Still, as the two work to solve the mystery of who is trying to harm her and why, Joy can’t help falling for the sexy former SEAL. But when they face their toughest challenge, will Brennan stick around long enough to realize love is the only thing that can save them both?

A one-night stand leaves this Navy SEAL with a surprise... It was just supposed to be one night of no-strings-attached fun, but now Sofia Popov has become the center of former Navy SEAL Ian Campbell’s life. Sofia turns out to be the teacher of Ian’s teen son, Gavin—the same teacher who meets him in the hospital when Gavin suffers a seizure at school. And he’s not the only teen who’s landed in the hospital. Ian is already formulating a plan to make those responsible pay, when Sofia drops a bombshell: she’s pregnant. Sofia’s in way over her head—not only with Ian but also with a dangerous cartel that wants her silenced. While the police don’t take her concerns seriously, Ian’s private investigation firm does.

Now it’s up to Ian’s private investigation firm to get to the bottom of things to protect the teens of San Diego—and the woman who’s winning Ian’s heart.

Orders to the Bronze Bay, Florida, SEAL base is a change of scenery and pace.

If she's up for the challenge. Magnolia Sager lost the only man she has ever loved to his barely-legal secretary. To make matters worse, their teenaged daughter was the one to catch her father in the affair. Mentally battered and bruised, they flee to Bronze Bay for a fresh start.

Meeting a man who makes her weak in the knees is surprising. Wanting to continue dating him is shocking. Falling for him is insanity. Loving him, impossible.

How far will one man go to save the life of a stranger? More importantly to Caroline, will he do it twice? Matthew "Wolf" Steel hated flying commercial. Luckily his job as a Navy SEAL meant he didn't have to do it very often. He'd been unlucky enough to be assigned a middle seat on the cramped jet, but fortunately for him, the woman next to him was willing to switch seats with him. Hoping for a relaxing flight, Wolf was pleasantly surprised at the good conversation and sense of humor the woman had as they flew 36,000 feet over the countryside. When Caroline boarded the plane to Virginia to move across the country for her new job she never expected to be seated next to the hottest guy she'd ever seen. She also never expected he'd be so easy to talk to. She knew he'd never be interested in talking to her if he hadn't been trapped in the seat next to her, but it was a nice way to spend a long plane ride. Neither Wolf nor Caroline were prepared for a terrorist hijacking of their plane, but if Caroline thought that would be the last time she'd see, or need, Wolf, she'd be sorely mistaken. **Protecting Caroline is a stand-alone love story.
