When wealthy heiress Alyssa Brooks learns her stepfather
has been paying her fiancé to marry her, she breaks off the
engagement. The ex-fiancé is not happy with her decision so
he proceeds to threaten Alyssa with revealing a secret she has
only shared with him.
Alyssa goes to the one person she knows can protect her,
former Marine Hunter Reece. Hunter is dealing with nightmares
from his past but will do whatever it takes to protect Alyssa.
They both are carrying guilt from the past and use their own
forms of therapy to deal with it.
EXPOSING THE HEIRESS is a delightful read and I was surprised with this
book because the imagery of photographs and
sculptures described were easily visible and came to
life when reading. Both of these individuals carry around
guilt and pain, and deal with it in their own personal fashion. Alyssa decides she
will not allow her scum bag ex-fiancee to
destroy her one cherished memory. And this slip of a girl
helps a tough former marine to realize he is worth loving.
There are two other books in the Once a Marine series
I have not had the pleasure of reading, but I was able to follow
EXPOSING THE HEIRESS with no problem. I love reading anything involving a
military man, and what's not to enjoy about a sexy Marine.
Jennifer Apodaca did such a wonderful story of portraying the personal and
vulnerable
side of a tough Marine and his means of dealing with the
aftermath of war, and the way the wealthy heiress used
photographs and videos to tell the story of how different
individuals dealt with various adversities.
EXPOSING THE HEIRESS is a wonderful read!
Ignite's new romance is about to really turn up the
heat...This Marine will protect her at all costs...
When wealthy heiress Alyssa Brooks finds out her
stepfather has been paying her fiancé to marry her, she's
humiliated and betrayed. She quickly breaks the
engagement, only to be blackmailed by her now ex-fiancé,
who
threatens both Alyssa and the son she gave up for
adoption. With nowhere to go, she turns to the one man
she can
trust.
Former Marine sniper Hunter Reece's lethal skills could
save Alyssa's life. But his little sister's best friend
has
turned into a woman, who is an irresistible mix of
secrets and sexiness. And while Hunter can trust himself
to
protect her, he can't trust himself to keep his
attraction hidden...or even pretend to be the man that
Alyssa
remembers.
Because the only way to keep the lovely heiress safe is
to become the one thing he knows she could never love...a
killer.
