Anchors and Eagles

Where danger dances on the edge of desire and love comes with a price. Starting over in a small town, in a place Jane's never been, is hard enough without the fact that on her first day in a new gym, she sat on a guy's face. His face. Jane Barlow's life is upended when her father is killed by the cartel he's chasing. To keep her family safe, the FBI suggests moving somewhere new. Roped into a fake relationship that becomes anything but, she gives everything to Griffin, only for him to rip her heart out and then disappear. Griffin Marsh, an almost-retired Navy SEAL (almost being the keyword), finds himself absolutely smitten by the strangest woman he's ever met and fumbles the bag at a very crucial moment. Stubborn as always, Jane refuses to give him the time of day, and he knows it's deserved. When Griffin's military life collides with Jane's personal one, will he be able to make it to her in time to save her life? Will she be able to soften her heart and forgive him-before it's too late? Or will they both be destined to live in what could have been?

Torn between love and war, his heart wears the scars of a past his soul can't forgive. SEAL operator Mikey Johnson has seen his fair share of horror. The one thing that keeps him going during his deployments is the comfort of knowing who is waiting for him at home. That is, until he returns one day to a betrayal that cuts him deeper than the rest. And love gives way to anger and mistrust. When his team ships out on their next tour, he finds that they've been assigned a new, temporary sniper from another branch. The last thing he expects is for that teammate to be a woman. Scottie Aleck, the first woman to graduate from the United States Army Sniper Course, finds herself a pawn in a political game as she's assigned to a team of Navy SEALs. She's familiar with their reputation. They've refused to draft a new SEAL for years, leaving the spot open. She has big shoes to fill, and with her career on the line, Scottie's determined to prove herself. Then, she meets him… The mission is simple: find the bad guy, eliminate the bad guy. Except nothing is as simple as it seems when feelings become involved amidst combat and war. They aren't supposed to fall in love. They can't fall in love. But violence has a way of breaking all the rules. This is a spin-off of What I Should Have Said. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.

One shot could change everything-even their chance at love. Following a funeral, Navy SEAL operator Bernie Phillips finds himself in a small town filled with gossip and traditions he doesn't understand. Battling survivor's guilt, he throws himself into reckless adventures, but nothing prepares him for the fiery, curvy cowgirl he accidentally hit with a bottle cap a week earlier. Despite her clear disinterest and the fact that he never thought he'd see her again, Bernie can't get her out of his mind. What starts as a distraction turns into something far more dangerous-real feelings. Katalina Fisher has always followed the path her parents laid out for her, even if it means marrying a man she doesn't love. But when Bernie shows up, her carefully planned life is turned upside down. His relentless attention and her own growing attraction awaken a desire she's never allowed herself to feel-the freedom to choose her own future. Romantic feelings, even love, may not be enough when a single shot changes the trajectory of their future. Cattle drives, branding day, rodeos, and bucking broncs are the least of their concerns as a life-threatening situation comes into play. Now, it's not just their relationship on the line-it's Bernie's chance at redemption. Book three of five in the series, but can be enjoyed as a standalone!
