Summary
An incendiary and unforgettable military romance about a woman strong enough on the outside to make it into the elite Special Forces unit, and the man strong enough to see her for who she truly is on the inside, perfect for fans of Elsie Silver, Rina Kent, and Elle Kennedy.

I made it into the Special Forces course, but there are three problems.

Problem number one? One of my instructors is the infamous Special Operator Beast—a man everyone fears due to his cold heart and polished career. He loathes being away from his team, which makes graduating nearly impossible for all of us, mainly for his least favorite student: me.

Problem number two? My heart skips a beat whenever I look into his cruel eyes, and my blood heats whenever he’s near me. He’s tall, scarred, and a devastatingly irresistible man who never smiles.

Oh, and problem number three? He’s my ex-boyfriend’s dad.

We try to stay out of each other’s way to make our reckless forbidden attraction fade, but fate keeps bringing us together. The military calls me The Unbreakable Soldier, but falling for Kade O’Connell might be my undoing.

This book threw me in for a loop!! I seriously recommend listening to it since the narrators are chefs kiss! I loved the military style story and I loved the characters but I will say there are some pretty big plot holes and the ending was definitely rushed. But overall it was a good book!

This is not to be missed. We have our beautifully broken Master Seargant abd his tempting, taunting butterfly ready to wrap him in her gossamer wings. Tense, gritty and powerful delivery at times. James Cassidy and his breathy growls? Yes, yes Sir!

Intense emotional delivery
