The last thing a photojournalist with a secret needs is a former Navy SEAL on a mission to find the truth.When a ransom is demanded for her brother’s life, photojournalist Finlay Reid needs a guide to the rendezvous to make the exchange. What she gets is Wild Mustang Security Firm’s, Billy Crofton.Croft is hot, ruthless and dominant. Finn tries to keep the former SEAL at bay but finds that … bay but finds that something in his heated gaze makes her heart skip a beat.
When he catches Finn in a blatant lie, Croft thinks nothing of introducing the spirited photographer to the consequence of old fashioned discipline. As Croft and Finn wind their way through the Grand Canyon to the exchange point, things become more heated than the Arizona sun.
Croft never expected Finn to push all his buttons; Finn never thought she’d yield to his demands … or respond so wantonly.
But the truth is even more dangerous than either of them realized…

Once again, Delta James delivers a great story. It has mystery, suspense, sensuality (including some very sexy scenes) and Dominance and Submission. Of course the reader knows that Finn and Croft will end up together, but Finn does not submit easily. It definitely takes a lot of thought, discussion with Croft, and much needed alone time to come to terms with what Croft is asking of her. And she is stubborn, (the mules really aren’t that stubborn, LOL,) but she is a successful independent woman. And she wants to be careful that she isn’t giving in to Croft simply because he is helping her rescue her brother from arms dealers. And she most certainly doesn’t always do as she is told. Hmm, in fact maybe she rarely does! But Croft hopes to change that through his own brand of discipline. It is a well written story that keeps you wanting to read to find out what will happen next. Loved it!

Hotter than the outdoors….
The chemistry between Finn and Croft is hotter than the outdoors. This story has plenty of heat as well as a good story-line. Having read book one in this series, I noticed a “trend”. It seems that the men of Wild Mustang Security fall for stubborn women.

Always and Forever!
Professionally written and fast-paced, “Forever Finn” pairs a holy hot, dominant cowboy and former Seal (Croft), with an extremely independent photo journalist (Finn). Croft’s employer, the Wild Mustang Security Firm, has been hired by Finn to guide her into the Grand Canyon to track her missing brother. Finn withholds essential information from the firm, placing her life as well as Croft’s in danger (and others). The attraction between the couple begins almost immediately and is intermixed with action, adventure, danger, suspense and intrigue. The story-line flows smoothly with several twists and turns along the way. The intimacy is well executed, explicit and quite intense.
Croft’s dominance is quite evenhanded and counterbalanced with his thoughtfulness, understanding and respect toward Finn as well as others. Unfortunately, I had difficulty sensing the connection between the lead characters. The most integral aspect of a D/s relationship (along with trust) is the domination of one partner over the other, with submission freely given. Finn is not a submissive, which places the relationship in question throughout the story. Finn’s thoughts as well as actions often appeared immature, with her continually running away rather than facing her doubts and fears. Not until Finn flees (once again), to Europe and discovers her best friend was happy in a similar relationship does she commit fully to Croft. Rather than exemplify inner-strength and control, Finn often appears overly stubborn, weak, frightened as well as insecure. Due to Finn’s proclivity to flee and other questionable aspects of her personality, what would have been a 5-star story, transitioned into a 4-star read as a result of Finn’s self-inflicted drama.
Overall, “Forever Finn” is a fast-paced and entertaining erotic romance, with an original story-line that will keep readers engaged until the very end.

Forever Finn is the second book in the Wild Mustang Security Firm series, but can be a stand alone. Finlay’s brother is in danger and she’s on a mission to rescue him, but her guide keeps getting in her way. What starts off as protecting a client quickly turns into protecting the woman who’s stealing his heart, and while Finn may be reckless, Croft knows how to tame her wildness. But as the danger increases, will Croft keep Finn safe so he can fully claim her as his forever woman?
I really enjoyed reading this book! There’s a lot of secrets, power plays, danger, courage, and facing your own needs and desires. Finn and Croft seem like two alphas butting heads and wills, but I loved how their relationship develops and I loved that while this wasn’t an insta-love type of romance, Croft quickly knows what his heart wants and will do anything to protect, love, and claim her! I really liked Finn. While she was a little brash and uncaring about the consequences to her actions, I loved how big her heart was, I loved how fiery she was, and I loved how dedicated she was. She was so brave at times when it came to her independence, but I loved her struggles to accept her inner desires. Sometimes I wanted to have an issue with Croft, simply because I was worried he might bulldoze right over Finn and make her extra ornery, but I realized real fast that everything he did was to keep Finn safe and secure. While he may be stern at times, he’s also amazingly sweet, and I love what he tells her every time they separate! Their love was fast and fierce and not without some issues and danger to overcome, but it was true and passionate! There’s a lot of details in this book with some of the background story and I feel like the next book is nicely set up, but never did the drama distract from their relationship. This was a great read and I am really loving this series!
Finn and Crofts story gets off to a bad start when he realizes that she’s lied to him and holding information about why she’s really hired him to find her missing brother. Croft soon realizes he’s going to have to turn her over his knees to get the truth out of her before she ends up getting herself killed. It’s a fast fun sometimes very frustrating spanking hot read but definitely not for everyone. I received a free copy of this book and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.
This is an excellent mystery/suspense romance that capture’s the reader’s attention & keeps it until the very end. The characters are well-developed with a lot of chemistry although they are inclined to be confrontational at times. It has a well-written, outstanding plot filled with unexpected incidents.
It is about: a feisty independent female photo journalist (Finlay Reid) needs to pay a ransom for her brother (Christian) & hires an ex-seal (Billy Crafton) from Wild Mustang Security to take her to a certain point but he soon realizes that she is not exactly telling the truth.
There is: twists & turns, intrigue, suspense, adventure, action, abduction, ransom demands, danger, threats, villains, attractions, confrontations, verbal conflict, confusion, discipline, spanking, domination/submission, manipulations, verbal banter, love, happiness, steamy scenes & a well-deserved satisfying conclusion. I really enjoyed reading this mystery/suspense romance & would recommend it to people who like to read this genre. I really doubt that you would be disappointed.
All Finn needs is a guide to help her find her brother. She doesn’t need a bossy, dominant hardass guy name Croft ordering her around. Spanking her but just because he doesn’t like the fact that she is capable and strong and can do this on her own. Croft on the other hand, know she needs his help. It’s a dangerous mission she’s on and he already knows she is definitely going to be his woman. He will protect her even if he has to put his palm with her butt more than once

Power exchange charged romantic suspense story
Delta James’ Wild Mustang Security Firm continues with book 2, Forever Flynn.
Their first meeting has sparks flying between Flynn and Croft that quickly escalate into a steamy journey fraught with danger. The suspense elements kept the story moving. This story reads well as a stand-alone though it was fun to see some of the characters from the previous books making appearances.

This book was difficult to assess, or rather my reaction to it was. The story is great – terrorists, hunky hero, courageous heroine, rescue team that are like family, evil bad guys. But, that “courageous heroine,” the Finn of the title, is at times a complete idiot, and it’s her character that bothered me. There’s also an instalove that is beyond instant, but it works for the plot, hence the 4 stars. Having said that, the other characters are so well written they’re a joy to read, particularly Croft, or Billy Crofton, the male lead. I had a sneaking suspicion by the end that he deserved better than Finn (see above!), but his character is far more in line with Delta James’ usual writing, and revisiting Mac and Willa, amongst others, is a pleasure. This is a standalone, but fun for readers of previous books to get to see those characters keep growing.

A fabulous story for both Finn and Colt. Their story is lovely and i thoughly reccommend this.
it just so happens that Finn when hiring someone to take her to a meeting place she gets Colt, he is a ex navey Seal and well versed in tracking. Unfortunately Colt finds out what her real mission is for and It’s isnt long before she gets her first spanking for lying to Colt and his team. She is in more danger than it seems.. but an easy mission soon turns out to dangerous one that put Finns life in danger.
