What's the worst that can happen when you're forced to co-captain with your rival? Nova Shields can't stand Leo Hendrix. She hates his arrogance and obnoxiousness, that crooked smirk he does when he thinks he's right. Leo can't stand Nova's wits, the way she folds her arms and quirks her eyebrows. The way he can never read what's happening behind those green eyes. After a combined black operation was almost sent awry in '99 as a result of their constant disagreements, the pair vowed to never work alongside each other again. That is until Leo's partner suddenly loses his life in '02, leaving Commander North no choice but to bring in the only officer capable of filling the void: Nova. Their partnership ignites with animosity, a consequence of the lingering grudge. They can't seem to find that comradeship the Commander longed for. That is until they discover how once they work together without disagreeing, arguing and trying to wring each others necks, they can in fact form an unstoppable duo. A duo that transcends the operations they face; that forces them to confront the feelings they've been denying for so long. Feelings that only surface through the betrayals, bloodshed and near death experiences. Feelings that may be accepted, but only when it's too late.

“Has that ‘curl up with hot chocolate and read’ feel to it.” ~*~*~ Monica doesn't believe in life after death. Obligations, certainly. But, after her husband's death, there hasn’t been much ‘life’ to speak of. Just her kids, her farm, and the man who rents it to run his business, Marshal. She decides to change that. It won’t be like it was the first time. Nothing could be like it was with Jason. But she didn’t quite anticipate how different the dating world had become. The more she learns, the more panicked she becomes until she literally runs from her first date . . . and directly to Marshal. She was just looking for someone to ease the loneliness. What she found was a friend she’d already learned to lean on. But can Monica let go of her picture-perfect memories and embrace a new dream? With a new man?

Third book in the Hitman series! It can be read as a standalone but highly suggest reading the others in order to understand the characters a bit better! Fall for some romance. Single dad, widow, ex-SEAL, all things I didn't want to be seen as through the eyes of someone i care about. Keeping it all to myself was my biggest mistake. When my wife died I honestly didn't think love again was ever going to be in the cards for me unless you counted my amazing son. I relied on one night stands to get me through, and drinks, lots of drinks. Running into Logan shook me to my core. Single, nurse, has two best friends, likes cooking. Yep that's basically the extent of my dating profile. I swore off men after being screwed over by my ex fiance. Who would have thought till death do us part meant nothing. We didn't even make it down the isle when I was in a major car accident. So, when I turned and saw Casey in the bar, my mind went blank and I started to sweat...a lot. That man stole my heart without even saying a word. What the hell am I going to do?
