He says he’ll eat me alive. I hope that’s a promise. I either give up my inheritance, or spend three months with a retired Marine, Payne Sawyer, in a military town. My stupid parents think that’s a punishment. Have they seen military guys? I’ve dated frat boys, football players, and models, but I’ve never seen a group of hotter men in one place, looking so fit and powerful in their uniforms. I plan to chew these patriotic hotties up and spit them out, but then Payne steps in to put a stop to my games, and leaves me feeling like I may have finally met my match. The grumpy, possessive daddy is going to give me a punishment more ruthless than my parents could have ever dreamed of—and I’m going to love every minute of it. This is a safe, HEA, over-the-top daddy romance.
