Former Navy SEAL, Beau “Shark” Atwood, is the epitome of the three Bs: bossy, brawny, and broody. For years he’s been focused on his military career and then building his security business. The rest of the time he spent taking care of his younger sister, Blaire, and her daughter, Carrie. But his girls are good now. Blaire is married to the love of her life, and little Carrie is the apple of her daddy’s eye. Despite that, Beau has never even considered having a real relationship with a woman. He doesn’t have the time nor the desire to get involved with all… that. Not that he suffers from lack of female companionship in the least. He just prefers it quick, dirty, and uncomplicated. That all changes when he meets his sister’s new nanny, Charli. She’s everything he shouldn’t want but can’t seem to stay away from. Sweet. Young. With the prettiest blue eyes he’s ever seen and a soft little voice that’s as sweet as a Georgia peach. Yeah. Totally not right for him, but he wants her anyway. And what Beau Atwood wants… Beau Atwood gets. But underneath Charli’s sunshiny exterior, things aren’t exactly what they seem. She has secrets, and when they surface, the only thing protective, grumpy Beau wants to do is help his sweet little Peach fight them. Now he just has to convince her to let him.

Three years ago, Bristol Hopkins swore to her fiancé on his deathbed that she would never give her heart away to another man. She even had rules to ensure that she would never fall in love again. Rule One – No feelings. Rule Two – No staying the night. Rule Three – No receiving oral. Rule Four – One-night stands only. Then she met former Navy SEAL, Waylon “Tank” Hanford, a six-foot-eight mountain of muscles, and they spent a glorious night together in her bed. Waylon was a sweet and generous lover—thank God because the man was massive everywhere . Rule Two flew right out of the window because they couldn’t stay off each other long enough for him to leave. The next morning, the guilt and regrets creeped in, and even though Waylon would be any woman’s dream man, she couldn’t break any more rules by seeing him again. Despite her best efforts, she found it impossible to push him away because the biggest thing about Waylon Hanford was his heart. One-by-one, the rules were broken until only Rule One remained. No. Feelings. Oops. Too late.

The problem with deciding what’s best for someone else is that sometimes you don’t know the entire truth. I’m Camden Fitz, and I’ve been a self-proclaimed playboy for years now. Hell, I was one step away from wearing velour and smoking a damn pipe. Ever since, in a move of self-righteous sacrifice, I’d broken up with the love of my life for her own good sixteen years ago. When I finally looked up Shiloh Simms and found out that she’s living in New York and engaged to be married to a man named Vincent Bellucci, I decided it was finally time for me to move on. Then, out of the blue, Shiloh called me, in danger, scared out of her mind, and on the run. Turns out… Vincent Bellucci is part of a mafia crime family, and she had overheard some things she shouldn’t have. Bringing her back to Dallas to stay with me was both a blessing and a curse. I tried keeping an emotional distance, but the years had done nothing to quell my possessive and protective nature where Shiloh was concerned. However, the woman I had never gotten over trusted me with her safety, but she didn’t trust me with her heart. When the danger escalates, can my former SEAL team buddies and co-workers at DFW Security Force help me save the girl of my dreams and make her reluctant heart mine once again? This is a spicy, second-chance romance that is intended for ages 18+. If you don't like steamy love scenes, humor, and a bossy alpha male with a heart of gold, then this book is probably not for you. ⚠ Some scenes of violence
