BLURB
Doctor
Comfort Djan is looking for salvation after a tragic accident, which takes
her to deprived regions where her skills heal the helpless. Until Fate
thrusts her as a medic on board a West African military coastal protection
ship. Proving herself to the male-only crew is nothing compared to being near
one intense naval officer who has her feeling something other
than her survivor's guilt.
Commander
Akin Solarin wants nothing more than to do his job, especially when his medic's
temporary replacement turns out to be a disconcerting woman who
pushes all his buttons. He runs a tight ship, and doesn't need captivating
and efficient yet aloof Comfort around to keep his heart-rate in
semi-permanent overdrive.
Neither
can deny the attraction between them, but navigating uncharted personal waters
may be the least of their problems when confronted with bold pirate attacks and
other vicious unknown dangers onboard the frigate. And when Comfort's life gets
on the line, Akin knows he will do anything to save his medic and heal her
battered heart in the process.
EXCERPT
Loosening
his hold, he pulled himself back to hook a finger under her chin so she could
look him in the eyes. She needed to see the truth of his words.
“No,
Comfort. You’re strong. You always have been and I don’t doubt you always will
be. Your ex was the weak one for expecting you to heal from the heartbreak of a
lifetime without changing. For not being able to remember that everything
passes. Everything. And not sticking by you until it did.”
Warm
air fanned his cheek when she expelled a shuddering breath. “He had every
right. Hell, I’m surprised he stayed as long as he did. We hadn’t been getting
along for the year prior. We were both overworked and...”
“What?”
He prodded with a small shake of her shoulder.
“I
had been putting off having a baby for a while.” She lowered her gaze. “I
wasn’t ready to lose the foothold I’d gotten on my career. If we’d had a child
he would’ve proceeded while I’d been held back. I wasn’t ready to make the
sacrifice.” She focused on him again. “I guess that makes me selfish.”
Akin
smiled. “Only as selfish as anyone else, male or female, who wants to make a
career for themselves. It’s just that women are expected to fall back when they
have a child while men continue forward.”
Her
brows bunched together. “If I didn’t know better I’d think you were a
feminist.”
Free
from witnesses, he released the laughter. How did she have the uncanny ability
to set him free? “What makes you think I’m not?”
She
raised a finger into the air, “You’re mean to women.”
“I’m
mean to everyone.”
“True.”
A second digit flung up. ”You don’t want female sailors on your ship.”
He
grabbed her hand and laced their fingers together. How could such a small thing
fit so perfectly into his?
“It’s
not my rule. We’re on a pirate-seeking ship where the risk of being attacked is
high. Pirates have no honor. I’d hate to think what would happen to a woman if
she were ever captured during a siege.”
An
icy chill stole down his spine at the thought of it ever happening with Comfort
on board.
