Night Hawke by Gwyn McNamee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars

“ This man is most certainly dangerous; though, I don’t think it has anything to do with the things girls are always warned about by their mothers. This man is dangerous in a way that will destroy your body and soul. ”

“ “(F—), Jack…” He jerks on my hair until my eyes meet his again. “This is a dangerous game you’re playing.” Don’t I know it. This entire weekend has been dangerous— for him, for me, for my heart. And I don’t want it to end. Not yet. One more night. Tomorrow, I’ll deal with the fallout. ”

Night Hawke is the first addictive book in the new Hawke Family Second Generation series by Gwyn McNamee. It is set 30 years after the original series finished, bringing us back into the fold of the Hawke family.
GAH!!!! I Floved this book so hard….. being a HUGE fan of the original series, I was so excited when I discovered Ms. McNamee had plans for a second-generation series, but also a little apprehensive that it wouldn’t match the pull of the original series, let alone come close to the way the original cast captured my heart and etched themselves onto my soul………..but I was WRONG!!! I should never have doubted Ms. McNamee, and I know I have said that before, but I let my doubt get the better of me here. I knew the story would be good because, DUH, it’s Gwyn McNamee. But I was worried that because I had LOVED the original Hawkes with such a fiery passion, that this second generation may not hold a candle to their predecessors. But, I was WRONG……. again!!! If this story is anything to go by, then the new series is set to be AMAZING, and the original Hawkes have some serious competition headed their way.
Night Hawke is a short novella length story, a tasty little morsel offered to whet our appetite for the new series. It is the prequel- an introduction as such and an entirely addictive little piece that has left me eagerly anticipating the release of ‘Ruthless Hawke’ (Book #1) and meeting all of the new cast of Hawkes, as well as perhaps catching up with our favourites from the original series.
Isaac Hawke has just graduated law school and is out celebrating when he locks eyes on a captivating red head across the bar. Even though he is leaving the city to head home to New Orleans in a few short days, he’s determined to convince her to spend the night with him. No names, no-strings-attached, a weekend of scorching passion that blazes white hot and unexpectedly brands their souls. Jack has her own secrets that tether her to the ‘real’ world and puts a firm time limit on their fling. What happens makes for a sizzling hot read. But, will one night be enough? You really should read all the riveting details for yourself; you’ll be so glad you did.
This does end on a bit of a cliffhanger, but thankfully we don’t have too long to wait till the next book releases- because I. CAN. NOT. WAIT. to continue what I started here!!!!
Perfectly delicious and entirely enticing!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Gwyn McNamee!
