Need for Speed by Ella Frank, Brooke Blaine
5.0
Note: An ARC was provided by the authors.
I swear, something magical happens when Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine get together to write a book. As individual authors, these two have penned addictive standalones and series that many readers have devoured, but there's that extra bit of decadence when they activate those wonder besties writing powers of theirs. Their new Elite series is a different flavor story-wise, given that while the PresLocke series was about an actor and a model and the Fallen Angel series was about a rock band, they were both about celebrities. Here, we've got two of the best Navy fighter pilots gunning for the top spot in NAFTA, a Top Gun-inspired program to find each class's cream of the crop.
After that doozy of a cliffhanger in book one, I'd been not-quite-patiently waiting to get my hands on book two, and goodness, but how I wanted to have an after-book snuggle with my tablet after I was done reading. Grant and Mateo slash Panther and Solo are at that point where it's clear that what they have is simply MORE. If it looks like love and feels like love, it's most probably exactly that, boys! Le sigh. Now, now, before you think you already know what happens in this second book, tap on those brakes and hold up a minute. There's quite a bit that unfolds here that changes the game for these two guys, and that's inside and outside of the cockpit. The ending isn't an evil cliffhanger, but it does leave you eagerly wanting to know what may await them! Five-plus stars for Need for Speed. ♥
