Book excerpt: Books 4-6 in the ASSIGNMENT: Caribbean Nights series--all three full length novels in one set! Contains: Protecting Her SEAL Marrying Her SEAL Keeping Her SEAL Protecting Her SEAL Former Navy SEAL Miles Lynch came home from Iraq with the nickname “Mild.” His dirty little secret? It’s easy to stay calm when you don’t care about anything. He learned the hard way that happy endings don’t exist—fighting for the cause only got him broken and disillusioned. Explosives expert Lale Şakir knows a thing or two about chemistry, but only on paper. When it comes to men? Total novice. But when she agrees to create an artificial coral reef for Aqueous Adventures as an excursion site near the Caribbean island Miles calls home, will the unexpected heat between them cause too many complications… or melt the polar ice cap around his heart? Marrying Her SEAL Navy SEAL Jaxon Hyland can fix anything—except the inconvenient attraction he's always had for his gorgeous best friend. It was easy to maintain a hands-off policy when he was deployed half a world away, but when Thora pops up on Duchess Island, the Caribbean paradise Jack calls home, everything changes. Emotionally bruised by a bad breakup, Thora needs Jack now more than ever. Jack has never been able to tell her no, not even when she asks him to marry her. It's supposed to be temporary. 100% fake. Platonic. But how long can that really last when she's the only woman he's ever wanted? Keeping Her SEAL Jace Custer followed his former SEAL team to the Caribbean in hopes of answering the question: What’s next? But he doesn’t fit in at Duchess Island like he did in Iraq. While searching for a place to call his own, Jace unexpectedly finds a home tending bar for Stella Chase, but when the chemistry between them heats up, he realizes he wants more from her than just a job. Stella can’t trust her bartender with her heart—he’s too young, too hot, and too much of a player. Jace is determined to strip away her preconceptions of him… but she’s just as determined to hold him at arm’s length. Can a recovering player ever really change his stripes? Or is he destined to never fit into his own life?
