About this ebook

“Sexy and smart, with two compelling and appealing principal characters, Tight Quarters is a magnificent return to form for Ms. Albert.” —All About Romance

Petty Officer Bacon, a navy SEAL and ace sharpshooter, has been on the front lines of more than his fair share of dangerous ops. Yet when a minor injury relegates him to the beta team, he’s tasked with what may be his riskiest assignment yet: the silver fox journalist he’s babysitting is the hottest, most charismatic man he’s ever encountered.

Award-winning journalist Spencer Bryant may have been named one of Pride magazine’s most eligible bachelors of the year, but he’s not looking to change his relationship status. He’s a consummate professional who won’t risk his ethics or impeccable reputation by getting involved with a source. Even a sexy-as-hell military man. But while Spencer can resist his physical attraction to Bacon, he has less control over his emotions—especially when the mission goes sideways and the two men are trapped alone.

Getting out of the jungle alive turns out to be easy compared to facing the truth about their feelings for one another back in the real world. And whether or not they can build a future is a different story altogether.

Ratings and reviews

Gutted me in the best way; I loved it! It just boggles my mind how Annabeth Albert keeps coming up with such wonderful, heart-wrenching stories for this series. She talks openly about struggling sometimes as a writer and I'm here to say that Annabeth, your struggles are worth it for what you give to your readers. I don't mean that I like that she must struggle, I just want to let her know that her efforts are sincerely appreciated by this fan and I'm sure her other fans would agree. Tight Quarters is the sixth book in the Out of Uniform series but it stands alone just fine. I can't recommend the other books in this series highly enough though, so if you like Tight Quarters I know you will enjoy the other ones as well. I'm not a good person for remembering details from one book in a series to the next. That doesn't mean that I don't love them, just that I read so many books that it's hard for me to keep story details straight from one book to the next. I think other readers have been waiting for Bacon's story while I'm just waiting for the next any story from Annabeth and boy did she deliver with this one. There's an age gap between Bacon and Spencer but it's not focused on much throughout the book. What is focused on is being part of a team and still needing to connect with a soulmate. What starts out as a dreaded "babysitting" job for Bacon later turns into so much more between him and Spencer. The blurb is good but it doesn't really begin to convey the depth of feeling that grows gradually between these two men. Yes, they have hot as fire sex with each other but eventually it becomes even more, though neither one seems ready to admit it. They have a huge conflict, which seems insurmountable, but love will eventually win out and they get a very satisfying HFN (happy for now). I really want/need to read more about Bacon and Spencer; I hope we hear from them again in later books in this series. I know that all series must come to an end at some point but I really want this one to continue for many more books. Thank you, Annabeth, for making the tears (both happy and sad) flow once again. I love it when you do that to me. 😊 A review copy was provided by the publisher via NetGalley but this did not influence my opinion or rating of the book. ***Reviewed for Xtreme-Delusions dot com***

Tight Quarters is the 6th book in the Out of Uniform series. Each book in the series stand alone so it's not necessary to read the previous books to enjoy this one. This is a very well done M/M romance and I loved Bacon and Spencer together. When Bacon is first tasked with babysitting the reporter that is being embedded in the SEAL teams he's not very happy. One look at Spencer Bryant and Bacon knows he's in all kinds of trouble if he doesn't get his raging libido under control. After spending some time with Spencer, Bacon knows it's too late. He's a goner. Great read that everyone who enjoys M/M romances will enjoy. I recommend it.

Bacon and Spencer made me squeal, tos and turning, jumping on my bed before i could turn the next page!!😆💖
