read with wonderful action scenes while keeping the reader wondering whodunit. In the end will we get 'who had stolen the DNA of the Fallen' and will Trinity and Dax get their second chance at a HEA? To find out you will just have to pick up this good science fiction read "Operation Phoenix" to find out! show less

Genres: Adult, Romance, Sci-fi
2.75 Stars rounded up to 3

While this story is accurately written, it is, unfortunately, boring.

Starts out well with the female MC, Aria.
Tarjen, the male MC, had some moments of show more interesting.
Both fall flat.

This could have been a really good adult sci-fi, but there really just isn't enough world build, suspense, anything to keep you interested in the story.

It is a cute, sweet piece of 'Cotton Candy' fluff. show less

A quick read. If you are looking for a fiery, independent vet and a domineering policeman, this book is for you.

It was entertaining. I was laughing at the way that she kept them on their toes. I will be reading this series.
