Synopsis (Goodreads):
The Epilogues: Part I

Hadley has worked her butt off to earn her title as Potentate of Atlanta. All that’s left for her is the gauntlet. A show of prowess for the citizens of Atlanta. A taste of what their new POA can do. She’s ready to dazzle them and bring home the prize.

Until an old friend gets kidnapped. The price of his freedom? Her flunking the gauntlet.

Either she gives up on her dream or her friend.

For Hadley, there’s only once choice.
Thoughts on Badge of Honor: I genuinely can't get enough of Hadley and Midas and all the allies Hadley's gathered as she fought for Atlanta with everything inside her. So this? It was a sweet, blood-soaked, danger-laden little treat that thrills me to my bones.

First off, Hadley and Midas. They're just adorable together. He takes care of her when she gets so wrapped up in her work that she forgets to do things like eat and sleep. He's her rock and she's his center. And the extended pack (starting with Mama Kinase) is the family she could have had if things had been different in her other life. (I'm still making angry eyebrows at Hadley's mother and the things she did to Hadley/Amelie. She might be out of Hadley's life, but Hadley's still working on being enough because of her and GRRRRRR.)

Besides being one half of our growly couple, we also get to see Hadley ready to come into her own as the POA. Naturally, things don't go smoothly, though. People are in danger, a potential rival for the position has appeared, and Hadley's not about to let someone important to her be the price for her becoming the POA.

Some steam, some danger, and Spock ears. Because Hadley is Hadley and Midas is determined to give her all the things that make her happy.
