Book excerpt: Can A Woman's Fire Melt A Navy SEAL's Icy Heart? Navy SEAL Thaddeus Jonsson is the strong, silent type. He's assigned to guard Jana, a fiercely independent and outspoken woman with a secret worth a lot of money. And she's not pleased that her overprotective grandmother hired protection for her. Even if he is the image of a Viking, all six feet three of him. She fights against his intrusion into her life. Thaddeus was trained to be alone, and after years of deployment can't envision losing his heart to a woman. He's clear on one thing: he's not marriage material. But Jana affects him as no woman has. He's bound to protect her, but will he stay when the danger is over? Deadly Peril (Stealth Security Book 5) is a military romance with no cliffhanger.
