When I left the Army, I didn’t just lose my teammate, I lost my best friend.


And even though he never came out and said it, I knew I was the one he blamed.

Did we still talk? Sure. Monthly texts about nothing and empty promises of visits that never panned out. But losing Hawk—the man I admired most in the world, the man I secretly loved—felt like losing a piece of myself.

When he showed up unexpectedly to help our team with security for an event, I was surprised. Hurt that he never told me he was coming. But deep down I still hoped we could find some remnant of the friendship we used to have.

But of all the things I imagined from his visit, nearly being killed right in front of him wasn't one of them. And as I opened my eyes to find a terrified Hawk kneeling over me, I couldn't help but wonder if he felt some fraction of what I did for him. Seeing Rhiannon lying on the ground, bruised and bloody, threw everything into terrifying perspective. I failed her once already. There’s no way I’ll allow it to happen again.

After all, we used to be teammates. More than that. She was my best friend. I was supposed to always have her six. I thought I did up until the night she told the us the terrible truth—that she’d been harassed and threatened by our superior for years. And she never told us until it got so bad she was forced to leave the Army.

I should have seen how she was suffering. I should have protected her. Then again, Rhiannon never wanted to be protected. As one of the first female Green Berets, she wanted to prove herself. Stand on her own.

But even the strongest people need help sometimes. And this time, I’m not going anywhere. Because I’ll do anything to protect the woman I love.

Guarded from Retribution is a friends-to-lovers romance with a brave and intelligent heroine, a protective hero, action and danger, emotional wounds and angst, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. No cliffhangers and a happily-ever-after guaranteed! (Can be read as a standalone!)

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
