I absolutely love anything by Tawna Fenske. Without even reading descriptions, I buy her books. This time, I entered to get an ARC from Entangled Publishing and was chosen to review Fenske's new book, Marine for Hire.When I first started reading this book, I automatically compared it to that movie with Vin Diesel going from hardened military turned babysitter, but unlike hero in The Pacifier, Sam Kercher is hot, dangerous and oh, so desirable. I read half the book in one sitting, unable to get enough.I was honestly surprised by the "F" word in some areas, as Fenske usually doesn't go that route, and the fact that her heroine has been around military men her entire life, but didn't recognize one living with her. Beds made with hospital corners, large knife with him at all times, jumpy, verbal slip ups; they all pointed to the truth: Sam was military. Either Sheridan didn't want to see Sam for who he really was, which I'm more inclined to believe even though she gave no indication of the fact, or she was really that stupid for not seeing through his explanations.In the end, I give the book 4 stars. I wanted to give it 5, but couldn't get past the heroine. I thoroughly enjoyed the plot, the hero and even the 7-month-olds Fenske threw in there and recommend it for romantic comedy lovers.
