Romance
Book Synopsis: Petty Officer Bacon, a
navy SEAL and ace sharpshooter, has been on the front lines of more than his
fair share of dangerous ops. Yet when a minor injury relegates him to the beta
team, he’s tasked with what may be his riskiest assignment yet: the silver fox
journalist he’s babysitting is the hottest, most charismatic man he’s ever
encountered.
Award-winning journalist Spencer Bryant may have been named
one of Pride magazine’s most eligible bachelors of the year, but he’s not
looking to change his relationship status. He’s a consummate professional who
won’t risk his ethics or impeccable reputation by getting involved with a
source. Even a sexy-as-hell military man. But while Spencer can resist his
physical attraction to Bacon, he has less control over his emotions—especially
when the mission goes sideways and the two men are trapped alone.
Getting out of the jungle alive turns out to be easy
compared to facing the truth about their feelings for one another back in the
real world. And whether or not they can build a future is a different story
altogether.

Excerpt
“Came because I didn’t have anywhere else I’d rather be.”
Bacon’s voice lowered, became more mournful. “And trust me, I’m every bit as
pissed about that too. Fuck you for getting under my skin. Everything on base
is too damn quiet right now. And I’m too…itchy. You make me itchy, Spencer, and
I hate it.”
“I’m—”
“Don’t you dare say sorry.”
Bacon’s mouth was millimeters from Spencer’s when he paused. Held. Gave him a
chance to escape, but even though it was the height of stupidity, Spencer
wasn’t going anywhere.
“I hate it too,” he whispered, right against Bacon’s
mouth a split second before Bacon claimed his mouth in a punishing kiss.
Spencer was used to being the aggressor with kissing. It was just how he was
wired—he’d always been the one to take the lead in bed. But Bacon left no space
for him to take over. In fact, all he could do was cling to Bacon and hope they
didn’t burn the damn hotel down with the force of their passion.
It was like they’d been longing for this for years, not
days, and like they were both longtime lovers reuniting and mortal enemies
enraged at their attraction. Bacon kissed like he operated in the field—with
deadly intent and utter precision as he systematically took Spencer apart, lick
by lick, nip by nip, breath by breath. But really, who needed air with kisses
like these? Bacon kept up the aggressive assault, body pushing him against the
wall, mouth ensuring his compliance.
Finally, Bacon proved himself mortal after all and
pulled away to gasp for air. “Fuck.”
“Still mad?” Why Spencer was goading him, he really
couldn’t say, other than he wanted more of this wild, unleashed,
more-than-a-little unhinged man.
“Very.” Bacon bit at Spencer’s ear, which made him
shiver like a teenager in a backseat for the first time. God, he was putty for
this man, absolute wet clay for him to mold and use. “So damn pissed.”
But he belied his words by sinking to his knees, as
graceful as any dancer Spencer had worked with. He went straight for Spencer’s
waistband.
“Wait.” Spencer had to regain a little control here,
assert himself, not simply get caught up in the Bacon express train of lust and
anger. “Still don’t know your name.”
REVIEW
by Staci:
At first I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to like this book, but really how could you not love Bacon. For me it seemed as if the book started off relatively slow.
We met Bacon ( and finally learn his real name, and as much as I would like to reveal it, you should just read the book lol) and he's not a happy camper about having to babysit journalist Bryant Spencer.
Not sure if it's because of Spencer's job or because of how attracted he is towards him. But as the story continues and they give into the attraction towards one another, these two have major chemistry both in the bedroom and out.
Although Spencer gets on my bad side, he definitely redeems himself.
I absolutely love this series and am excited for the next book.
