Navy Brat Proud and True...

Hi all welcome to my blog hop stop for the 

Musa Memorial Day Hop.

Yes I am a proud daughter of a Navy man. My dad is and will always be my hero. I, to this day, remember saying goodbye to him for his deployments on the Southpac tours. 9 month deployments to Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong where he lived on a big aircraft carrier and we, his family, awaited for him anxiously stateside. And yes he was on this <------ big boat pictured here the CV-64 USS Constellation or the Connie for short.

When you are young 9 months is an eternity. Okay it still is an eternity even as an adult. But he missed on birthdays, games, school plays. All in service to his country and to keep us safe. Did I miss him...hell yeah. Would I have him give up serving his country to be with us? Not in a million years.

So Dad I don't think I say it enough THANK YOU and I love you.

I raise my glass of MEAN TEA to you and to both my grandfathers who bravely served in WW2.

Now I am embarrassed to say I have yet to write a book with a navy hero. Seems like that would have been  one of my first choices for heros right?  WRONG growing up I spent too much time hearing my Master Chief father lament how Hollywood got it wrong from protocol to where the ribbons should be on a uniform to be honest I am scared stiff to write anything and have it get back to him that I got it wrong...Serious SCARED TO DEATH.

Yes you may call me a chicken the name fits so I keep it safe with my Alpha Men when I can....yeah right.

Meet Tony anything by safe....

TONY'S HAVEN

Sometimes Love comes in a package we least expect to find it in.

Tony Sherman may be a modern day Adonis and a well-known ladies' man, but hiding beneath his carefree, playboy persona is a man who knows how to be discreet. He keeps his desire to protect all those he loves from being seen by anyone, particularly his family. Fate intervenes when he uses his charm to beg a favor from a co-worker, a women as unaffected by his charisma as she is by his looks.

Haven Pelletier is anything but the kind of woman usually found on Tony's arm or in his bed. She's mousy and rubenesque, unmoved by his Adonis appearance. But when circumstances bring them together, she sees right through his tarnished armor—to the true man underneath.

As Haven learns more about Tony, she discovers a man who might just steal her heart if she lets him. Can Tony be the knight in shining armor Haven needs? Or will the secrets in his past keep them both from finding happiness?

I am thrilled to announce that book three in the Sherman Series KILLING LUCAS has a release date of October 19th 2012.  And yes Tony and all the Sherman group will come out and play.
