Synopsis
Easy going soldier Kale Montgomery, a self-
proclaimed ladies man, has no plans of settling down, especially not with his best
friend- the sexy, sassy schoolteacher Lucy Dawson. Their relationship, though
unconventional, is mutually beneficial, and they wouldn't have it any other way.
Friends with benefits? Casual lovers? Whatever you want to call it, they’re having
fun, in and out of bed, and to them, that’s all that matters. At least that’s what they
think, but how long can you spend in someone's bed before you find they're also
infiltrating your heart?

As their casual fling with no strings attached
progresses, it's not long before they realize they're both in way over their heads.
One fateful night changes their lives forever in ways they could never have
imagined, giving them the push to finally admit that maybe, just maybe they want more than they’ve let on. Their mutual attraction rapidly intensifies as it shifts from burning lust to unrelenting want, need, and possibly even love.
Suddenly the idea of settling down doesn't seem so bad. In fact, it sounds pretty
damn perfect.

Suddenly the idea of settling down doesn't seem so bad. In fact, it sounds pretty

Just when things seem to be falling into place, past
pain and renewed insecurities rise to the surface and threaten to smother the flames
of their passionate relationship, reminding them both why they’ve always kept
the idea of love at arm's length. Will Kale and Lucy realize that what they've been
waiting for is each other, or will the blazing whirlwind of their feelings burn out too
quickly, causing it to all go up in smoke?

Excerpt
She looks me over, and I love the fact that she’s
checking me out. I don’t know why I’m so drawn to her, but I am, and I want to get
to know her better, at least where the bedroom’s concerned. Eventually, she extends
her hand, and I give a firm handshake, the kind she wanted when we first met.
“Please, Kale, call me Lucy.”

her hand, and I give a firm handshake, the kind she wanted when we first met.
“Please, Kale, call me Lucy.”
Shaking her hand, I say it out loud. “Lucy. I like it.”
“That’s fortunate since I’m stuck with it. Okay,
Montgomery. As much as I love flirting with a hot ass soldier in the parking lot of an
elementary school, I’ve got to get going. Maybe I’ll see you around?”

She starts to walk away, but I grab her hand,
reeling her back in. I’m not ready for her to go, yet I don’t want to seem like some
crazy stalker guy.

“Can I see you again? You know, outside of an
elementary school?” I ask, my eyes bearing down into hers, begging for her to say
yes.

She hesitates, and I’m afraid she’s about to say
no when she finally responds. “I don’t date. I’m not looking for anything serious, so if
that’s what you’re looking for, I’m the wrong girl.”

My cock practically sings at her words. A no
strings attached relationship with a hot teacher right before I deploy? I couldn’t
have asked for better luck.

“I don’t do relationships, either, Lucy. I just want
to get to know you and to have some fun. No feelings, no strings, no nothing,” I tell
her, and watch as a look of relief washes over her.

She starts digging in her purse and I watch as
she scribbles something on a piece of paper before hanging it to me. “Number’s
right there. Call me when you’re feeling adventurous,” she says. Before I can say
anything, she spins around and swiftly walks away, leaving me to wonder just how
adventurous she can be.

If I’m not writing or looking through tons of
photos of hot men, all in the name of research, then you can probably find me curled
up with my Kindle, ignoring the rest of the world. I love my sports almost as much as
I love my books. My other obsessions include red wine, hot men, country music, and
all things Grace Potter.
