When the United States Navy fails to prove after 5 years that a female would be able to pass all their training and earn their trident and claim the title of a Navy SEAL, they come up with a plan to keep the press and the public off their backs. It's risky and a lawsuit waiting to happen, but will the benefits outweigh the risks?
Tanner Harrison has led a relatively normal life, save for the fact that she is secretly obsessed with the elite special operations group, the Navy SEAL's. When her 5th birthday turned out to be the biggest terrorist attack of the 21st century, she knew she had to do something with her life. After training for nearly a decade, she's given an offer of a lifetime that to her would be insane to turn down but on the same token, insane to accept.
How will the Navy SEAL's deal with having a 15 year old girl among their ranks?
How will Tanner deal with the pressure the US Government and Special Operations Command has put on her?
Will she earn her trident, or will she fail like all those before her?

Remember me
All it took were five seconds for Max Henson to realize that the dream of coming home to the love of his life was shattered. It took him forever to calm his racing heart and to stop the tremor in his hands before he got up the nerve to knock at HER door. Max was or rather had been a Navy SEAL for god's sake and now he was fucking scared of coming back to the only woman, who mattered. To be honest, Max was terrified, because all he ever wanted was Josie Benett. Max prayed to God that Josie remembered his promise to her, but it had been fucking 5 years. He still remembered absolutely everything about Josie and a small smile made its appearance on his lips. She was the only one, who got that kind of reactions out of him. Max could hear footsteps coming closer to the door and he sucked in a calming breath. However, it did not help at all as the door opened and Josie's beautiful emerald green eyes looked in confusion at his face. It felt like a punch to the gut and believe me Max had received a lot of them, but nothing had hurt more than Josie's puzzled look right now. It was almost like she could not remember, who he was. But that was fucking impossible, right? "Can I help you, sir?", her sweet voice asked him and it was in this moment that Max heart shattered. A heart that had always just beaten for Josie.Complete

BROKEN VOWS (Lucas & Emilia Book 1)
Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return. I'm no longer the "golden boy with a bright future" they all remember. Instead, I carry the scars of a tortured past. A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parents' property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust.
