Why have I never read a Brazen title before now? Really, I need to know this. Marine For Hire is the first title that I’ve read and if they are all in the same vein, I need more of them in my life!Sheridan Patton-Price comes from a long line of military men, even her brothers went into the military and she married a Navy officer. But when her marriage implodes because of his infidelity she is burdened with raising her 7-month old twins alone. Overall this isn’t a problem but she feels inadequate, always judging herself against all the “normal mothers”. And let’s not forget she’s completely over military men.Enter Sam Kercher, Marine sniper and best friend of Sheri’s brother Mac. Home from a mission gone awry in Kabul, he is propositioned by Mac to look out for Sheri and her boys. The two begin to pass Sam off as your everyday manny but you know what they say about best laid plans. While Sam is great with the twins, and a great handyman, he’s not too great with everything else. But, he’s there to protect Mac’s family and it’s something he takes seriously.There is so much to love with this book. There’s a hot Marine, cute twins, and lots and lots of steamy scenes. Did I mention it’s really funny too?I’ll be honest though, it’s really your typical romance. Boy and girl meet. Sex ensues and then DRAMA! Then all is well in the end. I’m not complaining one bit though. Sam and Sheri are completely likable and so cute together. They are blunt and I find that refreshing if only for the fact that they remind me a lot of me. Tact isn’t really in my vocab a lot of the time. Just the way they interact with each other, or Sheri with her friend Kelli, it’s just too good.So let’s recap, shall we? What’s great about Marine For Hire? The twins. Sam. Sheri. Bluntness. Humor. Sexy, steamy scenes.
