    About this audiobook

    I've always been the brother with a plan.

    It's not that I stood out that much. Raised by a Marine father and a kick ass Marine wife, our life has always had a sense of order to it. I like that. Plans don't fail. You fail to plan.

    Only, I didn't plan for MJ. She's a hard-headed physical therapist who's taking care of one of my buddies, and she rubs me the wrong way. And by rubs me the wrong way, I mean, I can't get her out of my mind. I always knew about the Santini Curse, I just didn't know it would drive me to chase a woman.

    She tells me she doesn't have time for romance, and definitely not with a man who wears a uniform. She agrees to a simple affair, but nothing beyond that. But she's never dealt with a Santini man in love, and remember I'm the one who plans everything.

    And the only plan on my schedule is proving to MJ that loving a Santini might not be easy, but we are definitely worth the fight.

    Melissa Schroeder

    From an early age, USA Today Bestselling author Melissa loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book. Since her first published book, Grace Under Pressure, Mel has had over 60 short stories, novellas, and novels published. She has written in genres ranging from historical to contemporary to futuristic and has worked with 8 publishers although she handles most of her publishing herself. She is best known for her Harmless and Santini series. After years of following her military husband around the country and world, Mel happily lives with her family in horse and wine country in Northern Virginia.

    • 4/5
      Good read, but kind of short. I’m a huge fan and like her novels. Plus, I’m used to the story being told from the Characters point of view, this was narrated. However, being born and raised in southeast Texas I appreciate the Whataburger and Blue Bell references.
