ARC Review: Saving Mr. Norcross by Anna Hackett

Title: Saving Mr. Norcross

Author: Anna Hackett

Series: Norcross Security #11

Pages: 130

Releases: October 16, 2025

4 stars out of five
4 stars – It was really good

When I saw Hackett was writing another novella featuring Vander and Brynn I was excited. These two are my favorite couple from this series so I was excited to see what they would be dealing with next, especially after the revelations in the previous book that Brynn is pregnant. 

This was a sweet and action packed novella. These two try to take a vacation in Italy and relax some before they start announcing their pregnancy and become parents. Instead they are dealing with Vander and his brother Rhys being kidnapped by the mafia. 

I loved this novella. Brynn is an awesome and kickass woman and I love that we get another story with her kicking ass. She doesn’t let her pregnancy stop her from fighting for her man or doing her job as a detective. We see a little tension between these two at the beginning because Vander is terrified of her getting hurt, but the tension just makes them feel like a stronger couple in the end. Also, I love that we see Brynn rescuing Vander because Vander acts so untouchable. 

Overall, I really enjoyed this story and loved getting to revisit this couple. It makes me want to reread this series!  I am also wondering if there will be a spinoff with Vander’s friend Justin, but we will have to see, I guess. 

TW: pregnancy; kidnapping; explosions; death; gun violence and injuries; vomiting;
