Rescued by the SEAL — EmKay Connor

He's a SEAL who can't find love...She's a woman who will never trust again...A lie unites them; will the truth ruin their chance for a future?Maren MartinMy father is one of the richest men in Texas. I could be spending my days shopping or lounging poolside, but instead, I'm catering the society events I used to attend. And that's exactly how I prefer it. No one wants to be treated like a commodity or bargaining chip, and that's exactly what my father did. Pledged my hand in marriage to seal a deal with a newly elected senator. It's a promise I have no intention of honoring, but some men refuse to take no as an answer. When I find myself cornered, Tex Forsyth, Navy SEAL and the high school crush I never got over, whisks me to safety in his private jet. At least that was the plan...until we crashed on a deserted island.Tex ForsythIt's great being a good old boy, that pal everyone can count on. The guy you can call for a ride in the middle of the night when you had one too many. The friend who actually shows up when you're moving from the third floor apartment in a building with no elevators. The SEAL teammate who covers your six, on and off the battlefield. It's not so great when you're perpetually friend zoned. Maybe that's a good thing because I can't help comparing every woman I meet to the one who walked out on me. I never dreamed that stepping in to save her from a notorious playboy would turn into a test of survival. I'm determined to protect her at all costs. I may come out alive, but what about my heart?Rescued by the SEAL is a sweet with heat, second chance, forced proximity, woman in peril, military hero, instalove romance.
