This SEAL's back in Texas and asking her to marry him one last time... Callie Murphy's never been one to moon over a man. Fairytale romances don't exist outside of books and she's seen first-hand how transitory love can be after watching her mother fall in and out of marriage. Derek Tilden hammered home that truth when he joined the Navy to become a SEAL—he was the boy who couldn't wait to see the world and she was the girl ready to plant deep roots. Now he's back and asking her to marry him one last time... Note: This 20,000-word novella was previously published as part of SEALS OF WINTER.
