Daylight Again:
(Hell or High Water 03)
by
S.E. Jakes
Before Prophet Drews can have a future, he must first put his past to rest.
Prophet Drews is a man on the edge, and he’s pulling Tom Boudreaux, his partner on the job and in real life, right over with him. When his old CO calls in a favor, Prophet asks Tom to join the off-the-grid rescue. But the mission raises all of Prophet’s old ghosts: CIA assassins, the terrorist Sadiq, and most importantly, John—traitor, former teammate, and Prophet’s first love.
To help bury those ghosts for good, Prophet and Tom gather the members of Prophet’s former SEAL team . . . and a spook named Cillian who’s been tailing Prophet for years. In the process, Prophet is forced to face his team’s shifting loyalties, ghosts who refuse to stay dead, and scariest of all, his own limitations.
With everyone’s lives in danger, Prophet and Tom must unravel a tangled knot of secrets, including their own. Prophet must decide how much to reveal to Tom, while Tom must decide how far he’s willing to go to help Prophet lay his ghosts to rest.
Excerpt
God, Prophet fucking loved a good bar fight—hadn’t had one in a while. He sent tables and chairs flying, was more cautious with actual people, but hell, anyone who came at him got a good, sharp right hook.
Ren had, of course, started the fight when Mal gave the signal that Cillian was heading toward the bar. Now, Prophet and Tom were the only ones from their group left inside the bar, and Tom ambled over to him while he waited by the dancers’ platform that was mostly unharmed. As were the dancers.
“You all right?” Tom asked.
Prophet nodded, noting that Tom looked entirely too pleased with himself. “That felt good.”
Tom shook his head.
“What? I needed to release some tension.” Prophet stretched his neck. “I definitely don’t get to do that often enough.”
“There are other ways to relieve tension, Proph.”
“I know that. And now I’m going to try one of them.”
He grabbed Tom and yanked him close, rubbing his rough-stubbled cheek against Tom’s, knowing full well Tom loved the scratch and burn. “You fought too, Cajun.”
“Self-defense, pure and simple,” he protested. “And I saw Mal and Cillian. We were clear before the fight.”
“And after. Saw Cillian leave with the majority of the crowds,” Prophet confirmed. “Where were they?”
“Closer to the back.” Tom waved a hand casually in that direction. “Shouldn’t we leave?”
“Not till we get the all clear.”
He pulled Tommy onto the dance floor, wrapping around him, burying his face in Tommy’s neck. Tom did the same as they swayed. Partly so they wouldn’t be spotted, but mainly because it was really nice to be able to hold Tom like this.
“Want to fuck you right here,” Prophet murmured. “Get on my knees, suck you. Then turn you around, hold you against the pillar and take you in front of everyone.”
Tom groaned against Prophet’s ear.
“Ah, you like that idea,” Prophet shifted his glance to another couple, made sure Tom noticed they were stroking each other.
“Fuck,” Tom muttered. “We need to go to clubs more often.”
“Right,” Prophet teased. “Because we don’t have enough sex.” But really, sex with Tommy was everything. It was where and how he’d gotten the best possible education on everything Tommy—and he was well aware that Tom had gotten the same information on him. Until you really knew what someone was like in bed, you didn’t really know them at all.
“Never enough,” Tom informed him seriously. “And maybe I’d push you onto your knees. Then down on the ground. Spread you and fuck you in front of everyone.”
Prophet hissed a breath, bared his throat slightly. “You’d make me perform?”
“You’d fucking love it, Proph.”
Fuck yeah, he would. “When this is all over . . . that.”
“Yeah, that,” Tom echoed.

Review: This story is part of a series and must be read in order. Prophet’s PTSD dreams are coming more frequently driving him closer to the edge, Tom is his anchor but how much can Tom take before he is dragged over the edge with him? When Prophet’s old CO calls asking for help, Tom joins him on the rescue and snakes from the past pop up and Tom covers Prophet’s back. Calling the team together to make plans in their hunt for the terrorist Sadiq and the traitor John pulls Cillian into their little group and loyalties are tried. With secrets at every turn Prophet has to decide how much to tell Tom, and can he trust Tom to stick around when he learns the truth?
Ohhhh this is an excellent addition to the Extreme Escapes, Ltd world and manages to blend Hell and High Water series with the Dirty Deeds series where they converge perfectly. Prophet and Tom are going strong and are so passionate they scorch the pages, but Prophet is hiding something from Tom, something that he thinks will drive Tom away. Add in Prophet’s increasing PTSD dreams and his hunt for the terrorist Sadiq and his missing (presumed traitor) ex-lover John and we are entering into dangerous territory as the gang get together and doubts are raised.
I absolutely adore this series, and yes it might just be because of all the psychotic men floating around who have wicked skills and it might also be because this is one gripping series where you never know what will pop up next. It could also be because S.E. Jakes knows how to write an action, suspense story that has you on the edge of your seat but the one thing I know for sure is that it has a superb couple that will go through hell for each other and are freaking scorching between the sheets… or on the floor, over the coach or… well you get the idea 🙂 .
I suppose that you’d like to know more of what happens in the story and I can safely assure you that there is plenty of danger, a daring rescue, secrets are revealed, baddies die, Tom and Prophet grow closer, there is loads of hot sex and an absolute shock near the end that has your jaw unhinging! But I am not saying anything more; you will have to read the story Bwhahahaha Mwhahahahaha.
I will recommend this to those that love action and adventure with a good dose of suspense, who love tough men who can accept love and let it grow, who loves a story that just keeps on surprising and incredible men who won’t just sit back but takes matters into their own hands… oh and an ending that could really blow your mind!
This is one of my favorite series. Tom and Prophet are just amazing. When you read them together it is just pure magic.
great post and review and thanks for the giveaway!
