Quick enjoyable read
Ms. Talty does a nice job of packing a lot of action into this short read. My curiosity was piqued in the first page and I was hooked by the third. The characters were strong and the plot intense. This is a fast paced adventure with a shocking twist thrown in that will keep you entertained from the first page to the last.
Alec Enders, Ace to his friends, is proud of his job as a Crew Chief with the Air Force Fire Protection Specialists. He leads a talented team of firefighters who he can always depend on to give their all in any situation. When he has time off, he heads to the marina where he takes off on his boat for a relaxing day of fishing. He helps the owner of the marina with odd jobs and she gives him a discount on his boat slip. She also makes delicious cookies, which is certainly a bonus. Ace is content with how his life is right now and he doesn’t think too much about dating. Until he sees an absolutely gorgeous woman one afternoon when he was picking up supplies for his fishing trip. Her beauty stopped him in his tracks and he was so nervous, all he could do was stare at the fishing lure in his hand. She was breathtaking and he was sad when she walked out the door.
Lexi Aberdean hadn’t been home in two years and she was looking forward to spending time with her mother and enjoying the beautiful Florida sunshine. Her mother is thinking about taking on a partner at the family marina and Lexi doesn’t trust her to make the right decision. From what her mother had told her, one potential investor had been very aggressive with his proposal and it sounded too good to be true. On her way into town, she stopped to see her childhood friend, Shea , who owns the local Bait and Tackle store. While she was there, an extremely hot guy walked in and she couldn’t stop staring at him. He was so gorgeous with high cheekbones, intense eyes and a deep tan. He caught her looking at him and he quickly looked away. Oh well, maybe he is shy but he was sure fun to look at. She waved goodbye to Shea, and set off for the marina. She hadn’t gone very far when a car came out of nowhere, changing her life forever.
Ace may have saved Lexi’s life after the car crash, but why was he so reluctant to spend time with her? Can he come to terms with his past and protect Lexi from the people who are trying to harm her and destroy the marina?
What can Lexi do to repay Ace for saving her life? How can she convince him that he has become important to her and that she has finally found someone who makes her feel safe?
