Blurb: Marine Corps Staff Sergeant Peter Goodwin is on vacation. With no family of his own, he heads out on post-deployment leave to a buddy’s hometown. He expected snow, some relaxation and maybe a willing woman. But he never expected to find a woman like Sarah—someone who makes him think about more than a quick affair.

Sarah has been done with men for years. Ditched in a tiny town by her now-ex, she made the most of her life by standing on her own two feet. Men complicate things. But when one sexy “complication” strolls into town on leave, Sarah figures there’s no harm in a quiet, simple vacation fling. After all, the rules are spelled out from the start. He leaves, she stays.

The passion that sparks between them is a welcome surprise. But Sarah’s more than just a fling—she’s the key to Pete’s best friend’s past. Now Pete has a decision to make, but either choice will hurt someone he cares for.

Review: HOT HOT HOT!!!! This story was wicked awesome. A total winner and a great sequal.

The characters kicked ass, the plot was smokin’ and the flow was wonderful. With palatable emotions throughout, my breath literally caught more than once. Now, for those of you who don’t dig stories that contain a lot of “coincidence” this and the first story may not be for you. For me? I loved them both. I would love to see a third story with Tony and could totally see these as a print collection….but that’s just me :)

Blurb: Staff Sergeant Travis Donovan is on the hunt for his little sister. Though he hasn’t spoken to her in years, his last deployment reminded him how short life is, and it’s time to reconnect. Only problem? The one piece of contact information he has, a cell phone number, belongs to someone else now. A woman named Ariel. A woman he can’t get his mind off.

Ariel Winston doesn’t have time for a man. Her plate is full with work and grad school and family obligations, and she’s fine with that. But the innocent friendship she’s sparked with Trav, the anonymous texter, can’t hurt. Right? It’s not like she’ll ever meet the guy face to face.

But when these two collide during a night of voyeuristic pleasure, they have decisions to make. Will they balk at what fate has dropped into their laps? Or be willing to look beyond the unique circumstances and enjoy their finite time together?

Review: Okay, so if you don’t like a story with lots of coincidence then you might want to pass. Me? Well, I think this one kicked major ass:) Hot, sexy Marine ass. Hua!!

Let me start by saying that I was sucked in from the blurb. And since my family is full of jar heads and devil dogs, it just hit a bit closer. I’ve always had a thing for dress blues, and even though there weren’t any in this story, the guys were smokin’! The story? Oh, yeah. It rocked ass, too :)

The author, Ms Reed, was able to pull it all together in a wonderfully classy way that left me craving more of her work.

**SNAPS** And can I just share this from her ABOUT THE AUTHOR… “Nothing stirs the blood quite like a platoon of sweaty Marines running by in formation, does it ladies?” OMG!!! I just got shivers and tingles :o
