Synopsis
"Whether making my heart melt or my head burst into flames, Annabeth Albert draws the reader in and keeps them captivated." -- Gay Book Reviews In the wake of tragedy, SEAL Mark Whitley rushed stateside to act as guardian to his sister's three young children. But a conflicting will could give custody to someone else--someone Mark remembers as a too young, too hot, wild party boy. Even after six years, Mark can't shake the memory of his close encounter with Isaiah James, or face up to what it says about his own sexuality. Isaiah's totally over the crush that made him proposition Mark all those years ago. In fact, he's done with crushing on the wrong men altogether. For now, he's throwing himself into proving he's the best person to care for his cousin's kids. But there's no denying there's something sexy about a big, tough military man with a baby in his arms. As the legal details get sorted out, their long-buried attraction resurfaces, leading to intimate evenings after the kids are tucked in. A forever future is within reach for all of them, if only Mark can find the courage he needs to trust Isaiah with his secrets--and his heart.
