** spoiler alert ** His life has always been the Marines, but now he is back to get what is his. Will everyone accept them?
Loved how these two built a solid foundation over the years before they were actually together completely. Loved how she didn’t hide their relationship and how he was determined to make a life for them. Good read!
A sweet and steamy love story. Pete is 16 years in the Marines. Home on a short leave he meets his future is a young women studying in a coffee shop. A surprise comes to both when her father and his best friend turns out to be one and the same. Pete has a few years of service and Emily collage. They agree to keep in touch through letters, and go from attraction and lust to love. Great story with a sweet epilogue.
This was an enjoyable piece and it was easy to follow! Set in the Rocky Mountains, this follows a pair of individuals that are easily connected in more ways than the obvious: intrigue at first sight, and the other being that he is her father’s best friend. After several years away, Pete stops in town to see his mother and old friend but little does he know that he’s going to meet the love of his life on this adventure. Emily doesn’t know that Pete is her father’s best friend as she has just recently entered her father’s life after spending a majority of her life with her mother. Out of respect for her father, Pete and Emily decide to take things slow and find out if there is more beyond what they already feel and for him to carry out his military career. Until Pete gets injured, he returns to finally a make a decision and tell his best friend as well as make a life with Emily.

A story that is well written but lacks some depth and chemistry. I would have liked there to be more about them being apart and their thoughts. After they are back I like the epilogue. It is written in dual POV and that gives the story more of the thoughts and feelings of the main characters.
Enjoyable very short read.
ONE EXCELLENT READ!!!
Wow! Talk about a small world. This is one exciting, fast paced, smooth flowing, heart pounding, pulse racing, page turning wonder that’s as riveting as it is captivating. A whirlwind of emotions and events that pulls those heartstrings. An instant connection, steamy chemistry and a soulmate bond that really grabs your attention. The characters are complex and believable with such depth and individuality it’s easy to relate. The scenes are so graphically detailed and descriptive you have no trouble picturing each scenario as they play off one another in perfect balance. Twists and turns abound with unexpected surprises that make for one thrilling experience. Star crossed lovers that are connected from start to finish. It was a pleasure getting to know them as they grew closer. Flora did a remarkable job bringing this read to life. Fantastic job Flora, thanks for sharing this little guy with us.
Full disclosure; I happen to like the older man/younger woman trope. This one wasn’t one of my favorites though. There was a lot in this story to like, it just didn’t all gel for me; it was mediocre.
On the plus side, the heroine is great. Even though she’s just eighteen when they meet, she has a maturity and intelligence that’s relatable. She’s not whiny, or spoiled at all, nor does she give up everything for the hero. She’s definitely her own person.
The hero is okay. I’m not a fan of men who refer to women as “chicks” and he definitely seemed like a player at first. However, he did treat the heroine with respect and he improved for me as the story progressed.
On the negative side, the story is so choppy and feels rushed. The way it goes through the years feels so incomplete and very jarring. The whole thing just read like an outline of an idea instead of a fully fleshed out story. I found it incredibly disappointing.
This is a safe read with no OW/OM drama and no cheating. There is explicit sex and language, so be warned if you don’t like that in books.
I received an ARC from Booksprout in exchange for my unbiased review.
One heck of an amazing read that is a non-stop bundle of suspense! The nail-biting storyline will keep you on edge with anticipation for making the perfect choice and a great HEA! Emotionally engrossing, witty, exciting and enjoyable! Lip-biting hot chemistry! An amazing bad boy must read that will have you rooting for Mr. Right to take a hike!

Pete has been away with the Marines for 16 years but he’s back home, briefly, and is out on his bike when he sees a gorgeous young woman sitting at a cafe by the side of the road when the youth with her, starts pulling her roughly. That’s enough to bring out the hero instincts in him and he comes to her rescue much to the youth’s anger. The stunning young woman, Emily, and he spend the day together and the chemistry between them is panty melting and they both admit they want each other very much but she’s not ready. Pete’s a good guy and would never force himself on any woman but he is really attracted and interested in her so they continue their ‘date’. Then like a true gent he takes her home and says goodbye. Now this is one of Flora Ferrari’s stories so it can’t end just there! With all that passion and simmering lust! Surely not. But to find out how these two love birds actually get together you need to read this book as it is quite different from all her others stories that I have read which is what makes it extra special. Great characters who were so easy to like and I did like the ending very much. Another great story by Flora but with a twist! I look forward to reading her next book.I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Definitely recommended.
This author is awesome. Here books are well written and I can’t wait to read the next one. He has been in the services for many years. He is hurt and home on leave for as long as it takes to heal. He meets a young woman while out running an errand. They hit it off and then find out her dad is his best friend. That doesn’t stop them though. It is emotional, suspenseful, fun, hot and so much more. I highly recommend it. I received a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.
Pete’s in the marines, his call name is Pistol. While on leave he helps Emily from being hit on by a jerk. He wants to get to know her better. While having dinner at his best friend’s house image his surprise when Emily turns out to be his friends daughter. Can they overcome all the obstacles and find happiness?
A very enjoyable and quick older man younger woman romance. It is a warm, sweet, inspiring story of love and commitment that withstood the tests of time, the military, and years apart. The characters are strong, has great depth, and amazingly hot chemistry. This book met all of my expectations and then some! A really enjoyable read!

I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this book we meet Emily Fulbright and Pete “Pistol”. Pistol is the love them and leave them kind of guy. He takes that same type of approach in the Marines get in get the job done and get out as quickly as possible. It is part of what has made him such and integral part of MARSOC . However something changes while riding on his bike in his hometown he see a girl that he just has to make his. Emily knows nothing about the guy who comes in and picks her up while she is studying outdoors. The more time she spends with him the more she wants. That is until she finds the snag in that idea, he is her dad’s (the one she just reconnected with) best friend. These two wonder can they have a HEA or will the distance, age gap, and her father make that impossible?
This is a great story. It does have its ups and downs I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin it for any other readers. I will say this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Flora Ferrari does it again it with with the dynamic of an older man and a younger woman. This was my first book by flora and I have to say I don’t think I’ll miss another one of her books her scenes were very descriptive and hot. It was relatively quick and easy read and I would recommend this to anyone who believes that love has no age limit.

Love letters…
I really liked this quick, older man/younger woman love story. There is an instant attraction between Pete and Emily but they don’t give in to that attractions straight away. Instead the two correspond via “love” letters while Pete is deployed. Will finding out that Emily is the daughter of his friend cause Pete to back off? Marines don’t retreat!

Emily and Pete are that one in a million couple – they meet, fall for each other, then discover the connections between them and their families in this small town.
While he serves, they get to know each other better long distance via real live old fashioned letters.
A sweet and stirring HEA that deals with issues for veterans and others with PTSD.

Pete was home in between military assignments overseas when he sees a man grab a young girl’s wrist hard. He gets off his bike and forces the guy to let her loose. Then they take off for a ride on his bike and end up in the mountains. They talk and make out some but Emily wasn’t ready to go any further. He drove her home and they exchanged info to write to each other. Then a few years down the road Pete is back home and meets up with a friend that tells him that he now has a daughter. His ex wife kept her from him and he only just learned about her. Pete was stunned for his friend but nothing compared to the shock he felt when his girl was introduced to him as his friend’s long lost daughter. He didn’t care who she was just what she was to him. Pete was going to claim Emily for his own but how would his friend react to knowing his feelings for her?
This is a steamy story about a older man finding love with a younger girl. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.
