The Warrior’s Challenge series is still going strong with Code Name: Redemption, and I still never feel like I get enough! Knowing this is the 2nd to last book helps a little, but knowing I can revisit the Alpha Squad and Greg (Canada’s JTF) anytime I want to helps the most. I’m not ready to say goodbye but I’m also super looking forward to the next book.
Anyways!
Greg and Mattie. Their story — wow. I read the blurb. I watched the book trailer video — and I still wasn’t fully prepared for the awesomeness that was given to me. There’s just enough creepy suspense and puzzles to keep you on your toes. There’s enough spicy heat simmering to keep you fanning your face. There’s enough banter between all the characters to keep you laughing, groaning, and feeling anxious for them. And there’s just enough heartache to make the healing acceptance satisfying.
I loved watching Greg’s relationship with Mattie grow and bloom, and how he got his own version of Kayla (gotta read books 1 & 2 to get the full understanding of that) that was perfect for him – stubborn frustration and tempting smiles and all! Mattie is one strong, determined woman, and that’s exactly what Greg needed to help fight back his demons. Then, when you add Thane and Kayla to the mix — oh my! The unique relationship between Greg and Kayla causes history to be exposed and dealt with by all 4 people (characters? heck, they’re real people to me!) which while it was heart shattering, the healing and acceptance and growth was preciously beautiful. I loved the convos between Greg and Thane and seeing them deal with each other. So many sweet moments abound throughout the story with all the characters.
If you loved the previous books, you’re gonna want to experience this book. If you’re just diving in, it could work as a stand alone, but you’ll definitely appreciate the dynamics and history among everyone more by reading the first two books and getting Thane and Kayla’s hea story.
I loved this installment in the Warrior’s Challenge series and have it sitting on my favorites shelf, next to the first 5 books.
Oh My … I think I am still reeling … WOW !!!! What a way to take us the full circle, Natasza Waters… I FREAKING LOVED IT !!!!!
Greg & Mattie … will they, won’t they ??? Is He … Isn’t he ??? I was kept guessing, I read all night before I knew it the sun was coming up, pages had to be turned, I had to see what happened next.
Ghost & Kayla stole my attention when I found their book a couple of years ago… they sucked me into the Code Name world & I have been hooked ever since.
Code Name: REDEMPTION is Romantic suspense at its best!!!! I am truly gutted that there is ONLY one more book in the series to go
This is book 6 in A Warriors Challenge series. I absolutely loved each of these books and this one may have become my new favourite. I highly recommend you start from the beginning to fully enjoy this series.
This is Lieutenant Commander Greg LaPierres story, a Special Forces Operator. Returning home from a deployment he finds himself a suspect for murder when a serial killer is slaughtering women in Victoria. Mattie Bidault a local journalist has been following and reporting on these murders since the beginning. She craves justice for the murdered women. When she meets Greg she believes he’s innocent but can she help prove his innocence.
Natasza Waters has an amazing way with words. I feel as if I’m friends with these characters. They feel real to me. I feel myself going through the emotions that the characters go through and that may have me grabbing chocolate, alcohol and tissues. The storyline of this book was fantastic and when I wasn’t reading this book I was thinking about it.
I know that no matter what I say I can’t give this book the credit it deserves. I read daily and if there was one series I could get more people to read it would be this series. As soon as this book hit my kindle I was on it. It didn’t matter that I was half way through a book I just knew I needed to read it.
Now I cannot write this review without mentioning MY MAN Thane (Ghost). As soon as I saw him mentioned in this book I literally squealed with delight. When my partner came out to me to see what was up I told him my boyfriend was back. I must talk about him quite a bit cos my partner left me to my reading and even told the kids to give me a wide berth. I can’t put into words how much I love him. No other male character affects me the way he does. I find myself mentally giving him high fives on so many occasions.
I’ll end my review by saying if you follow my reviews go grab book one and give this series a try. Feel free to message me and I’ll virtually hold your hand while you go through angst, palpitations and so many omg moments.
I’m so looking forward to reading more from this author.
A few quotes I couldn’t resist sharing:)
Geez this guy had Alpha with a big, intimidating ‘A’ across his mountainous chest.
“A woman can stop war from churning inside of us” “An extraordinary woman can draw us back into the light”.
“They call you Ghost for a good reason”.
Austen had done what he usually does- made a direct hit
“It would be my honor to love you fiercely for the rest of my life.”
Local journalist, Mattie Bidault, is hot on the trail of a serial killer that is terrorizing the picturesque community of Victoria…a serial killer that is reminiscent of the famous Whitechapel murderer, Jack the Ripper. When Mattie interviews the prime suspect in the killings, Lt. Commander Greg LaPierre, her instincts are telling her he’s innocent. But when she looks into his mesmerizing green eyes, she’s starting to wonder if her heart is leading her down a dangerous path…one that could leave her The Ripper’s next victim.
Attention Netflix! Natasza Waters has written an amazing series that would be a kick ass show! Code Name: Redemption kept the pages turning and my heart racing! I loved everything about it! I can’t recommend this book enough! LOVED IT! To infinity and beyond, a 5 Star read!
