Hell or High Water (Lost and Found, Inc. Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 1,216 ratings

When ex-SEAL Nate Wolfe learns a woman from his past is in danger, nothing will stop him from protecting her. Not even her.

Dallas Child Protection Services Investigator Kay Taylor doesn't want or need Nate in her life. But he doesn't seem to understand the word no. He seems to also have forgotten the brand he left on her heart.

When Kay is taken and sold to a monster, the devil himself couldn't stop Nate from doing whatever it takes to find her...but will he be in time?

Each book in the Lost and Found, Inc. series is a standalone with a guaranteed happy ending.

Ms. Romantic Reads said:
There was a fair amount of action and crafty plot twists in this story which got the wheels in my head turning. I loved that the author kept me guessing and trying to put puzzle pieces together. The dynamic of "Wolfe's Pack" provided the humor but also the backbone of the story. They each had just enough face time that I came to care about them and long to read their stories. As for Nate, he was on the quiet side and absorbed the verbal snark that Kay threw his way. It was obvious that she hadn't quite forgiven or forgotten. The sexual tension between them was quite amusing. I think I breathed a sigh of relief along with them when they decided to put each other out of their misery. The story picked up steam towards the end with some surprises and the heroine fighting for her life. The fellas definitely stole the show in this book, and I can't wait for the next book, which I think will be Tyrell's story.

    I really enjoyed the first book in the Lost and Found Inc. Series. Ms. Alexander had well developed characters with depth and a twinge of mystery.

    Lost and Found Inc. was founded by some ex-Navy Seals as a detective agency and business of problem solving. Nate Wolfe was one of co-founders and has a history with Kaycie Taylor, the two featured characters in the first book.

    As the series begins we find Kay Taylor, who is a Dallas Child Protection Services Investigator, but wakes up and is tied and bound in a dark room. She does not what was going on. As she begins to piece her last memories, she realizes that someone attacked her from behind but she did not know who or why. While she was in pain her biggest fear was that her blouse was torn and her shoes were gone.

    Kay manages to get free and run and yell for help, but she passed out. As soon as she woke up 2 Dallas Police Detectives begin to question Kay. But, her freedom was short lived because she was captured again the next day. Kay insisted that she do some investigation, she took her best friend Holly with her. Kay went inside a building to say hello to her father, when she returned Holly was nowhere to be found. Then suddenly someone grabbed her and just as her kidnappers were putting her in the van, a mysterious motor cycle driver barreled toward them. Her rescuer told her to “run”. She got away and the police came, but she could not find the mysterious motorcycle hero and Holly was gone.

    The mysterious hero was watching the police and Kay run through the ordeal. Her hero was an ex-Seal Nate Wolfe. Nate and Kay were together 10 years ago when she was a 22 year old criminal justice student. Kay had made her opinion of him and his choices clear when they parted company. Kay does not know that Nate has been assigned to be her body guard. When Kay is taken and sold to a monster, the devil himself couldn't stop Nate from doing whatever it takes to find her...but will he be in time?

    The story is has several twists and turns and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I stayed up until I finished, yes it is that good. Of course, we all read romance books for the romance. There is some sizzling hot passion that can get your blood pressure up. You will not regret reading this wonderful story of Kay and Nate.

    I am completely not a fan of heroes and heroines who are cowards with their feelings. Although this progression was probably realistic, I want extraordinary from the books I choose to read. There is some humor, but mostly this was typical drama and "you hurt me, I hate you" garbage. I liked the surprise villain and found the story good enough for 4 stars despite my dislike of this trope.
  • Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2013
    Loved it! This was fast paced and the writing was really good. Kay is a social worker and one of children (teenager)that she works with has been murdered. The killer thinks that something was passed to her and they want it back. With two kidnap attempts and people following her she needs around the clock protection. Enter sexy ex boyfriend Nate Wolfe and his friends Tyrell and Marcus, known as the Wolfe pack.

    Oh man first I cant express how much I loved these guys. They were alpha and bad ass. They were so fiercely protective of Kay who is also their friend. I loved it when Tyrell calls Kay "Little mama". Kay at times did get on my nerves. She was tough and could hold her own but she at times acted like a know it all. This is one of those books where the H/h have a history. Nate and Kay have broken up ten years ago and they still love each other but one is bitter and angry and the other is resigned that she hates him.Lots of assumptions and misunderstandings. There was some serious sexual tension going on. And when they finally gave in it was so Hot!

    This is about human trafficking and the bad guys are horrible. Its written tastefully and you know what went down without the stomach turning details. The bad guys are very obvious and there wasn't any real surprise as to what and why they were doing what they were doing. Even the mysterious Jonathan wasn't a surprise. Although I wanted to hate him for his participation with the kidnappings and selling girls in the end I couldn't. I cant wait to read the next book.

    Jerrie Alexander hooked me by the first chapter; this is the first book by her I have read as I accidentally found her on Kindle Unlimited, but it will by no means be the last. Her story lines are great, well fleshed out And proofread, which let’s agree, nothing kills a story line faster than poor proofreading as it kills the suspense.

    This is the first book in “ Lost and Found” series about rekindling a lost relationship while investigating a human trafficking ring...you will have to find out the rest yourself. I will say I especially love the fact that Ms. Alexander can refrain from using graphic words while describing the sexual parts of the relationship of the protagonists as, for me, that gets old very fast.
    My imagination works just fine, thanks.😂

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 10, 2014
    Great plot, totally held your attention. A well rounded story.

    Strong believable characters who you could empathize with. The alpha male lead is so cool and hot,(contradictory, but you know what I mean), and the heroine is sassy, determined with a heart full of love for our hero. Both deserve to be together and happy.
    The other minor characters are well written with depth and insight.
    The comrade who fell and has become flawed and lost is still important and given their support to the end. Hope in the series we find out he gets a happy ending and Holly too....please.

    The evil in the story is pure evil and the story emphasizes mans inhumanity to man,though loyalty and the importance of family is not forgotten, though its put to the test at times.

    Cannot wait to read the next book...Highly recommend to you!

    Excellent read, I am enough of a romantic to believe men like this exist. Jerrie Alexander has a way of bringing together strong minded women and unassuming hero type men. I look forward to following the lost and found Inc series. To say these books grabbed me and kept me reading till I had finished is an understatement, all tempered with the perfect amount of emotion and love making to help the story along.
    Enjoy, lose yourself in this book, you won't be disappointed, well done Jerrie, keep writing.

    This was a nice story with a bit of action throughout, from the beginning to the end. It was a bit like a soap opera, with everything that can go wrong will, but still nice to read.
