Devlin: Scifi Alien Invasion Romance (Hell Squad Book 11) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 1,424 ratings

In the aftermath of a deadly alien invasion, two survivors find themselves locked in an alien cage and told…mate or die.

A covert mission gone horribly wrong. Cool, composed spy, Devlin Gray is used to bad situations, but locked in the bowels of an alien facility with tough, sexy soldier Taylor and told to mate is bad. Very bad. During his career, he’s had to lie and kill, he’s been betrayed, and he knows he works best on his own. Now he is forced to depend on Taylor, and together they have to find a way to escape before it’s too late…

Taylor Cates has already been to hell once before. She lives to fight for others, just like her mother once fought for her, and Taylor vows to do whatever it takes to escape the aliens. As she works with the sexy, suave Devlin, she starts to see glimpses of the man beneath the cool exterior. An exterior she soon finds she wants to melt.

In the worst of circumstances, a passion is born. But on the run for their lives, Devlin and Taylor soon discover far worse things in the alien facility: human prisoners and a weapon that could be the very downfall of the human race. A weapon that will threaten their friends, their home, and everything they hold dear.

Note to readers: This is action-packed, post-apocalyptic military romance with battle-hardened soldiers fighting off dangerous aliens...and risking it all to save the women they love.

    Devlin Gray was a master spy for MI6 before the Gizzida invasion. He has been on his alone most all his life, he prefers to work alone and has nothing to lose; had nothing to lose even before the invasion; his job is to gather intelligence and protect the members of Sanctuary. But on this mission he isn't alone and that complicates things. Taylor Cates is a member of Squad 9 and an excellent soldier. She has bonded with her squad, she's personable and protective of those she knows. And she thinks Devlin Gray needs to open his eyes and realise others do care about him. They are captured and the Gizzida order them to mate. Being locked in a cage and having to find a way out isn't new for Devlin but being ordered to have sex with a certain sexy ass-kicking soldier is new and too close to his secret desire. How to keep Taylor safe and get out of the cage and away from the Gizzida is a problem. They can fake having sex well enough to fool the aliens but can Devlin keep his façade of not caring about anyone else intact.

    "Mate or die!" Devlin and Taylor were in a horrible predicament at the end of the last book. How can they escape?
    Life events have shaped the characters of both of the stars of this 'show' into steel that is nearly impossible to break. Yet, they find love. It doesn't weaken them; it gives them added reasons to fight the enemy. And fight, they do, with the odds against their survival. Devlin makes a very sexy, hot hero with incredible talents! Taylor is a perfect match for him. She never gives up and is a more capable soldier than many men (she's a better shot than Devlin!). The author masterfully leads us through a story of tension-building high adventure with characters who will sacrifice themselves to protect their team-mates. Admirable!

    There is SO much going on here! Relationships are building for several people, some very happy-making happenings, teasers for future books. A fantastically great read; I highly recommend it.

    Former MI6 spy, Devlin Gray and Squad solider Taylor Cates find themselves captured by the Gizzida and thrown into a cell together and to make matters worse they're told to "mate" or die. Devlin started out with a bang, no pun intended, and Devlin and Taylor find themselves exploring feelings they didn't know they had. Complicating things is the discovery of a new Gizzida weapon which can hypnotize humans and make them a willing slave of the invading aliens. I'm starting to wonder how the humans will ever defeat the Gizzida because they seem to have some amazing new alien creatures and weapons, but I can't wait to keep reading and find out.

    I love stories where the character(s) have been captured or are stuck behind enemy lines. There's an immediate level of trust that is required for them to work together and escape. Devlin has experienced a lot of loss and betrayal in his life and he's used to being and working alone so while he trusts Taylor's skills he's not sure he can trust her love. Losing his family at a young age and going deep into the spy world has scarred Devlin on the inside and outside. Taylor also has her own dark past but instead of staying apart it's pushed her to protect others and embrace life.

    I loved both Devlin and Taylor as individual characters and as a couple. Anna Hackett seems really good at creating likable characters that I want to keep reading about. I felt like we only got a surface level look at each of these characters but even with that I still loved them. Devlin might be a bit of a loner but he's also really charming and mysterious so he naturally attracts female attention. Taylor is a tough soldier who knows how to kick butt and I loved that she's so independent and strong.

    As a bonus we get to see more from my favorite couple, Marcus and Elle, and it was really sweet to touch base with some of the earlier couples in the series.

    Loved this book so much.

    Devlin's character has been around since near the beginning of the Hell Squad Series, and his book is finally here!! (#11)

    When Finn's book (#10) finished, we had a bit of a cliffhanger for Devlin's book, who is paired up with Taylor from Squad 9. With that suspense in mind, I felt this was probably the most highly anticipated book of the Hell Squad Series to date.

    I have only good things to say about this book but I can't say anything without giving away spoilers. So i'll keep it simple.
    Excellent Hero/Heroine.
    Perfect amount of fast paced action.
    Interesting addition to the story arc.
    As usual, steamy.
    Great supporting cast as usual.
    Could not have asked for anything more for Devlin and Taylor.

    Just wow! Another fantastic read by Anna Hackett. The Hell Squad Series does not disappoint!! <3

    Ok. There are a lot of tough females in this series. It's why I love it so much. Thank you Anna Hackett for giving us strong female leads. Devlin is awesome. He can fight. He can love. Taylor reminds him how to be a friend and lover. She never gives up. She suffered a lot at a young age but she came out of it stronger, braver, and I think more caring. Dev is learning to laugh, to love, and how to not be alone. Together these two could defeat the Gizzida!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Devlin & Taylor. WOW!
    Reviewed in Germany on January 26, 2022

    Einfach nur ... wow! Dies ist bisher mein mit Abstand liebster Band der Reihe, obwohl mir ja auch schon die Geschichte von Holmes und Liberty extrem gut gefiel.

    Devlins und Taylors Geschichte beginnt voller Spannung, Action, in Gefangenschaft und trotzdem heiß und auch mit Zuneigung der beiden zueinander.
    Devlin und Taylor passen unglaublich perfekt zusammen. Beide sind Soldaten, stark, intelligent, aber haben auch eine ängstliche Seite, wenn es darum geht, andere in ihre Herzen zu lassen.
    Es war wunderschön, wie beide zusammen gewachsen sind, ein Team wurden, für einander kämpften.
    Auch was die Superwaffe der Aliens gegen die gesamte Menschheit sein soll, ist noch unklar und somit bin ich extrem gespannt auf den nächsten Band, um zu erfahren, wie es mit der Auflehnung gegen die Alieninvasion weitergeht.

    These books continue to grip me and have me devouring every word. In this book we see more heroics and heartache as the humans try to survive against the alien invaders.

    The raptors continue to find new and terrifying ways to capture the surviving humans. We get to witness the coming together of the quite "super spy" Devlin and Taylor, captured behind emeny lines they can't fight the heat building between them. It was great to watch these two fight to save each other while still fighting what they felt. Warriors to the core.

    I love that it doesn’t matter which book I read in this series, I am always greatly entertained, and I especially love how the they don’t just “sit around”.
    Stuff happens, aliens get killed, love flourishes and friendships become even stronger.
    There are just so many loveable characters. And I love how they all interacts.

    I am ALL for it.

    Will never tire of this series. Never.

    The reason for granting this particular story 4 stars and not 5 was the fact that even though I loved Devlin, he didn’t “sound British” to me, and that clashed with the repeated “you are so British, right know” that everyone kept commenting on and I was like “what, where”?
    Word choices are important when you deal with an accent.
    And Devlin’s character didn’t say anything that made me “hear” a British man in my head.
    Did that make me sound weird😂?
    I still love the book though.
    Taylor was my fave. I highly enjoyed that she went all “I will make him fall for me.”
    It’s nice to see a woman going for what she wants. 💪
