It can be surprising when someone stands up for you.
I kind of loved this story. It was entertaining and enjoyable with a Daddy/little dynamic between the two main characters. The characters were interesting and likable. Blake and Jade interacted as though they were brother and sister which was funny as heck. Cole was a Navy Seal that was home after an injury. While he was out, a man approached him about his injury and then gave him a hard time. Jade was there and heard the man bullying Cole. She promptly took care of the bully for Cole. He was immediately interested in Jade and wanted to get to know her better but she had other ideas. Jade was very independent and worked hard to take care of herself. She was sweet but sassy and very protective of anyone that was being bullied. Cole’s desire to take care of Jade was hard for her to understand but he kept at it until she believed him. I loved the banter and interactions between Jade and Cole’s team. The way that the story ended was great, but I would have liked an epilogue further out because I’m greedy like that. I recommend reading this book.
