Description

Battle born.

SEAL.

Loner.

Ringing out of BUD/S was never an option. Third generation Navy SEAL, the Teams were in my blood. I earned my Trident, and four years later, my brother earned his.

As Tier One operators, the battlefield was our playground.

Then I got a cryptic call. Enemy combatants, coordinated attack, no survivors, catastrophic loss—my brother was dead. Two days later, I was carrying his coffin off a transport. Except my brother hadn't been deployed at the time of the attack, his new wife was missing, and no one was talking.

Intent on answers, I left the Teams and joined Alpha Elite Security. With the private military contractor as my cover, I went looking for payback and found it—all five feet of her.

Code name: Blade.

Mission: Vengeance.

BLADE is a standalone book in the exciting Alpha Elite Series by USA Today Bestselling author, Sybil Bartel. Come meet Blade and the dominant, alpha heroes who work for AES!

    The first half of this book was very disappointing and a confusing story line to follow. It took to long to get answers as to what was going on and why. Still didn’t find all the answers. Spoiler alert: if Church is listed in the new series apparently he is not dead. The second half took off and you just fell head over heels for Blade. Cried in the ending epilogue. Always ❤️ the AES guys showing up. Great end to the series.

  • Sybil saved the BEST for Last! BLADE was UNTOPPABLE!!!! 5 million/5 Stars!!!!

    I had expectations going into this book, especially after seeing glimpses of Blade throughout the preceding books in the AES series, but all of that went out the freaking window as soon as I started reading BLADE. And by reading, I mean obsessing over every word and nuance and silent tell about this merciless, dominant and possessive man. I completely DEVOURED this book all night long. And then I woke up and immediately re-read it because it was SO incredible!! BLADE wrecked me. My heart ached for her, but I loudly rooted for his FMC. She is my favorite FMC that Sybil has ever written. Her quick wit and snarky honesty combined with her resilience through unimaginable circumstances made me love her so much. She was real, and relatable and a survivor!! She is strong without Blade but she also is carrying trauma, grief, and trust issues a mile wide. It’s raw and messy, but Blade is a Valhalla warrior, and he never backs down. He cleans that metaphorical and literal mess with his own brand of ruthless justice and resolute love for his woman. And omg does he love this woman!! The emotions that run between them, the progression of their communication, and the trust that he forges with her was everything!!! Blade is unmatched, especially in the bedroom. The spice was supreme! Not just due to their physical chemistry, but because of their unspoken understanding of the similarities between one another. It was intoxicating and explosive, and indescribably HOT. I don’t know if Sybil was holding out or just purposely saving her absolute BEST BOOK HERO EVER for last, but BLADE was untoppable!! Blade is the 12th and final book in the AES series, and I found myself getting teary while reading the final chapters. In part, because those chapters themselves were so profound and cemented my love for Blade and his woman forever, but also because I never wanted this book or this phenomenal series to end. But, as endings go, it was transcendent. And not without a shattering twist! Let’s just say that I’m counting down the days until the first book in the Paragon series is released!! But until then, I’ll be right here, re-reading BLADE, my new ultimate book boyfriend. 5 Million out of 5 STARS!!!!!
