Injured during his last mission, Navy SEAL Matt Hunt is ready to face an even bigger mission: picking up where he’d left off with his best friend’s sister….
Except Jenesi isn’t that forgiving. Prim and conservative, Jenesi knows what she wants and that is to make sure she doesn’t make a fool of herself with Matt again.
But when this Navy SEAL is determined to claim her as his, she questions his true motives. Is he looking for a fling or a walk down to forever? Can she trust him not to leave her again?
~Excerpt~
“I’m home.”
Her green eyes narrowed. “Go to hell.”
The door slammed in his face. He stared at the orange, leafy wreath hanging on the white panel. Shock coursed through him. What just happened?
He rapped on the door, anger rising through his throat. Could she seriously be this mad at him? “Jenesi, open up.”
“Go home.”
“I am home.”
“Go back to your dad’s.”
“Open the door.”
“What do you want?”
“I want to talk.”
“Jared isn’t here.”
“I’m not looking for your brother.”
“We have nothing to talk about.”
“The hell we don’t. You can’t be mad at me about last time. We both had too much to drink. We weren’t acting like ourselves.” He stuck his hands into his pockets, his heart pounding hard. “Besides, I miss you.”

Sarah's Review
Thanks again to Decadent Publishing and Clarissa Yip for feeding a reading addiction. Authors and publishers like you are what keeps this blog running. Thanks for keeping us going!
The title alone caught my attention and was an instant yes that I would review it, never-mind that I have read and reviewed all the others in this series. Then the cover....whoa! This character is one that caught my attention!
I have been trying to figure out how to review this for a few days now and I am still at a loss for words. It's been a while since I have been at a loss for what to say. With this being a short story, it makes it difficult to not give anything away that isn't already in the blurb.
What happens when you realize that you are in love with your best friend's sister? What happens when you already left this woman wanting more? A reunion like no other.
