HE FINALLY FOUND THE ONE…BUT THEN SHE VANISHED.
After nearly dying on a Bravo Team op, former Marine Zade King spends the final weekend of his recovery in paradise where he meets Gabby. She’s smart, funny, beautiful…everything he’s ever wanted in a woman. Then she disappears without a trace.
SHE’S NOT WHO HE THINKS SHE IS.
Growing up in the foster care system, Gabriella Stevens learned a lot of things. How to lie, how to fight, and most importantly, how to be loyal. So when the unthinkable happens, Gabby will do whatever it takes in order to help the only family she’s ever known. Even if it means putting her own life on the line.
CAN SHE REGAIN HIS TRUST IN TIME TO SAVE HER SISTER?
When Bravo Team is tasked with shutting down the country’s largest human trafficking ring to date, they know their best chance at gaining intel is from the inside. The problem? The person best suited for the dangerous job is the same woman Zade has fallen in love with.
As they work undercover together, Zade’s determined to learn who the real Gabby is. When he finally does, he falls even harder for the strong, determined woman. But just when they start to think they can have a future together, their cover is blown, and Gabby’s targeted by the same monster they’re trying to destroy.
With his Bravo brothers and Ghost’s Delta team by his side, Zade vows to stop at nothing to save the woman he loves…before it’s too late.

Super fast paced! I felt like the story never let up! Zade and Gabby are a great couple. They even learn that they work well together. Not really much relationship angst, which I soooo enjoyed! Can’t wait for the next, and hope that Sam gets her own story.

I have been a fan of the R.I.S.C. series since the beginning and after reading Rescuing Katherine we all knew that Zade King was in a bad place. He took some time off to recuperate and met Gabriella Smith during a long weekend in Grand Isle, Louisiana. He felt that they had an immediate connection and thought that she felt the same thing until she disappeared. I really felt bad for him because it seemed as if he as had nothing going his way. When his team is handed a new and dangerous op the last person he expects to run into is Gabby and is she really who he thought she was? Gabby has had a rough start in life but finally found a great foster home at 17 and the girl she thinks of as her sister has gone missing. Nothing and I mean nothing will stop her from doing everything in her power to find her sister. She never expected to meet someone like Zade and even though this is the worst time in both their lives to begin a relationship neither one wants to be without the other. Together along with the R.I.S.C. team these two embark on a roller coaster into the seedy side of the criminal underbelly of Mexico. I honestly cannot say much about the book without giving away the story and I won't do that! Buckle up and get ready for a lot of action, angst, lust and love. Rescuing Gabriella was told from dual POV and it stands alone however the R.I.S.C. team members are inter-connected throughout their books so I recommend reading every story!

Anna Blakely knows how to create and write stories that grab your attention, pulls you into the stories, and allows you to experience what is going on. Rescuing Gabriella is another winning book in her R.I.S.C. Series and the 3rd book in the Bravo series. Each book is a story of its own, but reading the books from the start of the R.I.S.C. series allows you information on different characters, background history for many future stories, and how this all comes together.
I won't repeat the blurb on the book's jacket, but I was glad to see Zade get his story. I was also glad about the awareness of human trafficking that was brought into the book along with our heroine Gabriella. Gabby has had an upbringing that was far from the norm but gave her the skills she needs to use to get her sister safely back home, no matter the cost to Gabby. Throughout the book, Zade is discovering different facets of Gabby than those he discovered at the beginning of the book. He finds himself enthralled in every new facet he discovers about her. Then it comes time to put a plan together to rescue Gabby's sister and take down the monster responsible for this despicable crime. Zade, his teammates, the Dept. of Homeland Security and Gabby are faced with it's a now or never time to execute this op. The reader also gets the privilege of an appearance of Susan Stoker's Delta Force to lend a hand in all of this. Will they successfully find Gabby's sister? Will the monster get Gabby too? Will Zade and Gabby have their HEA? Reading this book will answer those questions and more.
You will find yourself going along for the ride as danger, deception and dominance await you while reading this fast-paced story. I couldn't put my book down, the story kept my attention and my eyes glued to the pages. If you like alpha males, a heroine that won't give up, danger, suspense, a budding romance, and shutting down a monster who handles the country’s largest human trafficking ring, then I would say this is a book you will enjoy reading.

I’m already a huge fan of Anna Blakely’s books, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise that I love Rescuing Gabriella, book three in her Special Forces: Operation Alpha, Bravo series.
After being shot while on assignment, Zade King is taking some R & R before returning to work as a Bravo team operative. While on vacation, he meets the lovely Gabby, and the two have an instant connection, that is till she ghosts him. Zade is heartbroken and can’t stop thinking about the woman with whom he thought he’d share a future. While on assignment two months later, Zade is working undercover in a bar in Mexico when who should walk in but Gabby. She’s there waiting to meet with the same human trafficker Zade is there to take down. Is it a coincidence? Zade will have to question her to find out where her loyalties lie and to find out if her feelings for him are real or just an act.
I love this book so much. I especially love Zade and Gabby having to figure out if they’re setting each other up or if they’re for real. Gabby is hilarious and stubborn, but she’s also determined and strong. The plot is fast-paced and exciting from start to finish. As usual, Blakely has written characters who deliver and make you want to keep reading. Zade and Gabby are each dealing with insecurities , questioning whether or not they’re good enough, and each helps the other answer that question. This book also features a tremendous band of brothers who who are loyal and fun. I’m already looking forward to the next book in the series, Rescuing Ellena.
This book can be read as a standalone, but you’ll be happy if you start from the beginning of the series! Let me know if you read - I’d love to discuss!

This is book 3 in the Bravo series and I would absolutely read the previous books before reading this one as you see some of the characters in this one in those books although this one could be read as a stand alone and still understand everything. After being injured on a mission Zade King spends time on an island just trying to forget. When he meets Gabriella Stevens he ends up spending the whole weekend with her, and thinking what they have could be it for them. Until she disappears and he finds out that she had lied to him about who she was. Gabriella grew up hard and learned what she had to in order to survive. When something unthinkable happens, she doesn't hesitate to do what she has to in order to help the people that she considers her family. No matter the consequences to herself.
I absolutely loved this one!! Zade is this man with a heart of gold, who is protective and sweet while still being alpha and kick butt! Gabriella grew up hard but it didn't turn her bitter or hard. Instead she managed to pull herself up and still has this huge capacity to love people. And the ones that she lets into her heart? They are there for life and she will do whatever she has to help them. This one has not only a romance at the heart of it but it has action and suspense characters that you want to know more and more about. It kept me reading from start to finish and while on the one hand I wanted to know how it was going to end on the other hand I didn't want it to end! Now I just to know some more about some other side characters that were introduced!!!

Anna Blakely has really stepped it up with this Bravo RISC Team book. This one is by far my favorite of the 3 Bravo books. Zade King is having hard time dealing with his injury from the last mission, and takes a small time away. While visiting Grand Isle, he runs into Gabriella Smith, they spend a wonderful time together. He evens wants her to come back to Dallas with him. But when he comes out of the shower, she has disappeared and left him a cryptic note.
Weeks later, after searching high and low for the beautiful redhead, his team gets notified of another mission to take out a man who is trafficking young women. While uncover to flush out the notorious men, who does Zade spot, but his missing redhead. Unprepared for this chance meeting and in a very unsavory place, his team automatically believes she is part of the gang of villains. After dragging her out and taking her to their hideout, Zade finds out more then he bargained for about Miss Gabriella Smith.
With her life on the line, and her motives pure, she pours her heart out to Zade about why she is there. After convincing his boss and teammates, they continue the arduous job of getting to Hector Andino.
This spellbinding book will keep you on the edge is a must read. Getting a lifetime of happy endings is awesome.
Join me in waiting for Miss Blakely's next Bravo book about the Bravo Teams Boss Gabe.

This book was so suspenseful, you won't want to put it down.
Zade and Gabriella spent a weekend together when they needed it most. These two are dealing with some heavy issues and just want a few stolen moments to remember the good things life has to offer.
I loved the character of Zade. He was so unlike an alpha hero that I have read in a long time. This is a man who is honorable, loyal, protective but also not afraid to show his emotions and/or feelings. He is a man who wants the whole package and knows he wants it with Gabby.
Gabby is put in a very difficult situation. She has been asked to do something very dangerous in order to save someone without any help, backup and limited resources. However she is a very strong woman and is willing to sacrifice to help her family.
I loved the suspense in this book. It was the"keeps you on the edge of your seat". I loved the men in action especially when they teamed up with Susan Stoker's men.
I also loved the Gabby was able to hold her own without any training and you got to see this smart, sassy woman who even though she was afraid, you saw her rise to the occasion and do what needed to be done.
There were many twists and turns in this story, it was one wild ride.

July 7, 2020We've all heard about it, some have even experienced quickly falling in love. But what happens when you are trying to stay incognito while searching for your kidnapped sister when it happens?
That's what happens to Gabriella when in a moment of hopelessness she meets Zade. 3 days of bliss before she realizes what she's been able to ignore. The guilt overwhelms her and she sneaks out of their rented room to continue her search.
Zade has always been a guy more in tune with his feelings than most. Sex means something to him, he's always been the one to hold off rather than bed hopping. So just the fact that he spent his first 3 days knowing her sequestered in their bedroom shows he was in deep from the get go. The pain he felt when he realized she was gone was an all encompassing ache. When his search turned up nothing, he realizes he was given a fake name.
Imagine his surprise when one month later he spots her while on a mission in Mexico. Why is she here? Who's side is she on? Is this a second chance or just another crack in his heart?
Love this series, definitely one I can see myself re-reading over and over.

"You gave me hope at a time when I thought there was none. I'll never forget that or you." Hot from the first page, and you can't stop turning the pages. A definite adrenaline read. Zade makes a connection while in New Orleans, but the woman ghosts him while he's in the shower. Totally by coincidence, they meet again in La Paz, and it's not the greatest reunion as there is twist ties and a chair involved. A new plan is put in place using Gabby and the R.I.S.C. team as well as Ghost's Delta team. I love how Zade is always taking to himself about her being cute, and all the things she says about herself and how he is going to make it all better. Just makes me smile when I read his thoughts. Lots of twists and suspense in this story and you won't be disappointed. Ms. Blakely has fit right into her writing career and I'm so glad that I'm able to read all of her books right from her first. She is a one click author for me. I recommend her R.I.S.C series and her Bravo Series.

A Quick Adrenaline Rush Romance
Another winner from Anna Blakely. Zade, the more sensitive Bravo team member, still reeling from his failure to protect a teammates woman, takes time off to get his head straight. He meets Gabriella and the two share an instant connection as well as three very steamy days only for her to disappear from his bed. A month later while Bravo team is tasked with taking out a notorious trafficker, the pair meet again. Suspicions fly from both as they each think the other is working for the bad guy. After Gabby confesses she's there to find her kidnapped sister, they join forces to take the evil down together. Gabby is a strong, resourceful character who will keep you laughing with her feisty attitude. She is the perfect foil for Zade who you will fall in love with all over again. You will not be able to put the book down. But by the last chapter you'll want to throw the book across the room as you get a peek at the next teammates story only to realize you have to wait a few months to learn what happens.

Anna Blakely’s novel number three is just as good as the first two Bravo books; and though I wanted a big family reunion at the end with the foster parents, the lack thereof did not detract from the five star rating. The heroine (Gabriella) and the hero (Zade) meet in unfortunate circumstances—she is looking for her kidnapped sister, and he is physically recovering a gunshot wound from an op gone wrong. Then Gabby sadly for both disappears, and Zade discovers that she is not Gabby Smith as she said. On the next op to take down a criminal who deals in human trafficking, Zade’s team discovers Gabby may be involved, but things are not what they seem. Tips have led Gabby to this particular criminal, and she just wants to get her sister back. Needless to say, readers will enjoy the excitement, love, danger, honor, friendships, and determination that occur throughout the rest of the book when the special teams and Gabby work together to rescue her sister and others. We definitely need more Bravo books by Anna Blakely.

Wow! When I started this series, I thought for sure Nate was going to be my favorite hero. Even after reading Matt's story, Nate remained #1...that is until Zade. Zade is out of this world and so is Gabriella! Zade--so strong, a true protector with a heart of gold, and Gabby--a selfless, fierce warrior, a survivor--my SHEro! Their connection--strong, powerful and so freakin' amazing. And while things moved swiftly for them I believed every minute of it. I could feel the intensity of their chemistry. Both Zade and Gabby were fighters who would do anything and risk everything to stand up for what's right. These two had me hanging on their every word and action. I could practically feel Zade's energy whenever Gabby was anywhere near that slimy, sleazey monster of a human trafficker. And the courage it took for Gabby to do what needed to be done was outstanding. I think I would have been sick to my stomach if I had to face any of that. This story was truly awesome!

Rescuing Gabriella
OMG! This story was totally intense and heartwrenching! Zade meeting Gabby and both connecting on a deep level was truly heartwarming! It is truly amazing when couples fall in love almost at first sight. Gabby was looking for Sam when she met Zade. Both were lost and feeling hopeless but they each gave what they both needed. Then Gabby disappears. The Bravo Team is tasked with taking out a sex-trafficker when these two run into each other again on the mission. The last few chapters get really intense when Gabby is kidnapped by the monster. It was interesting to learn that a DEA agent was undercover to take the monster down. Zade basically saved the day as he reaches Sam and Gabby. After only six days together, they become engaged! They start to work on their happily ever after! FANTASTIC job Anna! I would highly recommend this book! Can't wait for Gabe's book!

Recuperating from an op that left him injured, Zade King loved the last weekend when he met Gabriella 'Gabby' Stevens for what should’ve been a one-nighter but ended up being a weekend. He was ready to make plans for their future but by the time he came out of the shower, Gabby was gone and Zade spent the next month searching the fake name she’d given him. Zade’s team is assigned to a trafficking case in Mexico, he’s stunned to see Gabriella.
Gabriella knows she’s running out of money and time to find her abducted foster sister but she’s certain she’s caught the eye of trafficker that may have her. Before she connects with him, Gabby’s drugged and taken out of the club. Awake, tied to a chair, Gabby, thinks the trafficker’s thugs are questioning her and says whatever she can think of to get to her sister. Zade’s team wonders if Gabby’s working with the trafficker; Zade enters the room, reciting pieces of Gabby’s life she didn’t want him to know.

Book 3 of the Bravo series is a whirlwind of action, adventure and romance! Rescuing Gabriella focuses on team member Zade who is recovering after almost losing his life in a previous book of the series. During recovery, he meets Gabby and quickly falls head over heels. Unfortunately, as quickly as they meet, she disappears and he has to return to his job. Surprisingly, this is not the end of Zade and Gabby and as quickly as they were torn a part, life throws them a curve ball and the next case his team is assigned ends up bringing him face to face with her. Through some misunderstandings and a rekindling romance, Zade and Gabby will have to work together to bring down some very bad people. Luckily both are up for the challenge!

D.N.F Ridiculous plot.
Gabby and Zade had a hot weekend. Zade started to fall for her, but when she disappears it’s obvious that she lied about who she was. When she turns up at a nightclub that they are at trying to catch a human trafficker, they suspect that she’s involved with the target.
Gabby is trying to find her foster sister, that she believes was taken by the trafficker. This is where I stopped caring about it. Gabby is in a nightclub trying to entice this evil man into…… WHAT??? What was she hoping would happen? That he would confess what he does and hand her sister over??? It’s just ridiculous! This plot has also been used in a Susan Stoker novel before and it annoyed me then.

Rescuing Gabriella was so awesome that I was upset when I had to put it down to do something. I was riveted by the book from the start. Anna Blakely wrote a compelling story that had me laughing and tearing up. The story was an excited page turner, and Zade and Gabriella have incendiary chemistry. I love the sense of family among the team. They would do anything to help each other. Susan Stoker’s Delta team was a great addition to the suspenseful story. Zade and Gabby meet at just the right time. Then the find each other again just in time to save the world from an evil force. I love a good happily ever after.

Rescuing Gabriella
Grab your e-reader, sit down and hold on - you are going on a fast paced adventure with Zade and Gabby. They met one weekend while each was trying to recover from real and perceived failures. At the end of the weekend Zade wanted to keep things going between them but Gabby left him high and dry. When they both ended up in La Paz, Mexico it seemed too coincidental to not be a set up. Zade was on a mission of rescue and taking out the bad guys when Gabby arrived in the exact same location. Everything that follows will leave you enthralled and hating when the end comes.

Another nail biting read full of suspense and action, great characters and a plot that would have most women scared to go out on their own. Gabriella is feisty independent and strong, she's had to be and now it's for her sister. Zade has fallen but then she went missing, just when he is about out of hope lady luck comes his way. I found this gripping and often tense, on the edge of my seat or just smiling, I love The range of emotions when I'm reading and about the only thing I didn't do was cry, the teams and agencies supporting each other to get the results needed is awesome. Started 8/4/21 finished 10/4/21

In addition to a spicy romance there is some hard hitting, fast paced action in Rescuing Gabriella. Sex trafficking is at the core of this story. For once it's Ghost's Delta team who need Bravo's help instead of the other way around. Zade and Gabby really do have an electrifying connection or so he thought until she ghosts on him. Finding her in Mexico and discovering they have the same man as a target is a shocker. Having her become part of the mission does not sit well but she will not be dissuaded. She proves to be a worthy team member and that makes him proud while at the same time drives him crazy.

I borrowed Rescuing Gabriella ~R.I.S.C. Bravo Series ~ Book 3 by Anna Blakely from the Kindle Unlimited Program.
Zade King, ex-Marine R.I.S.C. Bravo team member was shot in a op and on his last week of recovery time he goes to an island in Louisiana to relax and get his head straight. He meet Gabriella (Gabby) Smith or really Gabriella Stevens. After three days she vanishes.
On the next op in Mexico when the team is after a major human trafficing ring, Gabby reappears and the op gets going with lots of action, a great ending and a job offer too. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

A great read. Can't wait for more.
If someone ever asked me which series I loved the best from Anna Blakely, there would only be one answer.........all of them. This is Bravo Team book 3 and this time it’s Zade’s Story. The chemistry between the two characters was awesome and I felt like a voyeur whilst reading about Zade and Gabrielle in the first part. *fans face. But the inevitable happens..... the lead disappears but with all good reads all is not what it seems. Lies, danger and a whole lot of trying to get there in time are all guarantees in this book. We also see ghost and his team from Susan stokers book as a help. Love the story and the characters. Can’t wait for more from this great author.

Gabe’s story was perfect! While trying to heal, figure out his future, he meets Gabby…the perfect woman for him! But she runs. She feels the same but it scares her so she runs. But when she needs help, she knows Gabe is the only one who can help her save her sister. When they cross paths again, Gabe finally sees the real Gabby and the chemistry is even more off the charts. I love how fast paced the story is and how it keeps you on the edge of your seat to see what’s coming next. Can’t wait to see what’s up next in this series!

WOW WOW WOW! I dont know how Anna does it but her books just keep getting better and better. Gabe and Gabby are off the charts HOT then she runs for being scared but when life gets to be a little to much she has to get help and little does she know she turns to Gabe's company for that help which forces them to have it out. Once they both get over the hurt it's no holds bars and the chemistry is unreal. But that little thing called life likes to throw those punches. They both fight to overcome and it's amazing to watch.

Zade & Gabriella's story is a nail biter. The action scenes are the edge of your seat good and the romance is steamy. Zade, someone you can easily fall in love with, is a man not afraid to show emotion. Gabby is street smart, trusting no one, flies by the seat of her pants, and a strong woman willing to sacrifice it all for love and family. A 5 star read. I received this as an ARC from BookSprout.

Great!
Actually she's rating because this was actually a pretty great book. I really enjoyed most all of the characters. This was a book of determination, compassion, kindness, and doing the right thing. I enjoyed Zade and Gabby story. I think they really made a very interesting couple. The author did an amazing job in putting these two characters together. The rescue for Gabby was very interesting. Zade fill in love, I believe with that woman at first sight. This was a really great book! I recommend this book to all romance readers.

I can't stop reading
This story is entertaining with plenty of action, suspense but some times I just want to scream out, no, no!
For a special ops team they are not very smart. It was clear that Andino was setting a trap, and they walked straight into it.
Gabby is one hell of a woman, she never gives up. She worked so well with them, you think she was working with them all along. I am really enjoying this series
