RAFFLECOPTER HTML a Rafflecopter giveaway RAFFLECOPTER HTML The scorching sequel to Guard Dog A Hot SEALs/Stone Hard SEALs Crossover Novella It’s insane to want him, this beautiful, strong, sexy man. Not just because her hot bodyguard is tasked with herding her safely through the exotic night markets of Hong Kong. And not just because she’s his boss. But because they are worlds apart. What they have can only be a fling. It can’t last forever. But Garrett has other ideas. It was a relief to get Catherine into another cab and head back to their hotel, but Garrett knew better than to relax. At least until they reached sanctuary. And even then, he would stay on alert. This event had changed things, shifted them away from a standard protection op onto the offensive. “I’ll stay with you tonight.” God, it was hard keeping his tone casual. Her head whipped around and she gaped at him. “What?” “You cannot be alone.” Her horrified expression gutted him. He...

He is strong (as all Shermans are) but not the same as the others, Tony is strong in his need to protect, Lucas in his need to fight for those he loves, Trent in his need to save, so that leaves Spencer the one who is strong in holding it all together.
