The New York Times bestselling author of Desperate Girls and Touch of Red returns to her sizzling Alpha Crew series with this fourth thriller filled with “scorching-hot chemistry” (Kirkus Reviews) featuring a Navy SEAL who meets his match in a fierce FBI agent as they work together to take down a dangerous terrorist.

Navy SEAL Jake Heath has his eyes on Alexa Mays. The FBI Agent is whip smart and hot as hell, but she won’t give him the time of day. So, when she calls him out of blue, he thinks his luck has changed.

But instead of meeting up for a romantic dinner, Alexa needs Jake for a very different reason. Her counterterrorism team is hot on the heels of the extremist that Jake’s task force has been tracking for months, and now he’s on American soil. The only way she can take him down is with Jake’s help.

Alexa knows Jake is tough and relentless...and that the chemistry between them is electric. Although she’s risking her heart—and maybe even her career—by bringing him onto the mission, she doesn’t have another choice. Together, they’re an unstoppable and powerful team.

As the hours tick by and a lethal enemy gets closer to launching an unimaginable attack, Alexa and Jake need to fight fire with fire before the clock runs out. The only question is: will their own flames get in the way?

I love everything Laura Griffin writes because she knows how to write stories that have just the right mix of suspense and romance. There is heart pounding action and simmering romance in her newest novella, TOTAL CONTROL.  This story has likable characters, a great story and lots of action. 

 

Jake and Alexa first met when they worked on case together.  Now, six months later, they are thrown together again when Alexa asks for Jake help on a case she is working on. She has a hard time ignoring the sizzling chemistry flowing between them as they work together trying to find out more about a terrorist cell. Jake is a Navy Seal and his stubborn tenacity and unwavering determination have helped him survive seven tours of duty. Special Agent Alexa Mays works for the FBI in counter terrorism. She finds herself constantly trying to prove help self in this male dominated field. I enjoyed this engaging story.  It is the fourth book in the Alpha Control series.
