A SEAL's Purpose

The SEALs of Chance Creek #5

by Cora Seton

When Kai Green joined nine other Navy SEALs to build a sustainable community in Chance Creek, Montana, he never dreamed the day would come when he’d have to marry a woman sight unseen—or lose everything. Now he has to find a way to build a life with a perfect stranger—one who seems perfectly unqualified for happiness at Base Camp—or with him.

Addison Reynolds dreams of living in New York City, so when her fashion model sister offers her a year rent-free in her Manhattan penthouse apartment, she’s ready to say yes. But there’s a catch: Felicity is determined to make Addison lighten up a little, so if she wants to move to NYC, she’ll have to say yes to everything for one full month—including becoming Kai’s fiancée.

Can two people find true love—and their true selves—at the same time?

[Erin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Highly addictive, the fifth installment of the SEALs of Chance Creek is all about chef extraordinaire and Navy SEAL, Kai Green and city slicker Addison Reynolds. Sizzling romance, great characterization, witty dialogue, and just enough drama to keep it interesting. I thought it was interesting to see that Kai actually had a future plan of what would happen once the reality show was over and I love that Addison was 100% behind him. I enjoyed both their back stories- Kai is adopted and his family both biological and adopted are skeptical of his dreams, Addison covets her supermodel sister's things and has constant feelings of not measuring up to her beauty pageant mother's expectations. It just made them excellent characters to root for.

Looking forward to Curtis ' story later this year!

[Anita · Rating 4 out of 5]

I am really, really enjoying this series about a group of Navy SEALs who have come to Chance Creek, Montana to build a sustainable community. I have come to believe that Cora Seton may be onto something with this series about living in a sustainable way being the answer to a lot of the world's problems. Along with her message, she writes a wonderful romance and I really liked Kai and Addison.


Kai Green is a retired SEAL who has come to Chance Creek, Montana to prove to the world that he and his buddies can build and live a sustainable lifestyle. Kai is the cook for the group and he is looking to expand his philosophy of farm to table living to a wider audience with his own show and cookbook. But first, in order to keep Base Camp going, he needs to find a bride. He doesn't want to marry a perfect stranger, but it seems it may come down to that. Since his taste in women hasn't been the pest in the past, he has decided to leave his choice up to fate.

Addison Reynolds is a sensible woman. She knows her limitations and lived within them, unlike her glamorous, supermodel sister who lives in New York. When Addison has the chance to live in her sister's penthouse for a year and pursue her dream of being an event planner, she jumps at the chance. One catch: She has to say yes to everything for a month and one of those things is becoming Kai's fiancee. Since Addison believes the whole realty show is scripted and not real, she is onboard for the chance to live her dream in NYC. What she finds at Base Camp is very real and so are the feelings she develops for Kai.

[Monica · Rating 5 out of 5]

Cora Seton's SEALs of Chance Creek series is so interesting, both in the concept the author carries over through each book but also with the intriguing drama contained in each.

Addison Reynolds wants the life her sister Felicity has. As a super model with a handsome husband and a Manhattan penthouse Addison believes Felicity has it all. But Felicity is determined to prove Addison needs a reality check and leave her safe life behind so she offers her sister the ultimate gift, her Penthouse free and clear for a year if she will do what Felicity wants for one month. Addison can't believe her luck, until Felicity drops the other shoe. Addison must agree to say 'yes' to everything for the entire month; including to apply for the sisters favorite reality show where she will agree to marry the current Base Camp Sustainable Community's Kai Green. And since the lady's are convinced it is a fake, scripted show it won't really hurt anyone.

Kai can't believe his luck when he sees his (hopefully) future wife step off the airplane. When their eyes meet there is an obvious spark between the two. The requirement by the ten men to marry within one year won't be simple but they must succeed or lose the property and all they have worked for. Upon seeing Addison, Kai doesn't think this will be a hardship. When he finds out all the secrets Addison has been keeping Kai will be devastated, but the two must find a way to work through the deceit if they stand a chance of dealing with other sinister issues afoot trying to stop the camp from succeeding.

I’m very fortunate to receive an ARC copy of this book, so was lucky to read it early! So pleased to be back here with our sustainable Seal’s and their chosen women. Kai has some very real ideas of what he wants in his future, he accepts his need to marry for the community they are building at Westfield to succeed but wants his own bride! Someone different to his previous girlfriends, Kai is laid back but wants to serve others and in the past hasn’t made the best choices in his relationships! This is where Addison enters thanks to a challenge set by her sister, Addison has always admired Kai but never dreamed he would be interested in her! Yet he is, very much so and over the course of the book they really fall for each other and eventually get what both their hearts desire. Very heartwarming to be back here with the men and Regency ladies, I love the details we get of life in camp, added drama from not only the pressure of marriage to a stranger but out side forces determined to see them fail and the sense of community, I really feel as though I am there. Really enjoying this series cannot wait for the next one.

[Heather · Rating 5 out of 5]

The premise of the series might be odd but the individual stories are fantastic. These are definitely best read as a series and in order because each one picks up directly where the last one left off. In the end of the last book, Kai chose the short straw meaning he was the next that had to marry within 40 days. Of course that presents a problem when you haven't even met an eligible woman yet! So since Kai is part of a reality TV series, he naturally puts a request out on TV for a wife. Unfortunately when Addison responds to the request, she still thinks they are all acting and that she really isn't agreeing to marriage. Surprise it's actually real!
This was a great entry into the series and was actually very humorous at times. Great characters and an engaging story kept me reading and wishing the story was even longer. Can't wait to see what is in store for Curtis since he is next to marry.

Meh. Did not like the entire cult-like reality tv show premise.. i liked Kai (H) but just the entire setting was not for me

[Jane · Rating 5 out of 5]

In A SEAL's Purpose another of the SEALs at the sustainable ranch meets his new wife. Kai Green, the chef for the camp has a problem with women. He is usually attracted to the wrong type of women when you think of one to settle down with so he wants stable, competent, steady or in other words boring when he gives Boone his add. He finds a cute and interesting woman with a twinkle in her eye that turns out to be an insurance accuracy in her former life and she has gone to one year of school to become a chef, but didn't finish because she ran out of money and she still love to cook.

Addison Reynolds has a dream to be an event planner and finds a perfect fit for her talents that the women of the community need in the Bed and Breakfast that they run. She is also a big fan of the TV reality show 'Base Camp' and is highly attracted to Kai.

A bet with penthouse apartment prize based on a book gets Addison to change he appearance, wardrobe and to apply to become part of Base Camp. Big problem is that she thinks it is all scripted and not a real situation until she arrives and has a big shock when she discovers it all real.

A SEAL's Purpose puts together two attractive and hot people to make Kai and Addison a great couple and also another person with talents the new community needs. I love this series.

[Elisa · Rating 5 out of 5]

Seriously these books finish way to quickly lol I can never put them down they are that good.

Kai and Addison talk about whiplash induced reading the back and forth was fun lol will she, won't she hmmm maybe but the fact she had to say YES to everything thanks to the bet with her sister just added more hilarity to it I kept waiting for her to scream NO, No, No lol.

Kai is a sweetheart who can cook what woman in her right mind wouldn't just want to scoop him up????
Addison the sensible is trying to not be so sensible they really are a perfect match even if they don't know it and it's fun watching them fumble through Kai wonders if Addison really wants him Addison is wondering if New York is really where she wants to be when she has secretly fallen in love with Montana and Kai Green.

Talk about a tangled web, I just loved it.

A 💖 this series! I can't get enough of what happens with the guts at base camp!

SPOILERS AHEAD!























Kai has drawn the short end of the straw and now he has 40 days to get married! Now all Kai has to do is find the perfect lady so that's why he asks Boone to find him a match.
Addison wants her sister's "perfect" life..especially her condo so Felicity decides to make a bet with Addison for one month all Addison can answer is YES and then she will receive Felicity's condo but when Felicity signs Addison up to go to Base Camp to be Kai's possible bride the girls think it's just an acting gig until Addison arrives at Camp and learn the truth...that it's all REAL!

There is a secret at Base Camp that could end everything that everyone holds dear!!

[Marti · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is one of my favorites in the Seals of Chance Creek series. Addison comes to Chance Creek on a bet - thinking the reality show is just a scripted hoax. Kai wants a real wife - not a scripted one. Is this the couple that breaks up Base Camp and makes everyone lose everything?

Kai and Addison are terrific! I love base camp and Cora does it right every time! I sure hope in the end they all get to stay! This series is fun !

[ZETTER · Rating 5 out of 5]

At A Crossroad!!!

Kai Green, the cook at Base Camp along with his other Navy SEALs decided to build a substantial community in Chance Creek, Montana. They had to marry and have children or they would lose all what they've already built and much more.

Four SEALs had already found and wed their wives now it was his turn to walk down the aisle. There's only one problem, the woman (Addison Reynolds) he was suppose to marry didn't know if she wanted to stay or walk away.

Addison Reynolds always dreamed of living in NYC and her dream was about to come true when her sister Felicity offered her to live rent free in her Manhattan apartment.

But there was a condition, she would have to say yes everything her sister asked of her for 30 days. Even becoming Kai's fiancée. She couldn't refuse now she found herself engaged to a man she had a masaive crush on.

When it came to women, Kai always chose those he knew would leave him. He liked Addison the moment he saw her. As they tried to get to know each other better, he felt her distress at being there.

Getting Addison to stay would be his biggest challenge yet. She was hiding something big from him and the rest of Base Camp. When he found out her secret, let's just say that he wasn't too please with her deception.

There was a major crisis at Base Camp. Someone had stolen their whole harvest but Kai and Angus kept it from the rest of their companions. Which didn't go over well with Boone ( A SEAL'S OATH ) and the rest of the Base Camp inhabitants.

Addison and Kai faced their obstacles and made it to the altar.

A SEAL'S PURPOSE is the fifth installment in Cora Seton's SEALS OF CHANCE CREEK series. Wow what a breathtaking, captivating and magnificent ride. Cora Seton did it again, she kept me glued to my seat. Loving this series more and more with each book. 5 Golden Stars!

P. S. Looking forward to Curtis' story! ;)


****ARC given in exchange for an honest review.****

[Izzie d · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this book.
I got to be honest the whole premise for the series is a bit odd (Reality show/Jane Austen/Self Sufficiency Eco homes) but I love Cora Seton so I have tried it and looked forward to see how things worked out.

This book is part of a series and its best to read the previous books for this to make sense. It has an on going theme that is developed through the series and previous and future couples feature in each book of the series.

At the end of the previous book Kai pulled the short straw, literally.

So this book is Kai Green and Addison Reynolds.

I liked that neither were super confident types, they both had their issues and along with the problems of keeping the project going despite sabotage it was a good read. I found it sad in parts as both had a vulnerability about them but also I did really laugh too.
As always it is well written and we see previous couples and future story-lines hinted at. I am esp looking forward to Avery and Walkers book.



ARC.


The situation, the eco homes, ex military, tv show, Jane Austen, commitment to marry when you draw the short straw is somewhat bizarre.
I think if it was just the ex military eco home, tv show, commitment to marry when you draw the short straw I would be fine with it, the Jane Austen thing I find a bit wierd, but it means the women are tied there too so I just go with it.

[Sandra Aaron · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is an OK romance, but I thought that both Kai and Addison acted really immature for their ages. Kai had been a SEAL for 10 years, and Addison was 29 -- but they both acted a lot like teenagers with their first crush.

It really bothered me that Addison didn't tell Kai right away that she thought the show and the marriages were fake -- she should have told him as soon as she realized they were real. I also thought they were both kind of wimpy about standing up for themselves. Addison let her mother and sister push her around, and Kai almost let that TV producer do it. They both thought it was necessary to get what they wanted, but neither one of them really thought thru the implications of not standing up for themselves.

I also thought the book was a little too long, and some of the drama seemed a bit unnecessary. It seemed like some of it was added just to pad the book to meet a required word count.

My rating system is below.
1 star -- Hated it, or did not finish. I usually only give this rating if some of the content is truly objectionable to me, like if one of the main characters does something really awful, and gets away with it.
2 stars -- Didn't like it. This rating usually means that I thought the writing wasn't very good, the editing was terrible, I didn't like the characters, or it had other major flaws.
3 stars -- I liked it, but had some minor issues with it. This rating means that there were minor editing issues, the story needed more character development, it was just too unrealistic, or had some other fairly minor issue. The majority of books I read get this rating – I do not consider it a bad rating.
4 stars -- I liked it a lot. This is a high rating for me, and I rarely give a higher one.
5 stars -- I loved it, and will probably read it again. Very few books are good enough to get this rating from me. The ones that do are usually classics.

I really like this series and all the characters . Every love story is different, every character believable and easy to empathize with.
I can’t wait to read the next book.

This is book 5 in the series called SEALs of Chance Creek. So this means that this is marriage number 5 that has to take place in order for the former military men to gain control of the land they want for their project.

This is Kai’s story. Kai Green had joined the group and is their chef since he feels that there is a need to live small and local and with the seasons after all that he has seen during his military career. He drew the short straw and know needs to find a bride on top of his duties as the main cook and food prep person for the camp.

Addison Reynolds always has had dreams of living in New York and living the life her younger sister, Felicity, has had there. Felicity tells Addison that she will give her the penthouse apartment and the life she thinks she wants but she puts a condition on it. Addison has to say yes to everything for the next 30 days. And that is how Addison finds herself on her way to Montana and what she thinks is a spot on a scripted reality show.

Addison quickly figures out that the reality show is not a scripted one but a real, live show with real people hoping to win the land they have their community on. And she also realizes that she really does like Kai and he her. And the sparks begin to fly along with some mysteries at the camp. Can Kai and Addison overcome their differences to find true love and make it to the altar in time to meet the deadline for marriage #5 to happen?

This book is well written with well developed characters and settings. Although this is book 5 in a series, each book can be read independently and as a stand alone. But it is more fun to read them all in order since you get to know everyone.

I did receive an advance reader’s copy of this novel from the author in exchange for a fair and unbiased review. Not that that is an issue with Ms. Seton’s books since I do happen to like her writing.

A Seal’s Purpose: Seals of Chance Creek Book 5 is by Cora Seton. A group of Seals decide to try to build a sustainable community on a farm in Montana. They end up sharing the farm with a group of ladies who are living as if they were in the Jane Austin era. Boone Rudman makes a deal to have a reality show filmed as they build their community. They find they must comply with the producer’s ideas. In exchange for help, Boone had to promise that the ten men in the community would marry within a year and there would be several children on the way. Every Seal who signed on agreed and Boone was finding wives for them. It was now Kai Green’s turn.
Kai was the cook and he didn’t want just any wife, he wanted one for his own. The man who just got married had found his own wife and Boone was just going to present the woman chosen for him to Kai. Kai disagreed so Boone put out an Ad for a wife for Kai.
Addison Reynolds had gone to visit her sister Felicity in Manhattan. She loved Felicity’s apartment. Felicity wanted Addison to change and to get a husband. To get her to make some changes in her appearance and wardrobe, she challenged Addison with a bet. She bet Addison could not agree with everything for a month. She had to say yes. If she did, she would get the apartment. Addison agreed.
Saying yes was difficult; but Addison stuck with it. Felicity asked her to fill out the forms for the reality show and she did. It was completely outside her comfort zone. She did think that the show was rigged; but on arrival found out it wasn’t. She was expected to wed Kai Green. If she doesn’t, the men lose the farm and their dreams. What will she do?

Back at Chance Creek and this time, the Navy SEALs' project of sustainable living continues as well as the Regency women's Bread and Breakfast business. The camera's are still rolling for the reality TV show they all signed up for and the stakes are up for the gang to keep their dreams from ending. It's Kai's turn to find a wife and Addison, who has seen the TV show since it began, steps into Base Camp with a different set of expectations.

Having read and followed the series from the very beginning, I knew what I was up for. The background of the story and its premise are unique. The contrast between the SEALs and the Regency women make for an intriguing read. As Cora Seton has proved all along, it can work. The personal stories of each couple fits in this colourful tapestry of love at first sight, battling inner demons and finding one's true calling. It has been consistent all this time and though some parts can be predictable, it is the individual and personal journeys of each character that makes the books a fun, interesting and heart warming read.

In Book 5, Kai and Addison battle internal and external forces to be the persons they choose to be and found true love in the process. Supporting characters, like Felicity, Addison's sisters and Kai's family, provided a dynamic to the story in exploring issues on fears and detachment. By this time, there are enough characters from past books to pad and thicken each book in the series. If you are a follower, watch out for clues that lead to book 6.

ARC for honest review with no compensation

A Seal’s Purpose is book 5 of the Seals of Chance Creek series by Cora Seton and glad to be back and see how the gang is doing with the sustainable living and finding their HEA in 40 days! !

Kai Green is a former Navy Seal and the Chef for the ranch. While he has watched four of the ten men find their HEA he was hoping to not draw the short straw…uh oh guess what...he did draw the short straw and now has to marry within 40 days and plan for a family or they will all lose everything…when he goes to the airport to pick up the woman chosen as his future wife he was not prepared with the bolt of lightning that struck him or the fact she is just like all the other women he has chosen in his life…or so he thinks!

Addison Reynold’s has always wanted more in her life but doesn’t know how to let go and to be more like her sister, beautiful, smart, penthouse in NY and money. Her sister decides to show Addison and all she has to do is say “Yes” for the next month and she can have it all. All she has to do is say “Yes” on the show to being Kai’s wife and at the end of 40 days she can just leave thinking the show is not “real life”. Little does she know that if she leaves the people at the ranch could lose everything they have worked for so far.

Can Kai and Addison show their vulnerability to each other and build a life together and their HEA or will it be a “straw” that loses it all for both???

[Cindy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kai Green is an ex-SEAL and sustainability cook for Base Camp. He’s willing to marry someone he’s never met – in 40 days – to keep the community going. Kai is a bit different from what I think of as a SEAL. He does yoga, he meditates, and he was your typical blond surfer type growing up. Not your typical SEAL.

Addison has always felt second best. Never good enough on her own. A deal with her sister, and a tiny bikini, land Addison on the reality tv show Base Camp, where she is to marry Kai. Addison is a big fan of the show, but she thinks it’s all scripted and fake. So, she agrees to be on the show and “marry” Kai.

Surprise! It’s not fake. Addison and Kai have instant chemistry, and they’re good together. Is it real? Can it survive?

Cora Seton has found a winning formula for this series. The characters are well created, the community has become believable (even the Regency clothing), and the stories have just enough fun and angst to keep you turning the pages. Enjoy!

[Cindy Caron · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have yet to read anything written by Ms. Seton that I don't absolutely love, and this book is certainly no exception. I love the fact that she has created not only a fictional town, Chance Creek, but that it is the base of many different series, that intertwine together on different levels. In this series, the "reality show" that the characters are forced to participate in, makes it interesting and intriguing, and allows the reader to experience each episode as a standalone, yet enhances the experience if the books are read in order, as the history of what has transpired previously, is often called upon in the newer episodes. The characters are easy to love, each with a unique story to tell and special circumstances in which they hope to find love and forever. Beautifully written, easy to follow, and a true "escape" from reality, this book will sweep you away and let you join the action happening in Chance Creek.
I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily giving my honest opinion.

[BlueBug · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think everyone who has been reading this series has been waiting for Kai's turn at finding his wife. Addison was an unexpected surprise, and she's full of secrets. Kai is falling for her from the moment he sees her, and Addison is feeling the same toward him. However, there are some things going on at Base Camp that give this one a taciturn backstory, and the men of the community are working hard to get to the bottom of things. In the midst of all of this, Addison has to make some decisions between her life on the outside and the need for her commitment to Kai and what Base Camp stands for.

Each new one is more exciting because there's a measure of conspiracy to each plot along with our reluctant bridegrooms who need to not only make a decision about marrying but whether they can go through with it in order to maintain their sustainable community. I find myself falling for each of the men as they have their turn at matrimony. I love this series immensely.

Kai Green is the Base Camp cook – using sustainable cooking methods from solar powered ovens and earth friendly ingredients. He also drew the short straw and is the next to marry in order to keep the sustainable community going. Addison Reynolds wants to have what her sister has including a Manhattan penthouse and more. I started to write this review telling what is happening, but if you are a fan of this series, you know the basics. I will say that there are some things that ring true about this story. Addison thinks this ‘reality’ show is scripted and her staying is a pretense. I probably would think that also. And Kai has his dream of a TV show to teach people about sustainable cooking dangled in front of him and must make a hard decision. Then we have the raw desire between these two people who dance around each other. An excellent read! Couldn’t put it down! Can’t wait for the next installment!

Kai and Addison. Food. a tv show? They're already ON a Reality TV Show ~ but a cooking show? And who, exactly, IS Addison? The flighty party waif Felicity wants her to be? Or the sensible, down-to-earth helpmate Kai needs? Again ~ Ms Seton has managed to get the reader inside their heads and really understand the roadblocks ~ wow! And when Felicity crashes ~ SHE CRASHES!!!

And a mystery!!! Will we EVER find out who stole the vegetables????? I know it sounds laughable, but in this sustainable community, this is a huge blow to not only their confidence, but also the groups' wellbeing. Was it Montague? A prank? Something entirely different?!

And this is what Ms Seton is so good at: once again, we're IN the middle of the ranch ~ not just reading about it, we're LIVING IT!! (Well, except for wearing the Regency outfits!!!) I can't read fast enough!!!!

I received this book as an ARC reader, but give my honest opinion.

US Navy Seal Kie, loves to cook, and as the cook, he has ideas. Cook with different heat sources, use ingredients grow from the land and know its his responsibility to cook enough for all.

Addison knows one thing, she loves her sister Manhattan Penthouse. Her sister being a supermodel, Addison likes to throw parties to mingle with people. Her sister has another ideas and makes her a Deal. Say YES to everything for one month and she can have the penthouse.

“Yes” she will apply for Base Camp it her favorite show, and Kie is one Hot Seal.

I highly recommend this book, the whole series. I love Cora Seton’s writing style. Enjoy!

Addison wants everything her sister has, especially her penthouse. Felicity makes her a deal. All she has to do for a month is say yes to everything.
Kai had drawn the short straw. It is his turn to get married. Boone puts out the wife wanted and. All Kai really wants to do is cook and prove to everyone how to live off the land and with what you grow.
Kai picks Addison's video. She thinks this is just a reality show and can leave when she wants.
Can Kai show her how much he wants her to be his bride and stay? Can Addison find what she has been looking for all her life at base camp?

[Jean Marie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love this series and how each man captures his wife. Addison is unhappy in her life and wants to be more like her model/rich sister Felicity. Felicity tells Addison that she's moving and that Addison can have her penthouse for 1 year, if she agrees to say to anything that comes her way for one month. Addison agrees but realizes it isn't so easy. One of the things she agrees to is to be a part of the TV show Base Camp and potentially marry Kai. While she lusts for Kai, she couldn't imagine that he would want someone like her.
Of course she gets picked to be on the show. Can she keep saying yes? Will she tell Kai the truth? What will he think when he finds out the truth?
A fun series!

[Pontiki · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kai and Addison meet because her sister convinced her to say “yes” to everything for a month, then she can have her sister’s penthouse in New York when the sister moves.

She had started to work on being a chef, so Kai’s cooking and gardening suit her fine. He loves the way she takes on her share, and agrees to plan a Halloween masquerade.

But, when the time comes for her to go to New York, she finds she no longer wants the glamour of her sister’s life, she just wants Kai and her community at Base Camp.

I love the parts about Kai also trying to do his own thing with a cooking show, his cool notebook, and Addison’s party giving skills that make her a natural at the manor.

Looking forward to the next guy.
