Under Fire (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781839437953)

What happens when you buy the girlfriend experience for one week?

Warren Cameron doesn't stop. A Navy SEAL leading chief, he works damn hard and expects the same of his men. Yet, his hardcore mentality has got him losing touch with his troops, sinking morale. That can't fly, but he can't seem to fix it.

An opportunity falls across his lap-his cleaning lady, Alisa Kelly. She's new, she's game and he doesn't fail to notice her long, tanned legs as she reaches to dust. A heated struggle opens the door to a mutually pleasing deal. For one week, he'll pay her to give him the girlfriend experience, help him attend some work parties that he'd otherwise hate and be a more personable boss. Everyone wins.

Somewhere in there, Warren finds himself enjoying the company of the mysterious Alisa a little too much to be safe. What's supposed to be a sexy pre-deployment fling becomes something else entirely. She's the type of enigma he can't resist, even knowing that they've got an expiration date.

Electric chemistry drives Alisa to do the unthinkable-fall into what she ought to run from. But Warren's strong, dominating presence makes her feel something she hasn't in a long time, not with her head stuck in a textbook, studying for med school final exams. Warren makes her feel protected, adored. With her controlling, jerk fiancé on the opposite coast for a spell, she lets down her hair to live a little, sinking into the short, secretive affair.

What he doesn't know...can't hurt her.
