Aidan Black left the Marine Corps to skip the red tape, but it's a woman from his past he's now trying to avoid... one who believes him capable of murder.

Briar Sutton is the last person I expect to see on my client's driveway that day. It's been months and we've successfully ignored and avoided one another. No one knows we have a past.

One where she believes I'm a murderer.

One where I thought she would be my wife.

Now my private paramilitary security crew are working the biggest kept secret in Hollywood ? a celebrity wedding ? and Briar is going to be there.

With her husband.

But I've seen the marks on her neck and hear the lies on her lips. Then I find out, not all is as it seems. We're not the only one's keeping secrets, and I didn't become a US f*cking Marine by standing back and letting the woman I once loved disappear all over again.

Briar Sutton just became my number one job.

And the person who harmed her, my number one enemy.

THE MARINE is a steamy private security romance with spice and tons of suspense and action. If you love former military and special ops alphas who fall for sassy heroines, then you'll love the Black Hawke Security series. Each book can be read as a standalone and has a happy ever after.
