My code name is Aries.The stars say I’m aggressive, dominant, first in line to lead.
The stars aren’t wrong.
Zodiac Tactical is my company. It’s run by those I’ve chosen for their skills and ability to outmaneuver adversaries. We guard, protect, rescue…assist on the side of the angels.
We eliminate the threat when nobody else can.
My pastime of putting bad guys out of business has created powerful enemies, but I’ve always made sure there was nothing in my life I couldn’t live without.
Until now. Until her.
She’s not a warrior, she’s an artist. She sees colors everywhere and greets the world—and me—with a smile. I knew I shouldn’t come near her from the beginning, but she’s everything I’ve never been able to be.
And now a monster has taken her, caged her, to get even with me.
My code name is Aries. And I will burn the world to the ground to get her back.
•••
Zodiac Tactical—the team of protectors who stand at the front line in the face of danger. Come meet Ian DeRose, the safeguarding warrior who will do anything to defend gentle Wavy Bollinger.

WOW! I don't remember if I have ever cried so hard for a literary heroine as I wept for Wavy's fate. This story hit hard and made an impact like I wasn't prepared for. 
When I heard that Janie Crouch is coming out with a new series I was elated like a kid at Christmas. Even the change in POV into the first tense didn't put me off, and I admit, here it gave the story continuous intensity and flow that took a hold of my mind, making the tale unputdownable. 
An impressive feat of excellent storytelling, a gripping tale of horror and fright, an ardent story of love that has time and space to deepen and grow, a team that is ready to sacrifice for their mission and for each other - Aries has it all, it blew me away with the depth of the emotions between Ian and Wavy, with the intense terror of human trafficking, with the potent fast tempo of the fight for their lives, for what is right, and the absolute trust that bonds the mates of Zodiac Tactical team. 
Aries brings to the pages few characters from the past series by the author, and the tale has such a natural, smooth flow, emitting the kind of insights rarely seen at the first installment into a series.
I loved this story so hard, I'm intrigued by the Zodiac Tactical team members, looking forward to getting to know them and read about the troubles they face and soulmates they find. Yes, I am enamored, and  I just might re-read Aries again just to figure out what are the horoscope signs of the rest of the crew.

Some loves are meant to be from the very beginning.

Jess O’Conner and Ethan Bollinger have known each other almost their entire lives and have loved each other from the start. The people of Oak Creek have watched them grow up, and everyone has always known what they are...
Soulmates.

But sometimes, fate demands a different path, derailing even the most carefully mapped plans.

Visit the Linear Tactical world one last time with the story of Jess and Ethan all grown up as they finally get their forever.

...if they can live long enough to enjoy it.

The Young Adult genre with its angst and turmoil meets the intensity and danger of the Romantic Suspense and sweetness and adoration of the Romance novels creating just the perfect kind of adorable, enjoyable, and entertaining tale. 
Jess O’Conner and Ethan Bollinger have charm and enamored all the Linear Tactical readers since they first walked into the pages of the beloved series. Watching them grow older and closer to each other has been endearing, witnessing their tenser love melted hearts. I loved how this story wrapped up the Linear Tactical series while giving fresh clips of the future years of the characters. 
The first-person POV first took me by surprise, but it fits well into the turbulent young love story. The tale has a touch of thrilling tension of suspense, but mainly it is a beautiful, ardent tale of forever kind of love, family, and friends. A fitting and perfect conclusion to one of my favorite series
