About this eBook

Logan Knight’s last mission as a Marine left him with more than one kind of scar and a dream of helping other veterans dealing with the same pain. He has the money. He has a plan. Now, he just needs his portion of the family’s property. But, years ago, his father made him sign an agreement that the land is only his if he’s married by 30. With just a few months until his birthday, Logan needs a temporary wife.

Becky Holmes and her baby are barely scraping by, on the run from her ex. She’ll do whatever it takes to protect her child. When the wealthy, sexy, emotional haunted Logan, offers a solution, it seems like it just may be her only option. It doesn’t hurt that he’s kind and makes her feel wanted in a way she never has.

As they spend more days—and nights—together, Logan wants to make their relationship real. But his attempt to have it all backfires into a betrayal that forces Becky into a heart-wrenching choice no woman should ever have to make.

Ratings and reviews

Sexy and hot, Logan is a former marine and perfect hero. Logan needs to be married to receive his land as inheritance. Becky is a single mom who is fighting for her daughter's safety from an abusive ex who thinks he's above the law. When Becky and Logan enter into an unusual arrangement to meet each of their needs. Together they work towards their goals, but along the way, they each begin to feel more for each other. I loved this book! I can't believe I've never heard of this author before this, but I'm going to read all of her prior books and add her to my must read authors' list. If you enjoy the genre, you will love this book. Put it at the top of your TBR list.

4.5 Stars This is book 2 in the Once a Marine series and it features Logan and Becky. I really liked how this author didn’t sugar coat Logan’s PTSD issues. They were what they were and he was slowly dealing with them. What is better than seeing how fiercely a woman protects her baby girl! Becky is vulnerable but tough at the same time. The steam factor was off-the-charts HOT! Logan and Becky were a sizzling match made in heaven, that just needed a little bit of work to get there. It was all the outside forces they had to fight just to survive. I love this story and all its characters so much, that I wish I could have stayed in their world just a little while longer.

I enjoyed the way Becky was the perfect person to really pull him out of his PTSD she was so understanding and compassionate which in turn helped him to fall in love with her
