It’s Christmas time at Crescent Hall, but don’t expect peace, harmony and goodwill among men. When Mason Hall and his wife, Regan, invite their friends to stay for the holidays, sparks fly in an epic battle of the sexes, military style!
Navy SEAL Dan Hemmins goes head to head with soldier Sarah Metlin to prove once and for all that woman can’t possibly qualify for an elite branch of the military, but when Sarah proves she’s not just one of the most qualified warriors he’s ever met, she’s also one of the smartest and sexiest, too, he’ll do whatever it takes to get close to her, even if he has to challenge her to another contest…or three…or five!
MY REVIEW:
How do
you live up to a legend? Especially when you created it in your own mind? You can’t!
Is how. You see all Sarah Metlin
ever wanted was to be truly loved, accepted, and respected as a daughter,
sister, woman, and soldier. Not just as
any soldier but a soldier of a Special Forces unit.
When you grow
up in a home with a father and brothers in Special Forces it’s hard
enough. Try being the only girl and one
who joins the U.S. Army to boot. Not
good! Or should I say not good enough? Because that is exactly what every man close
to her thought and told her at every turn.
Not just them the U.S. Special Forces said she wasn’t accepted either.
Making contact
with an old childhood friend from Wisconsin, was the vacation she so
needed. Regan and her husband Mason
Hall, ex-Navy SEAL, asked her to visit during the Christmas holidays. She agreed because she wanted to kick around
with them leaving the Army, moving, transitioning into something new was going
to take some time. She needed to get her
head on straight.
Mason had also
invited his friend another Navy SEAL Dan Hemmins to come and stay. His options were limited since his folks had
fallen through, their home sold so they were in the process of moving. Dan had just retired and had only been home a
week. He also was there to kick some
ideas around. The ideas he has are for a
new business. He had also heard tell
about the famous Hall obstacle course, wanted to see if it was a thing that
could prove benefitual for his new venture.
The minute he
sets eyes on Sarah he is enamored. As
well for Sarah except she holds back because she is always being challenged and
belittled by men as well as used. So,
stand offish is an understatement. Could
this couple find a middle ground in order to become business partners at the
very least? Come read this very short
story. Enjoy the banter and the hot
scenes that gives you a reason to fan yourself.
I give this
short story 5 stars. Provided by Net
