The Academy Saga, Book II: Cadet-in-Training

By C.J. Daly

Kate's destiny has been determined for her.

Hidden out in the country for most her life, Kate Connelly suddenly wakes up, handcuffed to a hospital bed, in the psyche ward of The Academy. Her crime? Being "gifted." And it's Officer "Ranger" Nealson's job to make her adhere to The Academy's agenda for her. Even though he's the one who drugged and dragged her in. Kate's hate for Ranger, and his academy, is at an all-time high. Ranger has his work cut out for him . . . and Kate does too. She has to fight through the rigors of the Cadet-in-Training program, and quickly. If not, she'll lose the one privilege she's been given at The Academy-access to her precious little brother.

And until she graduates from the CIT program, Officer Nealson is banned from Missions. When General Weston finally offers a juicy recon to Ranger, he wants to jump at the chance to prove himself again. After all, catching bad guys is his thing. Almost all pros for doing it. One con-Cadet Connelly has to ride along.

The hardened officer finds he's slowly been growing a soft spot for his mentee. But he's determined not to end up like his father, and former Elite Cadet Pete Davenport-throwing away their career for a girl (not even a woman). And Kate has lingering feelings for Pete, who risked his life to warn her, and conflicting feelings for Ranger. She has to set both aside to focus on completing her first mission.

When the dust settles, old alliances are broken and new ones are formed. But one thing remains the same: Kate's destiny has been determined for her by The Academy. Ready or not . . . she's set for Missions. Will one of the former elite cadets step in to help change her fate, or will she be left to fight the Academy's agenda alone?

Intriguing read

MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK After reading the first book in this series, I was anxious to read book two, and it did not disappoint. Again Author C. J. Daly writes an appealing story that will have you on the edge of your seat! I was glad to see even more development of the characters we met in book one, as well as the new characters we meet. There’s a lot of tension, especially after Kate finds herself in the psyche ward of The Academy. Her one mission is to gwt through the Cadet-in-Training program so she will be able to see her brother. I feel bad for Kate but at the same time I don’t. I would like seeing her develop a little more. And as far as team Ranger a d Team Pete, I think I’ll sat back and watch for a while. I did enjoy seeing things through Rangers eyes in this book. There is a lot if drama in this book, more so than book one I think, but all in all it is a great read. I can’t wait to see what book three has to offer. I highly recommend this book, and this series. And especially if you enjoy military reads. This book is Four Stars for me. A special thanks to the author/publisher for a copy of this book.
