Publisher's Summary

As the battle against the invading aliens intensifies, a group of bad boy bikers and mercenaries will stand and fight for humanity's survival....

When former berserker Manu Rahia lost his leg on a mission, he was forced to leave his squad. He knows his new role as head of the Enclave's firing range and armory is important, but hates that he isn't still out there fighting face-to-face against the aliens and protecting his brothers' backs. But then one woman catches his eye. A no-nonsense woman dedicated to her job as head of security. A woman who seems cool on the surface, but who Manu is convinced is hiding more under her business-like exterior.

Captain Kate Scott dedicated her life to her career in the Army. Now she works hard taking care of security for the Enclave and its residents. She learned a long time ago that she isn't a passionate woman, and that she's better off sticking to her work. But seeing one big, bronze-skinned, muscled man at the range every day has her hormones going into overdrive. She's never felt like this, and she's determined to get herself under control.

But when the aliens launch a viscous new attack, right on the Enclave's doorstep, Kate and Manu must join forces to stop the raptors before more people get hurt. Kate will fight fiercely to protect her team and the base, as well as her heart. But Manu Rahia is a man who knows what he wants, will walk through fire to get it, and what he wants is Kate.

This series is a TREASURE

Okay I have read pretty much everything Anna Hackett has on Audible. And I think she is SO underrated. There have been books that have changed my life, given me different perspectives about myself and my place in the world. That is NOT what these are. But these are without a doubt one of the reasons that I am and have been able to maintain a reasonable level of anxiety during a very stressful time. These are books I re-read. Sometimes I listen to them to fall asleep. These are bright, brilliant, surefire, tried-and-true comfort. The most delightful escapism. The characters are great, the romance is sweet, the plots are good, the sex scenes are hot but not too much. The world building is captivating! Hell Squad is a great concept! And think about this if you are a fan of Anna Hackett. SHE NEVER DISAPPOINTS. If you pick up one of these books, it is going to be exactly what you want. It's formulaic, but not so much that the books or characters run together. It is formulaic in the best possible way. And almost all of Hell Squad is on Audible Escape. All her series are good but Hell Squad is probably my favorite.

love Manu!

I totally love Manu's story and his chemistry with tough Kate Scott. Neither want to admit feelings but neither can deny them! More Gizzida evildoings and just as much human grit.

Book 16

Another great story in the Hell Squad world. Manu Rahia, brother to Tane and Hemi, and Kate\ Scott, head of security for the Enclave are wonderful together. And while they are more mature than the rest of our heroes, they are no less HOT. As with the rest of the series, Manu keeps the pages turning in a fast pace plot that is an exhilarating ride. Enjoy!

Hang on!

What a story! When Manu and Kate find themselves in the tunnels, I was on the edge of my seat. These two characters were so tough. Kate was a strong female character who took her role seriously and especially the safety of her team. Manu and Kate connecting helped Manu to further come to terms with losing his leg. Hope there are more adventures with these two.

Great

AaaaMAZINE !!!!! Love it. Want more. If the was anything about it I wish was different it would be that it wasn't longer. I totally recommend it L

Awesome story in a well developed world

I have read every book in the Hell Squad series and am a fan of the series. The books are best read in order because of the backstory and also, visits from the prior characters but you won't be lost if you start here too. Get ready for an exciting ride! This story follows Manu of the Berserkers. (there are a few main squads that fight against the raptor like aliens who have taken over the world and destroyed most of humanity) The Berserkers are the ultimate bad boys and Manu lost a leg while fighting recently. Kate is the head of security of the enclave where they live. Together, they have to undertake a dangerous mission to keep the bad guys at bay. Every book in this series is exciting with a wonderful romance between 2 characters but also, showcasing a great group of people who are trying to find hope and happiness in a very dangerous time. This is the first audiobook I've listened to in this series and I think the narrators do a good job of playing the characters (even when they have to switch roles). They add emotion to the story and adequately provide a feeling of danger when it is called for. I'm looking forward to future books and audiobooks from this author!
