Review:

At the Edge by Laura Griffin is Part 1 of her new Alpha Crew series. This is a novella that will lead the way to the next novella, Part 2, which comes later this month. Not sure the reason why this was done, as it could have easily been added to Alpha Crew Part 2, unless this is sort of a prequel to a new full series. However, that being said, I did enjoy this story, meeting our heroes Emma and Ryan.

The government plane Emma was on crashes in the Philippine jungle, leaving her as the only survivor. Emma, who is injured, tries to find someplace to hide for safety. Enter Ryan, a member of a Seal/Alpha crew looking for the downed plane, with an ambassador’s wife on board. Ryan rescues Emma, and his team must find a way to get her to safety. There is more to why Ryan and his team were close to the site of the plane crash, but that will be for us to learn in Part 2. For now, as they trek on dangerous land, both Emma and Ryan find themselves attracted to each other.

After the rescue, and when she is fully recovered, Emma searches for Ryan, as she cannot get him off her mind. Emma is also suspicious of how the plane went down. Ryan wants her to walk away as his life is dangerous and secret; but when he sees she is being followed, he knows he has to protect her. What follows is a romance that is very steamy, despite Ryan’s determination to not get involved. Emma hows how much she wants Ryan, and he cannot resist her. But Emma’s insistence to find out the truth will put her life more into danger, and then she decides to do things on her own. Ryan will get help from his team to find Emma before the enemy finds her. Now sit back and wait for Part 2.

Laura Griffin is an excellent writer, as I enjoy her Tracers series.   She has created a great couple, as I really loved the chemistry between Emma and Ryan. This was an exciting action filled story that is a quick read, and sexy. Just wish they made one novel out of this opener.
