Jake Hansen is born for the life of a Navy SEAL and
everything the program offers. Since joining the military
at the age of 15 with a troubled heart and nerves of steel,
he's been on a fast track to be the best and his name alone
is a legend. While on a dangerous mission in Africa, his
unit is directed to a location where a hostage, an American
woman, is left for dead. This type of work is what he's
trained for, but when his unit arrives to find the woman
tied up and beaten half to death, Jake is unable to control
his tender feelings, which leaves him shaken and confused.
So Jake concentrates on what he does best; protect, evade
and extract. Just when he thinks the mission and the woman
are in the back of his mind, everything becomes more
complicated when she shows up on his base as a civilian
worker.
Isabelle Markham is restless and edgy, regardless of the
fact she has everything most people only dream about; she's
tops in her field as a plastic surgeon and has a fiancé who
claims to love her. To escape the confines of her life,
Isabelle starts spending time in Africa with the Doctors
Without Borders program. She can finally be herself and
break free from her political mother and her stale
relationship; the exciting and exhilarating work is exactly
what she needs to regroup. Then she finds all of her gained
ground is lost when she's kidnapped for ransom, tied up,
beaten and left to die. Her only saving grace is the men
attempting to get her out of the country and her own will
to not allow her fear to control her future.
HARD TO HOLD is exciting, sexy and witty with an action-
packed, twisting plot. I laughed out loud, panted over the
brothers and didn't stop reading until the last page forced
me to do so. A great first book in the new Hard to Hold
Brother series.
THE SPECIAL OPS HERO FEARED NOTHING—UNTIL HE MET A WOMAN
TOO HOT TO HOLD...
Lieutenant Jake Hansen has survived some of the riskiest
missions known to man. But now the wounded Navy SEAL faces
his toughest job yet: smuggling Dr. Isabelle Markham out
of Africa without triggering an international incident.
Not easy to do when the gorgeous hostage happens to be a
senator’s daughter—and about as easy to resist as an oasis
in the desert.
If it weren’t for Jake, Isabelle would still be halfway
across the world, where rebel forces left her for dead.
The special ops warrior may have saved her life, but she
doesn’t need him to protect her now. Tell that to the
ruggedly handsome hunk in full battle fatigues who’s just
been assigned as Isabelle’s personal bodyguard. Close
quarters aside, Isabelle won’t let Jake anywhere near her
heart—until danger throws them together again. And nothing
in the jungles of wildest Africa could prepare them for a
passion this wild. This crazy. This hot…
