SEAL Daddies #2
Brendan's Baby
I don't scare easily.
But she's haunting my dreams.
Haunting all my fantasies.
And I'll gladly let her.
Although I could have any woman I want,
I’m not a hit it and quit it kinda guy.
I want something more, something lasting and real.
I don’t make a habit of sleeping with the tourists,
But when Elise walks into O’Shea’s Pub, I forget my mantra.
Her fiery red hair, emerald green eyes, and curves for days,
All leave me breathless and a bit off kilter.
I’m an O’Shea. A businessman, an ex-Navy SEAL.
When I start a mission, I complete it; just like I was trained to do.
I will sweep the independent beauty off her feet,
I will convince her to stay with me forever.
And when her creep boss shows up on my island to try and stake his claim,
I will show him that no one messes with what is mine.
Elise is mine to claim.
And so is the precious gift she’s carrying.
But she's haunting my dreams.
Haunting all my fantasies.
And I'll gladly let her.
Although I could have any woman I want,
I’m not a hit it and quit it kinda guy.
I want something more, something lasting and real.
I don’t make a habit of sleeping with the tourists,
But when Elise walks into O’Shea’s Pub, I forget my mantra.

Hot Island Nights
When darkly handsome, blue-eyed Brendan O’Shea turned 18, he followed his big brother, Connor, into the Navy, and eventually into the elite SEALS. And now, after 20 years of service, he has once more followed Connor to St Martin where Connor has retreated to find his land legs and to clear his mind and heart of the dark shadows of his many experiences as a SEAL. There on the Caribbean island, like Connor before him, Brendan, has worked to find peace, first working with his brother at the Irish bar founded in remembrance of their grandfather’s Chicago bar, O’Shea’s, and then creating a family compound on the bones of a former resort which the brothers have bought to refurbish.
And now, Bren is also turning his energies to a new enterprise under the O’Shea portfolio. He has started a surfing school, and as with everything an O’Shea’s touches, it is flourishing. But, Bren seeks one more missing component to make his island happiness and life complete. He wants a companion—a wife, and someday a child—like Connor has. So, he has reached the point in his life where island hook ups with fun-seeking tourists are no longer appealing. He’s had enough of that life. Now, he wants a woman to love, and with whom he can share his life and dreams of family.
Elise VanNess, the beautiful fiery red-haired, green-eyed newly promoted junior ad exec, is excited when she and Karin, her photographer and best friend settle themselves into the company booked and paid for St Martin resort. Elise has more than earned this opportunity to advance in her career: she has produced exceptional work and she has successfully dodged the unwanted and unsought ardent advances of her boss, the slimy Gavin Peters, the Harvey Weinstein of her NYC ad agency. Finally, she has achieved notice and advancement on her own merits and has been given the opportunity to work under her own direction on the ad project to promote a spiced rum, giving life to the campaign concept of “Hot Island Nights.”
And, after successful days of shooting “Hot Island Nights,” Elise and Karin find their way to O’Shea’s where they discover that the theme of the shoot might, in fact, be the description of their time in the company of two of the brothers O’Shea as the two friends share their island experience with Brendan and his younger brother Mickey—also a former SEAL and now a part of the O’Shea brother’s island enterprises. But when Elise’s boss, the invasive and irritating Gavin wants to add his personal touch to Elise’s island time, threatening the shoot and her island experience, Brendan’s SEAL years are required to restore peace to Elise’s “Hot Island Nights.”
Annie Rose brings two individuals together who seek a person who will walk with them through life. Filled with tension and passion, Rose weaves a powerful and moving love story. This is a novel that not only entertains, but also provokes the reader's contemplation of the road blocks and threats which can impede an individual’s growth and the growth of relationships on the pathway to love.

She will be having "Hot Island Nights" now and forever if he gets his way
Brendan's Baby is the second book in the SEAL Daddies series and is the story of Brendan O'Shea and Elise VanNess.
Brendan is one of the O'Shea brothers who have all served in the military. For Brendan it meant joining the Navy at eighteen and then working hard to become a SEAL. After twenty years in he retired and followed older brother Connor, his story is in Connor's Baby, to St. Martins. There the brothers bought and are running bar. Now he has also established a surfing school and things are are going well. But there is still one thing missing.....a wife and family. He may be hearing the siren song of a mermaid sooner than he thinks.
Elise has come to St. Martins with her best friend Karin on business. Elise is a junior ad exec and Karin is a photographer. They have both been sent to the island to shot an ad for "Hot Island Nights", an ad campaign for a spiced rum. This is a big opportunity for Elise but she has earned this and is determined to make it successful.
Elise and Karin end up at at the very hot and fun Irish pub that the O'Shea brothers own. There they meet Brendan and his younger brother Mickey. Can anyone say "Hot Island Nights" is more than a campaign as these two ladies have some very hot and steamy nights of their own. But not everything goes smoothly for Elise as he slimy and pervy boss Gavin Peters shows up and wants to give Elise his own island experience. Let's just say that it is going to take a tactical team plan to ensure that Gavin does not destroy Elise's campaign and keep him away from her. But Brendan is up to the task as he knows that Elise is his for now and forever and once again he is handsomely rewarded for his efforts.
This is a fun, entertaining, and riveting story filled with drama, suspense, some danger, intense chemistry and romance/love. The book is well written and the characters are nicely developed and fit well together. The author has does a wonderful job with this second book in the series. I can't wait to read the next O'Shea brothers story.

This is the 2nd story in the Seal Daddies Series. This is one beautiful love story where Brendan and Elise meet unexpectedly in his brother’s bar in St Martin while Elise is on a business trip. Brendan is the 2nd oldest of his brothers who have all served as Seals and has heart of gold that’s ready to be shared with the right woman, not some tourist looking for a fling. Elise is in charge of the photo shoot for her Advertising company and when her smarmy boss shows up things go from happy with this new relationship with a Elise and Brendan to something of a nightmare as her boss’s unprofessional behavior. Brandan was a Navy Seal for many years and knows what it means to treat a woman with love and care so he does everything he can to keep her safe. The O’Shea brothers have several successful businesses on the island and are some very hot alpha men who have become slightly famous. Elise takes the time to make a decision about her professional and personal life and along the way she finds all she wants with Brandan. I look forward to see who Is next to fall in love and their journey. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I love this series by Annie J. Rose. Brendan's Baby is another O'Shea brother finding love. Brendan is the brother who isn't afraid of feelings. He wants to find his partner and spend his free time with her. He sees what his brother Conner has with Brandi and wants the same. When Brendan sees Elise across the bar he is captivated. Looking into her eyes he feels something he had never ever felt to this magnitude.
Elise is all business. She has spent her time working hard to advance at work. Now in the Caribbean to shoot and ad campaign rebranding a product, she knows this is her time to prove herself. Somehow after talking to Brendan work doesn't seem to be as important. She finds a comfort in Brendan that she has never known.
They fit together naturally. Brendan romances Elise in ways that touch her heart and soul. He needs to get her to want to stay with him on the island. This is not a casual vacation fling. All of the O'Shea brothers are in this story. So much alpha testosterone! They will need to harness this when Elise's life is threatened. Brendan's protective streak is strong as is that of all of the brothers'. Elise is now family.

Great book
Brendan knew he wanted Elise the minute he walked into the bar and seen her. She was not a one night stand kind of person and neither was he. Her and her best friend left the bar for the nite and went to another place the next night and she was drunk so she went back to the Irish bar and told Brendan he was hit and sexy. Her best friend gave him her number she was there for a photo shoot but her sleazy boss showed up unannounced and made the move on her at a dinner with the clients and Brendan saved her and took her to his place for the nite. She called HR THE next day he ended up breaking into her hotel rooms destroying everything. They went to a picnic and Gavin showed up and tried to kidnap her and make her pay for trying to ruin him and the OShea men heard her yell and all ran to find her. She ended up getting a settlement. And stayed i. St Martin with Brendan and opening her own agency and of course her BFF is going to work for her too. So she ends up getting her happy ever after

Another really enjoyable love story from Annie J. Rose. Elise is a young marketing person working for an advertising agency and in St. Martin for the first photo shoot that she will manage on her own. Brendan is an ex-SEAL who manages a bar, a surfing school, and is renovating a hotel with his two other brothers, one of whom is already happily married. Brendan wants to settle down with someone he can love; Elise seems like a New York girl who is down there for a week of fun and not what he is looking for. However, they start a relationship that becomes incredibly passionate very quickly – strengthened by Brendan protecting Elise from her creepy boss who comes to try and take advantage of her. Both Brendan and Elise were really warm and sincere people who fell in love very quickly – and the supporting characters, her best friend and his brothers, were also interesting and energetic.

Definitely Hot and Steamy....
Brendan O’Shea thought life was pretty good. Only one thing was missing. He wanted a forever kind of love. A committed partner. But he doesn’t think that’s ever gonna happen. And then he sees the girl of his dreams across the bar. He couldn’t look away. She’s gorgeous, bright red hair and a smile that lights up a room. Life just got a whole lot brighter.
Elise came to St. Marten to oversee a photoshoot with her best friend Karin. The first night out they go to O’Shea’s Irish pub. The look from the gorgeous man across the bar makes her melt. Things heat up pretty quickly between them and they can’t seem to get enough of each other. But Elise has a dangerous problem that’s followed her to the Island. One thing the Navy Seals taught Brendan is how to solve a problem. Elise is his and he isn’t gonna let the woman he loves go.

I loved this book just as much as the first in the series, but both books can be read as a standalone. This book had me gasping, laughing, shouting, and wishing I could go there for real. The O'Sheas are all brilliant, hot ex Seals with hearts of gold. This book is about Brendon and Elise and what a read it is, you will need a strong fan just to try and keep you cool as it is very hot, sexy, and heartstopping in places. The location in the book is described so well I could almost hear the surf on the beach, and picture the island so well I felt like I was there. All the characters fit so well. this is a must-read if you love exotic locations so real you feel like you have been transported there with very lively characters and a HEA.

To start out, this series is about the five O'Shea brothers, all who were Navy Seals, and now live in the tropical paradise of St Martin. Brendan O'Shea is the second oldest of the brothers. He is looking for a wife to spend his life with, not just a tourist hook-up, when into his and his brothers' pub walks a beautiful woman with firey red hair. That is Elise, who is on the island for business. She is in charge of a photo shoot for an ad. He teaches surfing. The chemistry is immediate, which is steamy hot, but she is going to be there for only a short time. A short term romance is not what he was looking for, but it seems to have found him. This is a wonderful story. The banter between the brothers will keep you smiling and laughing. The storyline will pull you into it, to the point that you will not want to put it down. I highly recommend this book, and this series.

I thought the first book was good, this one is even better. And with more books in the series I’m excited to keep reading. This series is about the O’Shea Brothers, all previous read Navy SEALs, that decided to move to Saint Martin and put up a real Irish pub. Each of the brothers has their own thing. Brendan teaches surfing. Brandi and her best friend are on Saint Martin’s to do a photo shoot. Brandi is excited to get away from her boss who has been making the moves on her. When she gets to Saint Martin, her and Brendan find there is more than a vacation fling there. Something extreme happens when her boss shows up, and what was bad before has become a nightmare. Brendan not only wants to save the girl but he wants to keep her forever. Great book, so exciting, steamy, and of course the beautiful happily ever after all good romance books need.

WOW, another fantastic book by Annie. I really enjoy reading her books.
The story just flowed from start to finish for me and what a story.
I really felt for the main characters in this book. In particular the female
main character. She had so much trouble with her boss or supposed boss.
I had a great connection with all the characters except for her boss. I did not like him
one little bit, but he did help make the story.
As for Brendon and his family, they are a very close family and it shows in the story.
I didn`t find any spelling mistakes or any holes in the plot of this story.
I really recommend this book to people over the age of 18+

This is the second book in the series. It can be enjoyed and understood as a stand alone if you haven't read the first. Once you read this one though I'm sure you'll be interested in all these books. We have our very strong alpha male in Brendan, he's not looking for a fling or to play around. When he meets Elise he falls hard and fast and will do whatever it takes to ensure heir future together. Annie J. Rose does an excellent job in writing a fast paced engaging story, there is just enough drama thrown in to keep readers turning he pages in an effort to see how it all plays out. I can't wait to see who's next.

Book two in the SEAL Daddies series is wonderfully written with beautiful chemistry between Brendan and Elise that kept this reader turning the pages just to find out how their love story would progress and whether there would be a HEA for them after all. I love the concept of this series about brothers who all become Navy SEALS and when it comes time for them to resume civilian life they all gravitated towards each other once again to establish their new lives and their own families together. This book just reaffirmed exactly why I have enjoyed everything that I have read by Annie J. Rose. Definitely a keeper!

Her Knight In Paradise -
I really enjoyed reading book one, but I never expected book two would be this captivating and mind blowing. The chemistry between Brendan and Elise is intense and will have you squirming in your seat, as you turn the pages to read the scenes depicting their sexual encounters. This heartwarming and painful story, will give you heart palpitations, but by the time you finish reading this book, you will definitely need a cold shower to centre yourself. I highly recommend you add this book to your weekend reads list.

Wow!! This author is becoming one of my all time favorites. This story and the one before it are so compelling that you can't stop reading part way through it. The characters are very interesting and well developed. You feel like you know them personally. Each brother is unique but together make for a complete set! How good it would be to have your own hero like Brendan is for Elise. This story is full of danger, fear, compassion and romance. A must read!! I highly recommend this book, you won't be disappointed!!

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
Oh wow, what a story. If you loved book 1 about Connor and Brandi, well you won’t be disappointed with this story either. Now we read about Brandon and oh boy he is just perfect. Every woman will want him. It’s not just his looks, it’s the man himself. So loving, caring, gentle, passionate and so much more. All he wants is someone of his own to love and care for. Then he meets her....Elise. When she walked into O’Sheas bar with her friend Karin he was hooked. Their chemistry is off the charts and he wants to love and protect her. He has to as well, against her Pervy Boss Gavin . Great characters, great plot, loved it

Brendan's Baby by Annie J. Rose is extraordinary and more than worthy of a five-star rating. Brendan and Elise have such chemistry that my kindle almost caught fire. Elise came to the island of St Marten in charge of doing a photoshoot with her friend Karin as the photographer. The first night they went to a bar where she met Brendan one of the owners of O'Shea's authentic Irish Pub. There is drama aplenty. Annie J. Rose writes a contemporary romance with tremendous appeal to interest everyone wanting to read a great romance.

A delightful island romance
The second book in the SEAL Daddies series is equally delightful as the first. This time the “victim" is Brendan who is tempted by the red headed Elise, who came to the island with her friend Karin to do a photo shoot. Just like his brother Connor there’s no holding back in his efforts to win her. This is especially true when her creepy boss shows up to try to “win” her. Romance, humor, and drama beautifully combined.

Really loving the books in this series. Brendan runs a pub and Elise is on the island for work. Things are going very well until her sleazy boss turns up. Then Brendan's protector mode comes out.
This was a great book, with so much drama and action. I appreciated the chemistry between the two as it was well written and with feeling. Really author is doing so great with these books and cant wait to see if there will be more.

This is book two in the SEAL Daddies series and Brendan and Elise's story. I am loving this series and how it's about Navy SEAL's falling in love. The characters are likable and the story pulled me in and had me cheering for these two to get their HEA. Neither Brendan nor Elise wanted just a one night relationship and they end out falling in love. Brendan's Baby is a great addition to the SEAL Daddies series and I can't wait to read the next great book by this author. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

Fantastic story.
Loved Brendan & Elise's story it was love at first sight they were perfect for each other. Elise knew she was only on the island for work & would be leaving soon but neither of them could deny the sexual chemistry & feelings they started to have but when she is attacked it makes them realise they can't live without each other. This is a sweet, hot, funny, tearful love story but also has an evil person causing Elise pain. I love the O'Shea brothers & her best friend Karin.

Another terrific Read
Brendan and Elise lock eyes as she enters the family's Irish pub and instantaneously they feel sparks.
Elise is on a work trip with her best friend Karin when she meets Brendan. Feeling a bit tipsy and brave she approaches him in the funniest way. Her number is left as he's serving customers and he decided to text asking her out and then their journey begins. He becomes her protector, friend, lover and more. I enjoyed their journey and now I'm on the the next brothers book. These Seal Daddies are so sexy.

Brendan and Elise make this story sizzle with its Caribbean Island back drop. Elise is on the Island to do a photo shoot and happy to be away from her handsy boss. She meets Brendan at the bar, and it's love at first sight for these two. The sparks between them ignites a powerful passion. All is going well until her boss shows up. When he makes a pass towards Elise, things get out of hand sending Brendan into protective mode. This story keeps you glued to all the drama!

Elise is a junior ad executive who has gone to St. Martin to shoot her latest campaign with her best friend and photographer Karin. Brendan is beginning to feel the it is time to settle down. He wants more than a fling. When he sees Elise in the pub sparks fly.
I love the story and cannot wait to read more about the O'Shea brothers. The characters were amazing and realistic.

When Elise goes to St.Marten to film a ad for a client she meets Brendan O'Shea who co-owns the Irish Pub with his brothers and also teaches surfing lessons. It is instant attraction at first sight but neither one want a one night stand but when she sleazy boss shows up hitting on her he takes her home with him where they spend the best night of their lifes in each others arms. I loved these O'Shea man and this is another hit.

An entertaining page turner and book two in the SEAL Daddies series! The story-line is well written, relatable, emotionally deep, funny, engaging, and steamy with drama, suspense, and more. The characters are well developed, likeable, and real; the chemistry between them is instant and kindle melting! Definitely recommended!
