A Seal's Strength by JM Stewart *Release Day Blitz*
A sizzling new series about three friends looking for love-and the sexy SEALs who are ready to fulfill their craziest fantasies.
This second chance was worth the wait . . .
As a SEAL, Gabriel Donovan did the
toughest jobs imaginable without blinking an eye. But three years after
his wife's death, the idea
of dating still makes him sick to his stomach. His daughter desperately
needs a mother, though, and there's nothing Gabe won't do for his
little girl.
Stephanie Mason doesn't run from
anything. Not even coming face to face with the "one that got away" on a
blind date. Steph's body vividly
remembers every single thing about Gabe and while some things have
changed, the way he makes her feel sure as hell hasn't.
Gabe and Steph know that love comes
with risks, but if they're brave enough, this second chance might just
bring them the love of a lifetime.
Maybe he
was right. Maybe it was time she was honest with him.
Careful to
keep her voice low, she turned her head and looked off down the
street. Honesty might be the best policy, but she couldn’t force
herself to look into that disarming hazel gaze while she said the
words.
“I wasn’t
prepared for this. I was prepared for a weekend. A little fun with
someone I trusted once. That’s different, you know, than a hookup
in a bar. But you’re…you. It’s childish, really, to still feel
that way. To be jealous of a dead woman.” She heaved a sigh and
finally forced herself to look at him. “But I am.”
Her insides
shook as she waited. That was the most she’d ever told him. She
didn’t know if she actually wanted his response and yet part of her
craved it. A holdover from all those years ago. Back in college,
she’d wanted him to know she’d fallen in love with him, because
she’d held out this hope he’d tell her he loved her back.
Pathetic that the need still hovered beneath the surface.
Those keen
eyes worked her face. Then, finally, he smiled, warm and alluring.
“So, dinner? Next Friday?”
There was
that sexy smile she’d known would make an appearance, and she was
caving, exactly the way she’d known she would.
She heaved
a sigh and nodded. “Fine. You win. I’ll have dinner with you next
Friday. But since I owe you for the car and clearly you’re not
taking my money…”
“Nope.”
He winked, eyes gleaming with playful impishness and a touch of smug
self-satisfaction.
Giddy,
happy little butterflies took flight in her stomach. “Then I’m
cooking.”
One dark
brow arched and the corners of his mouth twitched. “Can you do
that?”
This time,
her facade cracked. She punched him in the shoulder. “Yes, thank
you very much. Contrary to popular belief, I have actually grown up.”
Those
gorgeous eyes glinted at her. “So you have.”
“Friday.
Six o’clock. Don’t be late.” She pivoted and marched toward her
car, determined to get away from him before she embarrassed herself.
As she reached into her purse, however, it hit her. Gabe had her
keys. She halted, sighed, and, face hot as Hades itself, turned back.
Gabe stood
grinning at her, his right arm extended. He jangled her keys,
dangling from his thumb and forefinger. “Missing something?”
She rolled
her eyes and strode back to him, but when she reached for the keys,
he held tight to them.
“I look
forward to seeing you, you know. I’ll say it again, in case you
missed my point last time. Were you anybody else, that first date
wouldn’t have gone this far.” He finally released her keys and
winked at her. “And I won’t be late. I’m never late.”
