The GRUMPY Marine

A SWEET SMALL-TOWN ENEMIES-TO-LOVERS ROMANCE

By: MIA CROSS

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

He’s all scars, silence, and black coffee.
I’m all sunshine, sass, and caramel foam hearts.

Jake “Bulldog” Martin shows up in my life like a storm cloud, rescuing me from a hornet attack, then acting like I ruined his day by surviving. The man can glare harder than the sun burns at Moonlight Beach.

But when he ends up working at my café, walls start crumbling. He saves a dolphin, fixes espresso machines, and somehow fixes me.

Three smiles later, I’m falling for him.

Then my secret shatters everything. I’m a billionaire heiress hiding from the spotlight. He walks away before I can explain.
Now my secret’s out. Personal peril is closing in, and the only man who ever made me feel safe might be the one thing I’ve lost forever.

Set against the shimmering Moonlight Beach coastline, The Grumpy Marine is a sweet small-town enemies-to-lovers romance brimming with humor, heart, redemption, and the enduring power of love to rebuild even the most battle-scarred soul.
