Book description
Careers in military service are never easy on relationships-even less
so when both lovers are in different branches...and both are men. Naval
Academy graduation now under their belts, Cary Barrientos knows the
reality of the upcoming separation from his roommate of the past four
years. Owen is more to him than just his best friend-he is the one
person Cary can see spending his life with. Owen Marsh knew that when he
became Cary's lover, the day would come when he would have to walk away.
Now that day has come, and he's having a hard time convincing himself
that it's just sex between them. Even with DADT repealed, there is no
way a Marine and a Navy flier can be together. He's just being realistic
not expecting more. When Cary switches their Academy rings, hoping Owen
won't notice, he makes a vow-he will do whatever he has to do, including
believing enough for the both of them, to make their unlikely
relationship stand the test of time. But when his Marine is called up
for duty overseas, can a piece of jewellery and a promise be enough to
get them through? Devon started reading and writing at an early age
and never looked back. After a creatively-sapping career in the business
world, she gratefully took some time off to be at home. At 39 and
holding, Devon finally figured out the best way to channel her midlife
crisis was to morph from mild-mannered stay-at-home mom to erotic
romance writer. She lives in Oregon with her husband and two girls, who
are (mostly) understanding of all the time she spends on her laptop, aka
the black hole.
