SUMMARY:

Some secrets have a way of coming back and haunting us, no matter how much we try to bury them.

Chelsea
Coming back home was supposed to be normal. Not that my life had ever been normal, but it was getting there. Then I opened the door and found a man -- broken, bloodied, and fighting for his life. I don't know why, but I said I would take care of him. I had to. Needed to. He was a mystery, showing up from out of nowhere. But he might have already stolen my heart.

Mayson Carey
The only thing I have ever wanted in my entire life was to forget who I was. Joining the military helped me do this. Keep your head down and glide through life was my new motto. No strings, no relationships. Nothing. Everything was working until a knock at the door had me face-to-face with the reason I was running. So I ran -- I fell into her arms, and she fell into my heart, but I know better than to think it'll last. Some secrets have a way of coming back and haunting us, no matter how much we try to bury them.

Hard to Lose by K. Bromberg (Play Hard #4)

 

💜💜💜💜💜

I wasn't able to put this book down! Hard to Lose is by far my favorite in the Play Hard series and this one was a home run in my book.

Chase Kincade is drowning in her work and the perfect excuse for an escape comes in the form of an old letter that she can't get out of her head.

Determined to track down Ryan Camden and find out what happened to him, she's not completely honest with the bar owner she starts to grow close to...

Gunner will have your heart from the first time you meet him, especially the more you learn about his past. The entire time I was waiting for the truth to come out, but the longer it took, the more worried I got that things were passed being reconciled.

Every moment of this journey was worth the heartache and tears shed. Watching Chase and Gunner each grow in their own way, while fighting for what truly makes them happy, is what every reader only dreams about. Definitely a book you don't want to miss out on!

💋 Romance

SUMMARY:

I know finding and signing a military vet to the agency is a long shot -- but it'll be good press just letting him try out. That's what I tell my family, rather than admit I can't get the letter he wrote us five years ago out of my head.

But what I tell the bartender in his hometown is a lie. I know veterans protect each other. So I pretend to be a graduate student.

Sparks. Flame. Fire. I accidentally got in too deep.

I didn't expect to develop feelings for Gunner Camden.

And there's no way I can admit to my lies now, not without destroying what we share. So I'll keep faking it.

***

There are two versions of me: before and after deployment.

Back then I was a screwup kid. I'd lie, cheat, and steal my way out of everything. My only love was baseball.

After I started fighting, I found out there had been another path for me. One that involved my dream. But by then I had seen too much.

The old me was dead, so I put my dreams to rest, too.

Then Chase Kincade walks into my bar and reminds me that life is meant to live. No regrets.

Fresh. Happy. Hopeful. I can start to see a new dream, with her.

But sometimes things are too good to be true...and dishonesty is the one thing I can't forgive.
