Sky and Bliss have off the charts chemistry. The heat and the action were so intense, I could NOT stop reading this book, and pulled an all-nighter to finish it. Worth every second of lost sleep <3
This series is a great read, you really don’t need to read these in order. Books are believable situations and the outcomes are true to life. If you like action and adventure with a love story also then this series is for you. Good reading and enjoy.
Starting off I love this cover! Johnny Kane fits the character Sky 100 percent in my opinion. This is book 13 but it can be read as a standalone. This is the first book I have read by the author and I cant wait to read more. I have downloaded 2 already. I love Sky and Bliss both have been through some stuff both together and separate. I love second chance books and this one is great. HOT scenes, some drama and action a must read!
The story has laughs, pain, secrets, adventure, mystery, mayhem, and heartbreak.
I have loved this series from the start and it just keeps getting better and better!

Love everything from this author. Always plenty of surprise elements, romance and fun.
CONSUME!!! When a HOT book appears on my kindle, I consume it in one sitting. Do not talk, text, or bother me until I am done! I love all the guys and the girls they end up loving. This edition is no exception! ‘Hacker’ and Bliss are on fire, and ice! The world of hacking is very intriguing, this book delves into some of the insides and what a person can actually do with information that is not meant to be public!
Loved all of the sexual tension and build up. The stormy emotions with Bliss and Sky are off the charts.
5 HOT Stars!
Wow I was so not ready for HOT Secrets to end. As always Mrs. Harris has delivered another winner. Super extra HOT alpha male and a female lead that is stronger than even she knows. Sky and Bliss have a difficult past that they must overcome and as if that wasn’t enough they had to do that while trying to help save the world…literally. All wrapped up in a happily ever after.
As always this is a stand alone book but would be better enjoyed by being read in order because there are reoccurring characters from previous books.
small spoiler stop reading if you don’t want to know
The only downside for me is that Ian Black and his team are only mentioned one time and just in passing through the whole book. I always look forward to his involvement so that was a bit disappointing. Overall the book is amazing and I cannot wait for the next one. Bring on Wolf!!
Thank you for your review.
In my opinion Lynn Raye Harris is the undisputed Queen of Military Romance because her Hostile Operations Team series just keeps getting better and better. In HOT Secrets the computer geeks finally get to be the heroes and who says brainiacs aren’t sexy? Bliss Bennett and her ex-husband Sky “Hacker” Kelley have to work together but they don’t have to like it. For these two bickering is like foreplay and the sexual tension between them adds so much to this exciting cat-and-mouse storyline. Just when you think you know how this story is going to end there’s a deadly twist that I guarantee will throw you for a loop. A smartly written storyline and passionate characters are sure to please military romance fans of all ages. I read an early copy of this book and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.
I just can’t get enough of this great series! Lynn Raye Harris has created another winner with HOT Secrets book #13 in the Hostile Operations Team series. Bliss Bennett a computer hacker betrayed her husband Sky “Hacker” Kelly four years earlier, so when she suddenly shows up at Sky’s door he does not want anything to do with her. But Bliss is really in bad trouble and danger, so she convinces Sky to help her. I encourage you to get this book to find out how Sky helps Bliss out of her troubles and to see if there can be a HEA. This book will not disappoint you for there is danger, action, chemistry between the two main characters, hotness and many characters from previous books. Can’t wait for more HOTness!! Check it out!
*** 4.5 star read ***
Yet another exciting HOT book filled with adventure, mystery, mayhem, distrust and, of course, love.
Sky and Bliss are “bitter” exes. There are hard feelings between them after their divorce. But when Bliss needs help, she turns to Sky.
Both are hackers, but in different areas. If you are not a computer person, some of this story may be a little boring and repetitive while they are all trying to figure out the program. And yes folks, it really does take that number of people working nonstop if the program is complicated. But the adventure is, well, an adventure.
My only issue with this book was some of the graphic nature towards the end. It may not bother some, but it bothered me. That’s a personal issue for me and not everyone shares it. Give it a chance and make your own choice.
I really enjoyed seeing Samantha in this book. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen her. And having Kid cross over and help was good too and telling Sky about what he and Olivia went through. It allowed me to reminisce back to one of the early HOT books. It’s always fun to see characters you haven’t seen awhile and that is what we get here. And I hope to see Frances again in future books. She is a total sweetheart.
Overall a good read full of adventure. Enjoy the ride.
I devoured HOT Secrets today. I could not put it down! I love a good second chance romance book, and Lynn Raye Harris did not disappoint us. HOT Secrets is a great addition to the series. It is sexy, suspenseful, and a page turner. Bliss is Hacker’s secret, and she’s about to infiltrate his world again in a big way. She gives Hacker and the Kid a run for their money. You will love this book, and the next one is set up nicely!!
WOW! This book is intriguing from the first page.
When Bliss Bennett goes to her ex husband, Sky “Hacker” Kelley, for help and protection.
Neither knows the trouble to come but Sky is the one person Bliss can trust with everything except her heart.
This book is a page turner from beginning to end with lots of action on every page as these two attempt to break the code on computer files. Hacker is already a member of HOT so it’s the natural thing to do when he is ordered to bring the files and Bliss to headquarters.
When Bliss’ life is put in danger and she has to be hospitalized, Sky stays by her side and literally saves her life again when he interrupts yet another attempt on her life.
This book is filled with danger, suspense, murder and the realization that what they had and thought was gone is alive and well. The chemistry between Sky and Bliss is off the charts.
Grab this book, sit back and prepare to enjoy a few hours of being lost in this fast paced danger in all forms and HOT solves another threat to the freedom and survival of the United States of America.
Sky felt betrayed by Bliss four years ago. Now, she has to trust him and hope that he will help. He’s the only one that she feels that she can trust. Sky’s been angry with her for the last four years, but now he has to get past that and deal with the truth of whys of what happened. They’ve always had chemistry, and four years didn’t diminish it.
The story is HOT! The suspense was great, and so was the chemistry with Sky and Bliss. I had my suspicions, but they weren’t verified until the climax when the action picks up. Another great HOT story.
Fantastic!
This story is crazy good! I really enjoy how Bliss and Sky each have a rather unique skill set. I know there are a lot of hackers out there in cyber world but the level of skill these two have set them apart from the ordinary small town hacker.
I also enjoy their history, as intense as it is, but their relationship is precariously based on secrets and half truths. They need to come a long way to mend what is broken between them.
The general public doesn’t realize how their every day habits can be tracked simply by their use of electronic means from their banking, cell phones, driving their car, credit cards, home security systems, and even their home thermostat. Sophisticated hackers that are determined to cause pandemonium and gain power have us all in the palm of their hands, or should I say, right at their fingertips!
I thoroughly enjoyed this storyline which brings two brilliant people back into each other’s world with national security at risk and in the hands of HOT. I also loved Bliss and Sky’s obvious chemistry that neither one can deny.
This is another excellent HOT love story! Great job! I loved it!
Lynn Raye Harris excels in creating intense chemistry while introducing new dementions to the characters we love. Really one of the HOT guys having a secret life ie ex wife no one knew about.????? And Hacker showing his true loyalty by protecting Bliss but not revealing HOT. The man can juggle. And when they give in to passion, keep the ice tea handy to cool down with. The visit with Cowboy and Miranda will make you laugh…. Loving a HOT operator isn’t easy but man it makes exciting reading. Now bring on the next book….

“Why are you being so nice to me, Sky?”
“Because you’re my girl, Bliss. You’ll always be my girl.”
Oh, Lordy!! These men of HOT are just that. HOT!! I have loved this series from the start and it just keeps getting better and better! This was a great love-to-hate-to-love story that tugs at your heartstrings! Hurt. Regret. Hate. Love. Fear. All the feels for sure!
Bliss Bennett has lied all her life. She’ll play the role to get the job done, then she’s gone. As a contract hacker, she’s the best of the best. Four years ago, the job went wrong. A life was lost, and two hearts were destroyed. Now, she’s in trouble and the one man who hates her is her only ticket to survival. Her ex-husband. The question is, does he hate her enough to turn her away, or is there any part of him that cares enough to help her? If she makes it out of this alive, will she be able to walk away from him again?
Sky “Hacker” Kelly never thought he’d see her again. Not that he ever wanted to . Everything they had was a lie and she destroyed them both. He gave her his heart once. Now he wouldn’t give her the time of day. When she shows up on his doorstep, claiming that her life is in danger, why should he believe her? Another con, another dollar – that’s her M.O. But, when her story checks out and it’s clear that she’s crossed the wrong person this time, he can’t turn her away. It’s not in his nature to be anything but protective. He has no doubt he can keep her safe. Can he say the same about his heart?
Holy Hannah are these two hot together! You could feel the hurt coming off of both of them as they try to get past their pain, but then when they stop fighting what they want – Hoo-Wee!! The chemistry is off the charts!! This is a great addition to the series!! A definite must read!!
Bliss worked for our country. She was a hacker with a shady past who hired out free-lance to some of the “three initial” agencies and made a very healthy living. Until her last mission came with someone out to kill her. Who could she trust to help her?
Sky was on the Hostile Operations Team, lucky to even be in the military after a leader turned out to be a traitor that none of his men knew let alone this elite team. His leader had been discovered and turned in by a gorgeous woman who used Sky to out him. The same woman he’d loved. Married. Lied to him. He’d divorced. The same woman who faced him at his door four years later.
Could he turn her away? She trusted him to protect her and help her. The problem, even after all she’d done, he still wanted her. His body didn’t care what she’d done. He couldn’t turn her away, he’d just have to fight his desire.
When he brought his team in they all learned her incompleted mission was much more serious than they’d thought. Hot was now involved and not just because of Bliss. They had to find the answer and the bad guy. Would she be alive by the time they did? Would Sky and Bliss find what brought them together four years ago?
I have read most of the Hot series and enjoyed every one. This lets us visit some of the team, gives us a taste of their professionalism, military style, and special team closeness of the men and their women. Hot Secrets easily stands alone, I will warn you that its likely to make you want more Hot!

Sky and Bliss have a chemistry that cannot be denied! Sky is the one of the best hackers around, hence one big reason why he is a member of HOT, but he has a strong sense of right and wrong. When the ex wife no one knows about knocks on his door needing his help desperately, he can’t turn her away, as much as he doesn’t trust her due to their history. What follows is a life and death situation filled with secrets, lies, danger and of course facing the past between these two hackers that have to learn to trust one another. Sky and Bliss will set your ereader on fire because they are that hot, sexy, smart (who says brains aren’t sexy? Not this girl!) and have to save the world while also finding a way to trust one another so they can get their happily ever after.

What an amazing read! Sky and Bliss are such a hot couple. This book is full of chemistry between the two, danger in the form of threats made to them, and action with some of the HOT teammates helping Bliss and Sky. I always enjoy the story lines and sense of danger each one has. I liked the way this book was able to capture that all in one place. It made for a very interesting story. the fact that this couple use to be married and seem to still have feelings for one another was a pleasant surprise. I like the appearance of new members to the HOT series and look forward to learning about them as well as the other members who hopefully we will get to meet soon. This is a very well written story and a thoroughly enjoyed it. Can’t wait for the next book!
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
