Disobedient Hearts
Emily Sullivan enlisted in the Navy to escape a traumatic past, but you can never outrun the lasting impacts. Jake Holland is a Navy SEAL officer that has a habit of falling too quickly and too intensely. When he and Emily meet, in civilian clothes, during a night out they have a weird draw. They spend the next month trying to meet in the middle with Emily working to overcome her aversion to physical proximity and Jake trying to learn her boundaries and respect them. Once they discover their respective military status, and that it violates the Navy's fraternization policy it's already too late. They spend the next seven years building a life together that can't exist on paper or in public. Apparently, their third wheel, Bacon, an adorable gentle giant didn't get that memo.

“I read the book in two days. I LOVED it! It hooked me from the beginning, and I was mad whenever I had to put it down. The emotional depth of the characters was incredible, and the final coming-home scene was heart-wrenching. I was rooting for Emily and Jake throughout the entire story!”
