Need for Speed by Ella Frank, Brooke Blaine
4.0
**I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads.**
Need for Speed is the second book in the Elite series. It picks up right where Danger Zone leaves us. Need for Speed cannot be read as a stand alone. You will not be getting the whole story if you do not start with Danger Zone, and trust me when I say you NEED that part of the story.
If you haven't read Danger Zone please do not read this review...there are spoilers for that book.
Grant (Panther) wakes up bruised and battered. He remembers everything that happened when he had to eject from his plane. All he wants is too see Solo and get back to NAFTA. Solo needs to see Panther is okay. Panther's accident brought back so many bad memories of when Solo lost his brother. After finding out he's okay Solo can't get to the hospital fast enough. When Panther is finally released from the hospital he needs to have someone with him and Solo obviously volunteers. The accident and the time spent together brings out the vulnerability of both of them. Things change and they realize they may only have the now, the NAVY could send them in separate ways that a relationship would never servive.
I loved watching this go from something that was just sex to something that is so much more. Neither knowing just how the other felt.
"...let me watch you lose yourself in us"
Panther finally realizing he was living a life that everyone expected but not that he necessarily wanted.
"But I wasn't scared, not anymore, because I knew Solo would be there to catch me."
Where we were left at the end of this one had me dying for the next installment! I have to know how the rest of this plays out!
