She’s caught off guard by his good looks, muscular build, and natural charm, but with no way to pay, he'll have to work for his room & board. When billionaire businessman Mike Collins set out to buy a piece of paradise, he never dreamed a storm would leave him shipwrecked on the tiny island. With no money and no way of communicating with the outside world, he’s at the mercy of the hotel’s owner—a beautiful, petite blonde with a stubborn streak a mile wide. He’s not afraid of working hard to put the hotel back together, but as their passion ignites, he worries what will happen if he reveals the truth about why he came. Karen’s decided never to risk falling in love again, but as the days pass, the walls around her heart may be starting to crumble. With Mike’s secret agenda between them, is their connection strong enough to weather the storm? 

With the clock ticking, Navy SEAL Gage Jackelson must uncover the truth about his fallen teammate before he and his brothers-in-arms take the blame. When his intel leads him to a publishing company, he never dreamed he’d end up as a romance cover model. He’ll do whatever it takes to get closer to the information he needs, but when he meets Anna—the photographer with the striking eyes and sultry voice—it may prove to be his toughest mission yet. Photographer Anna Middleton has shot her share of male models, but none that are real-life SEALs. She’s not sure why the tall, muscular military man would want to pose as a romance hero, but she doesn’t have much time to wonder before her boss disappears under suspicious circumstances. Soon she’s thrust into the middle of a situation that could mean life or death. When Gage realizes how much trouble Anna is in, he’ll do what he can to shield her from the danger that always follows him. But with the scars from her past that she keeps hidden, can Anna ever trust him if she learns their meeting was based on a lie? **
