About the Book:
Seth has a special skill-set, all right, but it has nothing to do with hammering nails. As a retired member of The Resistance—an elite group of ex-military soldiers—his dark, unsettling past haunts him. He needs a place to lay low, and an out-of-the-way B&B is nothing short of perfect. The blonde beauty doesn’t trust men, and he doesn't plan on sticking around long enough to change her mind.
The closer they get, the more they can't seem to keep their hands off each other. And while Bobbie holds on to her fear of watching another man walk out of their lives, Seth's mere presence has put them all in jeopardy. The only way to ever be free of his dangerous past is for him to accept one last mission...

Excerpt:
I
tried to keep myself from wincing. “No, that’s all right. I don’t need to talk
about anything.”
“Okay,
then you listen while I do the talking.” He moved toward me and came to a stop
directly in front of me. “I’m only here for a short time.”
He
didn’t say anything else so I guessed that was his big ta-da moment. But I
still didn’t understand what that had to do with me. “Okay. So what does that
have to do with last night?”
“I’m
a drifter. I never stay in one place long. It keeps things from getting too complicated
that way.”
“Well,
I sure the hell didn’t ask you to stay for the summer. That’s on you…or
possibly your uncle.”
“I
know that.” He sighed. “Look, I just need a quiet place to lay low for a while
until I figure out where I’m heading next. But once I do, I’m leaving.”
“So?
I still don’t get—”
He
held up a hand to stop me. “You aren’t the type of woman who’s okay with being
left behind.”
I
wasn’t sure why that statement annoyed me, but it did. “You don’t know anything
about me.”
He
shrugged one muscled shoulder. “Let’s just say that I’m more perceptive than
you think.”
“Apparently
not. Because I have news for you, Seth. Last night, I planned on taking you
back to my home, having my way with you, and kicking your ass out of my bed
before the sun came up.”
“Oh,
I know,” he said with a grin. “But you wouldn’t have asked me to leave once you
got me into bed. That’s why I stopped the whole thing from happening.”
I
rolled my eyes so hard that they hurt. “You really must think you’re something
to make a statement like that. Maybe it would’ve been the other way around.
Ever thought of that? Perhaps you would’ve been begging me to let you stay
while my foot shoved your ass out the door.”
His
mouth quirked with amusement. Yeah, he wasn’t buying it for a minute. Maybe he
really was more perceptive than I thought. After all, he was related to Junior.
“Is that a challenge?” he asked smugly.
Jeez.
Was there no end to this guy’s arrogance?
His
gaze scanned down my body and back up to my chest as he said, “Don’t get me
wrong, Bobbie. I’m not the right guy for you. You clearly need someone who is
going to stick around on a more permanent basis. That’s not me. But I’m more
than happy to keep you warm until he shows up.”
Figures.
Seth Landry had a special skill-set, all right, but it had nothing to do with
hammering nails and everything to do with getting tangled in sheets. Because if
that kiss he’d planted on me last night was any indication, the man wasn’t
lying about his skills in the bedroom. That was one thing I would bet my life
on.
