A steamy age-gap romance about a unbreakable young woman who joins the Special Forces program, the no-nonsense commander whose job is to break her down, and an incendiary, attraction that threatens to consume them both.

I made it into the special forces course, but there are three problems.
Problem number one? One of my instructors is the infamous Special Operator Beast—a man everyone fears due to his cold heart and polished career. He loathes being away from his team, which makes graduating nearly impossible for all of us, mainly his least favorite student, me.

Problem number two? My heart skips a beat whenever I look into his cruel eyes, and my blood heats whenever he’s near me. He’s tall, scarred, and a devastatingly irresistible man who never smiles.

Oh, and problem number three? He’s my ex-boyfriend’s dad.

We try to stay out of each other’s way to make our reckless attraction fade, but fate keeps bringing us together. The military calls me The Unbreakable Soldier, but falling for Kade O’Connell might be my undoing. Action & Adventure Military Heartfelt Solider

This story, Gran & Graham, Violet & Kade...their story is 1 I knw all too well. My husband & I were 9+ yrs apart ago wise bit despite all the occupation turmoil frm him, we married & had 5 beautiful kids over 20+ years. He passed away in 2024 & this story jus hit so close to home, actually is my home. Everyone is worthy of luv, no matter ur scars. This story is definitely worth the money/credit, jus be ready for the emotional roller-coaster lol.
