Have you ever wondered what might have happened if you stepped out of your comfort zone just once?  Hope Camden is a serious student.  She does not do flings.  So why does Jack Freeman make her want to throw caution to the wind?Hope literally stumbles into the arms of Jack, when she attempts to enter the beautiful Montgrove Inn in snowy North Carolina.  She is there because her sister Audrey is standing up in a holiday wedding.  As Hope and Jack look at each other sparks begin to fly, and they are both at a loss for words.  As Jack walks away Hope notices his glorious backside and then is beside herself.  Since when has she ever oogled anyone?  When they both end up at the same wedding party Jack makes his move.  He and Hope had a wonderful evening getting to know each other, but the night has to come to an end.  Will Hope walk away or take a chance at having a hot and steamy fling with a sexy soldier?Sawyer Bennett evokes a lot of emotion in this short novella.  The chemistry between Jack and Hope is smokin hot.  The mirror scene is sinfully erotic.  This story is about more than a one night stand though.  When a soldier is deployed overseas it is really hard on their family, friends, and loved ones.  I speak from experience.  When Hope read Jack's letter it hit me close to home and I could not hold back the tears.  This novella read more like a full length novel, in that the story was not rushed.  It was perfectly balanced and I loved the HEA.If you like sexy alpha male military heros, and women who do not know that they are beautiful, you will really enjoy If I Return.
