Elect by Rachel Van Dyken

Elect by Rachel Van Dyken 5 STARS!!! Rachel Van Dyken has done it again!! Elect is the second book in the Eagle Elite series. I didn’t think that this story could get any better because Elite just blew my mind, but Elect kept my heart beating fast and my curiosity peeked. Elect starts right where Elite left off with Trace, Nixon and Chase having to find a way to live with choices that were made and trying to survive. Trace has caught the eye of the Nixon’s enemies and to protect her he has to shove her into Chase’s arms. Hoping that his enemies believe that she is dating Chase and she means nothing to him. Trace on the other hand loves Nixon with everything she is and is not willing to let him go. She is going to play along with Nixon’s plan so no one gets hurt, but that doesn’t mean she is willing to move on from him. Chase has been the guy that has always been there for her to protect her and comfort her when times have been hard. He has gone out of his way to make sure that she is safe and feel wanted. Loving Chase is easy, but not in the way that he wishes. Chase is Nixon's cousin, but more like a brother. They have promised to always be there for one another and to never betray one another, but when it comes to Trace betraying Nixon seems impossible. He can't stop the way he feels and being around her all the time makes it hard to deny himself. Now is top job is to protect her and deceive his families enemies that will kill Trace to hurt Nixon. Will being forced to spend every minute with Trace do him in and make him deceive Nixon or will be he able to control his desire to love Trace and make her his? Will Trace be able to have a future with Nixon or will she eventually fall in love with Chase? Will Nixon be able to protect Trace or will they fail and all pay the price? A life for a life is required, but whose life will it be? Rachel did an amazing job writing this story and hope that there will be more about all of the characters. I could not decide which guy I wanted to end up with the girl; I loved them both. This story kept me flipping through the pages and I could not sleep until I knew how it ended.
