Publisher's summary

Ex-marine. Ex-wife. Ex-hausted.

I left my brothers in the marines to start a family. I left my ex-wife when that family drove her to drink and drugs. Now all I have left is my son - and he's all I care about.

I can't afford to make another mistake. And the girl who moved in next door? Mistake written all over her. She's got the sweetest smile, the hottest damn curves, and behind it all...a haunted look. I can't take my damn eyes off her.

My powerful body and coarse attitude make her nervous - and as she tries to start a new life away from her abusive ex, she has her own reasons to stay away. But we can't help it. We're f--king drawn to each other. And when she tells me how much she wants a baby...I make every mistake in the book. Because I want a family again.

I want her. My son. And a baby. And when her past comes calling...I'll fight to hell and back to keep it.

Contains mature themes.

Finding her power!

I enjoyed this book very much. There was just a couple of things in the story that I didn't connect with, but alot I did. It's amazing to find power in yourself over abuse, and realize you never have to tolerate it again.

💕 Yummy

This book is absolutely great. Enjoyed how it slowly builds up to the finale. Military man retired who falls in love with a lil school teacher. Did they make good music together absolutely. He has a son and she loves him as if he were her own. Enter the asshole ex boyfriend and his ex wife the mess hits the fan. The narrators did an excellent job. The book was no struggle to listen or read. I had both. Well wrItten book and I am on my way to find something else by this author. 👍👍

Incredible story about rebuilding trust

This is my first book by this author,but I will be on the lookout for other titles, as she truly captured the spirit of resilience and overcoming trust issues in both main characters.
