U.S. Navy SEAL Dante Raske is all about guarding his heart and serving his country, but now that he’s busted his knee on a mission, he needs something to keep his mind busy. Playing bodyguard for a sexy little country starlet until he’s cleared for duty? Just what the doctor ordered.
Chrissie Tate refuses to be a one-hit wonder. If she’s going to take care of her family, she can’t let herself get distracted—especially not by the hot as hell Navy SEAL hired to be her bodyguard. But when a crazed fan attacks, she changes her tune. She’ll keep Dante around…if he agrees to teach her self-defense.
Except their close-contact lessons quickly become steamy bedroom sessions. And it’s up to this Navy SEAL to save Chrissie’s career—and his heart—before their explosive passion consumes them both…
Each book in the Sin City SEALS series is a standalone, full-length story that can be enjoyed out of order.

MY REVIEW:
Although they were poor they
were close and the loved each other very much.
Chrissie Tate had to grow up much faster than expected because her
friend and brother Joe who had joined the Navy had been killed while in
service.
She left the security of stable to the
world of unstable the day the men in uniforms showed up at their trailer to
deliver the death notice to her parents.
She went from helping her parents around the house with her
siblings. To helping her parents and
siblings out by being a cashier to a country singer with a mega hit, about the
Navy giving her parents her brother’s death notice and a “Thank You for his
service to his country” song.
Really though it was just words she had
written in order for her to cope with Joe’s death. She missed him and she was afraid for her
family because her parents had shut down and she needed to be more than “a one
hit wonder.” The kids, no, the family
needed her. She couldn’t let them down.
So when she is practicing for her music
video at red rock in Vegas with a male backup singer and he becomes over sexed
and pressures her and she screams, she has a Navy SEAL to the rescue. Dante Raske was there with Ronan is friend
but also he out ranked Dante. You see
Dante had just had surgery for a torn ACL that he had gotten on a mission that
had gone south. It had already been
three months and the doctor said it would be another two weeks before he even
considered letting him be cleared for active duty. He was not happy. In fact, he was pissed and depressed you
could say. But Ronan had him hooked up
to help babysit this country singer while she was on tour. He wasn’t that happy about it but it was
better than sitting home.
You see Ronan’s girlfriend is a backup
singer for Chrissie Fate. Her manager
talked with him saying he could use some SEALS as protection for Chrissie for
she has been getting threats. So far
Ronan looks at it as killing two birds with one stone. You know seeing his girlfriend and guarding
Chrissie. Dante really thinks it’s a
lame job but the alternative of going home to California and having his mom
coming back out to pamper him again is just awful. So they were out at Red Rock getting
exercise. When he sees a sexy as all get
out woman in funky ugly wig, black at that.
But her body is just screaming fine.
He turns away when he hears a fearful scream.
Although in great pain to his knee he assesses
the situation as he is running to her aide, he gets the man away from her with
a few punches thrown. She explains with
a few less words that he could explain away other than fear that they were
practicing for a video and the guy got carried away. She said they were both backup singers for a
male country singer.
The next day when he and Ronan report to
duty he and she find out the know each other.
She’s more than he ever thought.
Already she is more like his ex-wife, a liar. Or is she?
She has a career to protect and a family to support not to mention a
mother who had become a prima donna. She
just wants something or someone just for her.
Is Dante it? Are they each the
balm needed to heal each other’s hearts or just a sex toy to pass time with
until he is deployed again?
I enjoyed the banter and the dress-up that
Chrissie used to do her role play. I
found it interesting how it empowered her so she found her voice with Dante
especially. Which in turn she found it
more comfortable than just being herself.
Interesting how many of us do that with our regular clothing and
makeup? HMM? I enjoyed how Dante wanted to be this total
bad ass Alpha Male but he had such a big heart you saw how he wore it on his
sleeve. The first time for sure with her
little sister, Melissa. I give this 4
stars. Provided by netgalley.com. Follow us at: www.1rad-readerreviews.com.
