A steamy military age-gap romance with some adventure, a couple of Russian bad guys, and more than a few funny bits
Mia
How long do you hang on to hope before you realize you're just prolonging the inevitable? I finally had to face facts, leave Florida and Alexei behind, and move on with my life.
This trip to Hawaii is supposed to help me forget about him. Like that could ever happen. So I'm probably hallucinating when I take shelter from the storm and hear an awfully familiar voice. Apparently, I'm doomed to embarrass myself in front of the man.
But this Alexei isn't the sweet, calm man I left behind...
Alexei
God help me, I don't have it in me to let Mia walk away again. She doesn't know, she can't know, why I've had to resist claiming her for so long. Or letting anyone, even Mia, get a hint of how I feel about her.
Seeing her here, nervous and exposed to the elements, I'm done with waiting. She's not flirting with other men as a war games vamp. I don't give a damn whose idea it was. Only a few more weeks and the danger around me will be minimized. She's worth the risk.
Just my luck that's when everything goes to hell...
Finding Alexei is the first book in the ACI Unleashed series but can be read as a complete stand-alone (HEA included).
Every year, ACI holds its annual summer war games to test tech and strategy (and play in the mud). This is the only book set in Kauai. The series continues with Challenging Burke when the games move to Embrace Island in the Pacific Northwest.
ACI Unleashed
Every summer the government military contractor Alpha Corps International holds their annual war games to test tech, train on military strategies, and revel in old service rivalries.
Now the 'civilian' women get to play too - and they're here to prove that there's more than one way to win a war.
Can the ex-military tough guys protect their hearts and hold their ground against a battalion of women who think the best kind of salute is a kiss?
