Blind Ambition by Gwen Hernandez

Blind Ambition is the second book in the Men of Steele series. I read and really enjoyed book one, but I don't think anyone would be lost if they read this as a standalone. The series is based around a protection/black ops/mercenary type agency. Dan is assigned to rescue a kidnap victim, Alexa, with whom he had a brief but meaningful affair years ago. Alexa had never forgotten Dan. If she ever saw herself as capable of being loved, she would want it to be him.  Alexa had allowed years of difficult experiences to warp her view of her own worth and purpose. She can't believe it when Dan rescues her in just the nick of time. Unfortunately, the rescue is just the start of their troubles. They spend the next several days fighting to save several children from a rebel leader and fighting their strong attraction to each other.

I thought Dan was perfect for Alexa. He was firm but patient and willing to take a risk and wait for Alexa to realize they were meant to be together. The story was fast paced and full of action. I can't wait to read book three. Thanks to Net Galley for providing a copy for review.
