If you have read a River Savage book before, then you are familiar with her Knights Rebels MC Series where her stories are a bit gritty, violent, and raw. And so when I found out River Savage was writing a new series, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on HETCH and see what Ms. Savage has in store for her readers and the new direction this series will take on.
HETCH, the first book in the Men of Swat Series was a complete surprise. Well more like an amazing surprise. As much as I love reading River’s Knights Rebels MC Series, it was so refreshing to read a book that deals with a group of SWAT team members and the life that they have to endure. While I am used to the gritty and violent nature of River’s MC series, I loved that River Savage has managed to mesmerized her readers with the pull of raw emotions and tackling a sensitive issue of suicide.
Liam Hetcherson is part of a tactical unit in the POLICE department. As a member of SWAT, his job entails him to put his life on the line in order to protect civilians. As a tough man, he has this hard exterior who tries to keep his emotions in check since he knows and has experienced loss first hand. Liam Hetcherson knows what it is like to not be able to save someone you love and so he keeps his inner turmoil bottled up.
Liberty Jenson is a social worker director who works for an at risk home for young boys. Liberty loves her job and tries her best to help these young men find a purpose and drive in life. While Liberty loves her profession, her love life is pretty much non-existent that is until she finds herself getting acquainted with her neighbor, Liam “Hetch” Hercherson.
“He pulls back slightly, his eyes flash with confusion, before flicking back to hunger. Then his lips lock back to mine, diving his tongue back in my mouth and branding me like he owns me. It’s like being thirsty on a hot day, and downing a bottle of water in twenty seconds. You swallow every last drop, suck every bit of air until you’re out of breath. Only then are you satisfied, fulfilled. Relieved. That’s what kissing Hetch is like.”
Hetch and Liberty didn’t realized that they were neighbors who shared a very thin wall. So you can imagine, Liberty can hear all the casual hook-ups that Hetch brings into his bedroom and Hetch can hear Liberty’s effort to self pleasuring herself. And so when these two finally discovered that they were neighbors when they meet for the very first time, sexual tension was radiating off these two. And soon all the sexual tension couldn’t be contained any longer once they shared a fiery hot passionate kiss. One kiss lead them to be tangled in the sheets and the rest was history. As much as Hetch and Liberty were compatible in the bedroom, Hetch was still struggling with his inner turmoil with his father’s suicide. Will Liberty be able to save Hetch and free him of his burdens?
“Fuck me. If I wasn’t so opposed to love, I think I could find myself falling for her.”
HETCH was one of those sexy emotional reads that packed the right amount of emotions, heat, chemistry and love to pull readers into understanding the tangible bond between Liam and Liberty. Both Liam and Liberty’s job were to save people but together, they were able to save each other in more ways than one. I love the chemistry and different direction that River Savage took with this book. She allowed readers to feel for her characters and see below the surface of their vulnerability, raw emotions and love. So if you are looking for a book that was exceptionally well written that is filled with depth, steam, understanding, new beginnings, healing and love then I urge you to read HETCH and meet the MEN of SWAT.
