When archeologist January’s plane is shot down over the Guatemalan jungle, she knows she’s being hunted for the invaluable Mayan artifacts she’s carrying. Only one man and his team can save her…the covert, black ops Team 52, and the distrusting former CIA operative who drives her crazy… lost both her mother and her innocence, taught her that. Now she spends her days on archeological digs doing the work she loves. When her team uncovers a pair of dangerous artifacts in an overgrown temple, she knows they need to be secured and safeguarded. But someone else knows about the artifacts…and will kill to get them.
Working for the CIA, Seth Lynch learned the hard way that people lie and will always stab you in the back. He has the scars to prove it. He lives for his work with Team 52—ensuring pieces of powerful ancient technology don’t fall into the wrong hands. When he learns that the feisty, independent archeologist who works his last nerve has died in a plane crash, he makes it his mission to discover who the hell is responsible.
Deep in the jungle, Seth rescues a very-much alive January and it is up to him to keep both her and the artifacts safe. Hunted from every side, their attraction is explosive and fiery, but with January’s life on the line, Seth must fight his own demons in order to rescue the woman he can no longer resist.

January Jones certainly left a mark on Seth Lynch. The first time they met she beaned him with a metal pole! Seth finds the woman hard-headed, stubborn and aggravating. January thinks he is uber-macho, sly and too mysterious for his own good. You just know that these two are going to be fireworks all the way!
I have to admit that January was hard work. She seems to live to be contrary and even when she knows it’s sound advice she seems to delight in doing the opposite just because! Seth however, can also put his big foot in it and he can tromp all over other peoples opinions. Especially annoying when he’s right!
Eco-terrorists abound with enough firepower via a certain powerful artefact to level a city in no time at all. But instead of bombing or blowing it up, they’ll send it “back to nature”.
Even with a team wedding in the offing, danger isn’t far off and we’re left with a bit of a cliffie as to what has happened to a certain sunny individual!
When archeologist January’s plane is shot down in the Guatemalan jungle, she knows it’s because of the ancient artifact she is carrying. Team 52 member and former CIA, Seth Lynch has made it his mission to discover who shot down feisty and independent January James.
This action packed adventure was another amazing addition to the Team 52 series. January was a feisty, independent, and smart hellcat who is determined to live her life to the fullest. I love that she isn’t afraid to defend herself or stand up for what she believes in. She also stands up to Seth, which he needs. January is just one kickass lady with an awesome job. (I always wanted to be an archeologist.)
“Really. I think you’re amazing. I love the way you embrace life, your never-ending energy and vitality. Plus you’re gorgeous and you never let me get away with anything.”
After being betrayed multiple times, former CIA agent Seth doesn’t trust anyone. This leads to him making a big mistake with January and almost losing her. He is strong, protective, and emotionally walled off. While getting January out of the jungle safely he realizes how much he likes her. Once he admitted his feelings the dives all into the relationship, which I really liked. I just adored seeing these two finally admit their feelings for each other and make it official.
“Are you scared?” “Oh yeah.” He gave her a long, soft kiss. “But I know we’ll work this love thing out together, and enjoy every step.”
I am loving this series as much this second time around as I did when I first read them. I cannot wait to get acquainted with the rest of the Team 52 team.
Reader Warning:
Heroine raped as a teenager (referenced, off page).
This can be fully enjoyed as a stand-alone, but like the most delectable treat, you will definitely be going back for more! There is a reason that Ms. Hackett has dedicated readers, her amazing writing talent creates stories that are levels beyond what other authors come up with. This story has action packed scenes, edge of your seat suspense, jaw dropping surprises, laugh out loud humor, extensively researched details, placing the reader right there descriptions, and fan yourself steamy romance. The hero was fall in love with worthy for his willingness to sacrifice himself to protect others and the heroine was worthy of all matter of respect for her ability to overcome all the odds against her. In case you are in doubt, I highly recommend this story and the others by this author.
Another great read by Anna Hackett as the grumpy member of the team meets his match. Together the pair risk it all to survive and protect the artifact. I love the guys of Team 52 and so will you.
This was a great read with lots of suspense. Will definitely recommend, but be warned. If you read the one, you will be hooked, and you will read them all.
This is turning out to be another good series. I really like Seth and January.
Anna Hackett is great at creating strong, intelligent, sassy, independent women and strong, intelligent alpha men that are confident enough to appreciate those women for who they are and don’t try to smother them.
The dangerous artifacts are always quite interesting.
Smith and Kinsey’s story will be starting with a bang.
This was a great read with lots of suspense. Will definitely recommend, but be warned. If you read the one, you will be hooked, and you will read them all.
Anna Hackett never fails to please.
Despite this series being a contemporary romance, I was taken by this group of brawn and brains with strong women and men falling hard.
After the group leader having found his other half, it is turn to the taciturn Seth with the spitfire January.
Impossible to find two more opposite persons, January lives life at the fullest while Seth has built so heavy walls around his heart and soul, trusting nobody.
January is a heroine who astonished me, with her past trauma, she could have become bitter, angry and resentful against men instead she embraces life and enjoys everything life has to offer.
While Seth closed himself to everyone, refusing to let anyone pass his defenses.
Together they are like oil and water, rubbing and scratching each other’s skin.
One more action-packed read with enjoyable and entertaining protagonists, special mention to Brooks and his Star Wars T-shirts.
Anna Hackett introduces another wonderful world!
Book 2 in the Team 52 series takes the reader to the jungles of Guatemala and back in an action packed tale of mystery and romance with some history thrown in. January and Seth are a fun to read about, neither one inclined to back down and always ready to sass back. As with Ms. Hackett’s Treasure Hunter Security series, it’s fun to check out the history behind the story. Great series!
Enjoy!
I just loved reading January and Seth’s story. This book is filled with action and intrigue and I can’t wait for the next book in this series.
January and Seth’s story is good. Lots of action and steamy too! The Team 52 books are excellent and some of the best reading out now. I can’t wait for the next one.
This is a riveting read! The adrenaline flows as the action heats up making it impossible to put down. And oh man that first kiss….. I love getting a history lesson along with a great read. I have to research the Snake Kings. I received an advanced copy of this book. I freely and gladly leave this honest review.
Trying to deliver two artifacts to safety hands had proven dangerous to Dr. January James. But she was a strong woman, decided and with resources to fight against the threats. Seth Lynch, one of Team 52 pilots, had not had a very good experience with Dr. James in the past and he did not had forgotten her. He was a hardened man who trust nobody outside his team, but the feisty woman needed their help to accomplish her mission. Would he be able to trust her and risk all? A Thrilling adventure with lot of action, suspense, betrayal, danger, violence, romance and passion. Liked Dr. James belligerent, witty, sharp tongue and fearless character. Enjoyed the exciting descriptions and narrations that made me visualize the action
I love Anna Hackett’s new series, Team 52. This is the second book, and it’s just as good as the first. She’s immersed us in a new world of adventure and love. I already want to get up close and personal with the other team members. It’s amazing how she can create so many wonderful characters. The first book sets up the series, but she gives enough details here if you’ve dropped in without reading the first.
MISSION: HER RESCUE is a treat to all who love a story filled with spine-chilling action, high-level suspense, life-threatening issues, emotional ups and downs, humor, one hot alpha protective hero, an independent lion-hearted heroine, a cast of intriguing characters, sensuous fiery romance and a fantastic happily ever after.
Seth and Dr. January James are opposites, always arguing and their witty banter is phenomenal. Team 52 flies to the Guatemalan jungle in search of January’s crashed plane. Seth finds her alive, bruised and tired relieving the heavy ache in his gut. January is full-of-life where Seth is cautious and untrusting. The twists, turns, and dangers make this story quite a thrilling ride until they reach their happy ending.
CAPTIVATING fast-paced well-written read that had me on the edge of my seat flipping pages to find out what came next. I laughed, felt anger, got a bit emotional at the backstories and loved every second of this thrilling story. The characters are engaging and the vivid scene descriptions are awesome. January manages to fill Seth’s life with joy and love; something he needed but thought he would never have. I adored them together. The camaraderie between Team 52 is awesome. Finding this to be a most entertaining read; {of my own volition, without any stipulations, I reviewed an advanced copy.} Without any hesitation, I recommend this read.
What a pair these two are – usually at odds with each other! January’s strong, independent, and in charge of what’s happening in her life. Seth is a bit of a mystery, multi-talented, totally untrusting of anyone other than his fellow crew members. But…there’s something special about Dr. James. Their romance is thrilling to follow as they race through jungle and desert to keep dangerous artifacts safe! It is always a pleasure to read the fascinating history behind the relics discovered. Very exciting reading!
