Lethal Secrets by Jenna Gunn

Eli’s first mission after the SEALs is FUBAR.
Gather intel? That’s a negative.
Save a woman and claim her as his to protect? Roger that.

Mia Bailey
Women like me don’t get fairytale endings.
We get abusive brothers.
Liars and cheating.
We get scars.
Damage so deep it will never be shaken.
Until a gigantic battle-hardened SEAL decides to prove otherwise.
Vows to avenge me.
Puts his life on the line.
And shows me what it’s like to feel safe for the first time.
But big badass Eli Fortier is too good to be true.
Only now I know that running from Eli won’t just end with me in the grave my brother’s have already dug…
Leaving him will cut the heart out of me once and for all.
Ironic because I didn’t know I had one left…
Until Eli picked up my broken pieces.

Former SEAL Eli Fortier
I’ve always been a walking talking compass for trouble. And my aim was true when I walked into a bar and laid eyes on Mia Bailey.
She wasn’t part of the job. The skittish brunette should have been off limits for so many reasons. Only the moment she looked up at me with fear in her pretty green eyes she was my mission.
To protect.
To claim.
To heal.
Because two broken souls make one.
But danger gets far too close and I might lose my chance at forever with the the woman that taught me how to feel alive again.
