HIS VOW TO DEFEND IBD

Sinopse

Recon Pilot Aldo Matthews is adept at search and rescue missions, but can he adapt to show love and tenderness to the woman he once bullied as a girl?áAs the only unmarried person in her department, Elayne Jade is often overlooked and always passed over when it comes to the decision-making in her job as school guidance counselor. Those discussions take place at couplesâÇÖ dinners and brunches which sheâÇÖs never invited. ItâÇÖs wrong that sheâÇÖs not up for career advancements because she doesnâÇÖt have a ring or husband. Then she wakes up one morning with a diamond on her finger and her worst enemy in her hotel room.áSince he was a kid, nothing has fascinated Aldo Matthews more than Elayne Jade. The curve of her lips when sheâÇÖs insulting him. The flash of her eyes when she dismisses his taunts. The flip of that fire red hair when she turns away from him in a huff. Aldo takes every chance he can get to rile ElayneâÇÖs temper so that he can see that fire inside her. So when he finds her one night at a bar out of town a bit tipsy, bemoaning the fact that she doesnâÇÖt have a ring on her finger, he puts one there.áAnnulling this sham of a marriage is the first thing on ElayneâÇÖs mind. Her reputation would never survive the fact she eloped with her mortal enemy after getting drunk. Only now that sheâÇÖs sober, sheâÇÖs seeing Aldo in a new light. And when her colleagues spot the ring on her finger, they start inviting her out and making her part of the conversation.ááAldo has no intention of letting Elayne flip her hair and walk away from him again. Not when itâÇÖs so much sweeter to twine his fingers in her tresses and feel those sassy lips move against his. But AldoâÇÖs hiding a secret, one that could douse the growing heat between the woman who hates the fact that sheâÇÖs falling for him.Find out what happens in His Vow to Defend, the sixth in a series of heartwarming stories that prove that falling in love is an act of heroism, but finding family is lifeâÇÖs most extraordinary achievement.
