TRUST, LOVE …AND LIES.
After barely surviving enemy torture, Captain Chuck Tanaka doesn’t trust himself to do more than ride a desk—but new orders leave him no choice. Assigned to the investigation of a mob boss whose luxury cruise ship is reportedly a hub for terrorist activity, Tanaka goes undercover. His target: JoLynn Taylor, the mob boss’s daughter.
As a child, JoLynn saw her beloved uncle murdered. Since then, she’s stayed far away from her father’s crooked empire. But when he falls ill, she returns, hoping to mend the gap between them. Instead, she finds herself on the run, one step ahead of unknown enemies. The only thing keeping her alive is the man she knows as Charles Tomas, the only man she’s ever been able to trust.
Unfortunately, he’s also the man determined to destroy her family…

THEY’D DO ANYTHING FOR COUNTRY.
AND EVERYTHING FOR EACH OTHER.
After a dark ops malfunction, Major David Berg finds himself dead center in a military trial. It’s a race against time to root out the truth, and Major Sophie Campbell isn’t making that any easier. The hot JAG wants to bring down David’s unit and fast. His testimony is crucial to winning a case that will make her career. All Sophie has to do is ignore this witness’s unflappable charm, his unnerving good looks, and a strong, solid presence that commands her attention. It’s not easy for David, either. His attraction to this take-charge beauty is turning him inside out. But these adversaries have more in common than secret, mutual desire. There’s a traitor somewhere in the dark ops and now, to find him, David and Sophie must work together—relentlessly, tirelessly, and so intimately it could be damn near fatal.

Major Hank Renshaw knows almost everything there is to know about Gabrielle Ballard. Except for what it's like to touch her. Because Gabrielle is his best friend's fiancée. Or she was. Until his buddy died in battle—right after making Hank promise to find her ...
So now Hank's in New Orleans. In Gabrielle's apartment. Watching her nurse her infant son. It's not honor that draws him to her. It's not duty that makes him stay. It's need he's feeling, plain and simple—the desire to take the woman he's always wanted and finally make her his own.

ReplyDeleteI am intrigued by the secret divisions of the military. In Australia, one of the divisions is the SAS. These men go through such rigorous training, do such dangerous missions, and we only find out the details many years later. annpa@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteAloha, Catherine! Thanks to your family for their military service! I'd love to see a "desk jockey" find himself in a situation where he/she has to rise to the occasion!
ReplyDeleteI love Navy in general. Love the uniforms...
ReplyDeleteNavy, Marines, Seals, any branch. There can never be enough military books.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the first grandchild.
I love stories about Navy Seals, Marine Special Ops, Army Rangers and Air Force pilots, all of the special forces that need lots of extra training, etc.
ReplyDeleteI am from an Army family and I like to read about them. I often wonder why we have so much on Navy Seals but what about the Green Beret.

I really love the Navy men- those sea men- oooooh. Okay, could not help it! sdylion(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI love reading about the secret military branches. Hidden missions forbidden to talk about. Adds a bit of mystery to it all! I enjoy all military romances but that would be my favorite :-)
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of books about SEALs that I've enjoyed, but not many about the Coast Guard.
