Draven is the third book in the Nemesis Inc. Bravo Team series with characters from Susan Stoker’s Seal of Protection series. 

We jump into the action the evening ending in Kentucky’s story (book two of the Nemesis Inc. Bravo Team series) with a text message listing coordinates. 

Indy has called, and Draven will answer that call in true operator fashion. 

I have said it once, and I will say it again: Bella’s characters are a fictional family I never knew I needed, and I love how they all continue to show up in each story and just a little bit more to it. 

The best line, hands down, in this story, was from Trev, “Have you not watched the Hallmark movies? Sister’s best friend is in trouble, and you run in to save the day. Do I say congratulations now, or should I wait until you figure it out?”

Both Draven and Indy are solid characters, and it shows throughout from their witty banter, their strong wills, and their protectiveness to how hot they are with one another. 

I never want any of Bella’s stories to end. However, at least when they do, they all HEA’s. 

Bonus: I cannot wait to read more of the McKinley brothers and the adventures that await the Four Xs.
