Jake's Heroes

The blast that killed my best friend, Jake, also ended my career as a Navy SEAL. I'm left unable to speak and lusting after my speech therapist, who also happens to be Jake's little sister. Grief is hard on Avery, and I'm here for her. However, she needs me. If it's release she needs, that's what I'll give her. As long as she doesn't ask me to stay. It's the one thing this orphan doesn't know how to do. And Avery deserves better than a scarred veteran who can't speak. Besides, if Avery knew the classified information from our final mission, she wouldn't want anything to do with me.

I'm a Navy SEAL sniper, a trained killer. When the boy turns up, the son of my late brother, I'm the last person who should be looking after him. But I'm the only one who can. I've got three weeks to turn my bachelor pad into a home fit for a six-year-old. Alana, the cute caseworker, doesn't think I'm up to the job. I've got to prove to her and my new charge that I'm dad material.

She's the daughter of a billionaire; he's the ex-Navy SEAL her father hires to silently track her. But falling for a tech heiress was never part of his mission. I've survived war zones, black-ops missions, and the loss of team members. Now my orders are simple: follow Allegra Simpson on her...
