Trapped: A Small-Town Military Protector Romance

by Maite Maxwell

He’s sworn to protect those who can’t protect themselves.Does that include criminals?Alexis

I’ve been framed. Yeah, try telling that to the cops waiting at my house and store to arrest me. Thanks, Uncle Harvey. Now I understand why you put all those properties in my name.

I need time to think my way out of this one. But I can’t go home, I can’t go to work, and where the hell am I going to hide myself in this tiny-ass town?

Wait.

Didn’t Emily start a boat B&B? I think she did.

Now I just need us to push off from the dock before the cops can catch up to me.

David

I’ve been busting my butt 24/7 on the counterterrorism unit. Between that and the investigation, my brain feels like it’s in a pressure cooker.

Time to escape to East Greenwich and help out on the boat. I need the solitude.

When a beautiful woman in a hurry shows up, I’m confused. I thought I was supposed to be doing maintenance, not shuttling tourists around. But she’s insistent, and who am I to turn away a paying customer?

As the week flies by, I can’t deny what my heart is telling me.

She’s the love of my life, my one true love, the reason I was put on this earth.

Though I have to ask why is she so reluctant to return to shore?
