A Seal’s Vow
After fifteen long, dangerous years in the service, Navy SEAL Clay Pickett is ready for his new mission: build a model sustainable community and show the world an exciting alternative to a consumption-based life. If that means heβs got a deadline to find a wife in order to win the reality TV show thatβs filming his sustainable adventure, so be it. Heβs got just the woman for the job in mind: beautiful, dedicated Nora Ridgeway.
When Nora left her job as a school teacher in Baltimore to live a simpler, Jane Austen style life in Montana with her friends, she was relieved to escape the escalating threats of violence from an unknown student stalker, but she canβt help feeling sheβs abandoned the other high schoolers who put their faith in her. Sheβs torn about Clayβs advances, too. On the one hand sheβs never met anyone like the strong, sexy SEAL. On the other hand, lifeβs taught her to take relationships slowβand Clayβs on a deadline.
When arson strikes and Nora disappears, Clay knows heβll need every trick he learned in his time with the SEALs to track her down and save her life.
Can two people caught by their pasts have a chance at a future?
Excerpt:
When Clay looked at her like that she thought she could handle anything, but Nora figured it wouldnβt do to let him know the effect he had on her. She was glad that with the big crowd gathering around the empty firepit, the cameras had too much to focus on to be filming them. βWeβve got a lot of work to do before we can think about that,β she warned him.
βYes, maβam.β
She bit back a smile. βWhy do I get the feeling you were a handful back in school?β
βWhat makes you think Iβm not a handful now?β
Her gaze dropped below his belt buckle. βSeveral handfuls, from what Iβve seen.β Nora swallowed. Maybe Clay hadnβt heard that.
βDid you seriously just say that out loud?β Clay asked her.
βI think I did.β Nora giggled, tried to cover it up and snorted instead. A laugh escaped her tightly compressed lips. She never said things like that. And she never snorted. Another unladylike sound slipped out.
βHandfuls?β he repeated. He set his plate down. βHandfuls.β
βSeveral.β Nora giggled again.
βWere you drinking the cooking sherry again?β
βI think Kai slipped me something.β He must have, because suddenly, perched on a log next to Clay, eating solar-cooked stew, she feltβrelaxed.
Clay leaned in and kissed her neck. βWe can measure those handfuls later if you like.β
βNo sex. Youβre not supposed to distract me from my work, remember,β she whispered back, his lips sending shivers down her spine.
βI never agreed to any of that.β he agreed. βWe can at least cop a lot of feels while youβre writing, right?β
Nora laughed out loud and several heads turned their way. Clay kissed her neck again. βCan we go to your tent right now?β he whispered in her ear.
βNo.βΒ Β
