Aarabelle Dempsey always knew her true destiny and master plan. She was merely prolonging the execution by traveling the world for a year after she graduated the Naval Academy. A hidden romantic, she anticipated falling in love at some point. A British up and coming recording artist tempted her with love, but instead of proposing marriage, he stomped on her heart by having a sordid, highly publicized affair with a media mogul debutante.

With Aarabelle’s mom, Natalie at the helm of CJJ Public Relations at their San Diego branch, and her Dad, Liam now finishing his career as a SEAL BUD/S instructor in Coronado, she is back to seize what is rightfully hers and heal her broken heart.

Aarabelle will be the first female Navy SEAL.

One teammate, Luke Hart, has his own LEGACY to fulfill, and even though she’s off limits, and as complicated as their friendship becomes, Luke finds himself questioning everything about what he thought he wanted.

Luke and Aarabelle might be following the legacy set forth for them by their parents, but the love they find along the journey is legendary…and forbidden.

The Crazy Good SEAL Series Boxed Set

CRAZY GOOD BLURB:

Before there were bikers, or fighters, or even good old-fashioned jerks, there were Navy SEALs. They put the bad in badass because, well…it’s their job.

Navy SEAL Maverick Hart has everything. Women want him. Grown men idolize him. Little boys want to grow up and be like him. The job, the glory—it’s all his. Not because it’s handed to him…because he works hard for it. The second his sights lock on something, he owns it—or destroys it. Unfortunately he does both at the same time.

Windsor Forbes only takes calculated risks in her profession and in her personal life. After being left at the altar by the only person she’s ever loved, the very last thing she’s looking for is a relationship—especially the insane brand an arrogant Navy SEAL is offering. Hesitant, yet trusting to a fault, she gives in.

She knew she shouldn’t take the chance, especially a second time, but love is irrational and their love is perfect, infallible. Or so she thought…

The downfall to having everything is you have that much more to lose. A man like Maverick can’t have it all without something slipping out of grasp.

Crazy people perish for love.

Good people live for it.

Love doesn’t die. No matter how many bullets you put in it.

 

SET IN STONE BLURB:

There is something all too vague about second chances. What happens when your utterly perfect, first chance never really ends? What if it’s stolen?

Bull-nosed attorney Morganna Sterns knows what she wants. Self assured, powerful, and independent, she finds herself struggling to find balance between honoring what has been stolen, and deciding if her second chance is going to end just as tragically.

Steven Warner is a Navy SEAL with nothing to lose. His overt humor and charm paired with his lethal skill set make him a perfect catch–for the right type of woman. His world is littered with relationships, but only one stands the test of time. Competing with a ghost is hard. Especially when that ghost is a teammate: his brother at arms.

It’s not, “it is what it is.” It’s what you make it. What you, and only you decide it should be. Navy SEALs never make the same mistake twice.

Will Morganna?

 

TIME AND SPACE BLURB:

Several men did Navy SEAL Cody Ridge DIRTY.

Not only did they take his career and his fiancée, they stole everything but his life, and he barely escaped with that.

Cody is back.

As the boss of Ridge Contracting, his life is a blur of adrenaline and endless hours of work. Thriving and successful, he has never forgotten what was taken or who is to blame. His scars run as deep as the hatred in his heart.

Everything Cody lost will be his again. At any cost.

Lainey Rosemont can decorate anything. Your drab bedroom? She’s got it. A rundown shack in the middle of N.Y.C.? Lainey is the woman for the job. Unfortunately her past love life isn’t something she can Feng shui.

She has moved on from her relationship with Cody. It was over–literally buried in the ground. When he comes spiraling back into her life she’s not sure where their limits lie. With her nuptials to the swoony, heartthrob, Navy SEAL, Dax Redding fast approaching Lainey has decisions to make and a past of sinister secrets to confront.

Time changes everything and space apart turns lovers into strangers.

The only thing standing between happily ever after and fate is revenge.

ANNOUNCEMENT

NEVER ALWAYS IS HERE!

I’m happy to bring you my newest standalone romance, NEVER ALWAYS. I worked hard on this story, and it took me longer to write than my typical novel. A little bit of that is because I moved across the country (HELLO COLORADO), and a little bit is because how complex the dynamic of the character’s relationship was. There are so many facets that went into creating what you’ll read between Tennyson and Grange, and I hope that when you get to the last line, you’ll feel “it” like I do every time I reread the scene. That stare at a blank wall for several minutes comprehending and soaking in what it all means, and how you’re able to view the characters in a whole different light kind of thing. (That’s my favorite kind of book!)

There is action and steam, and plot twists that will shock you. At base level this story is about change and acceptance, and yeah, it’s romance, so DESTINY. Except it’s in a form you won’t recognize until that last line. (Again, that last line, guys!) Crafting this story made me laugh, cry, and fall in love in every shape and form. The side characters are just as important as the main characters, and to do them all justice, the path was rough and harrowing. Never Always is a journey. One that is paved in my heart for the rest of my life. I hope you’ll join me on it.

Happy reading.

All my “you’re awful” love,

Rachel

Never Always Exclusive Excerpt

I’m here today with an exclusive look inside NEVER ALWAYS. This novel is a full length, standalone in The Harbour Point SEAL Series. It does NOT have to be read in series order. It is an enemies to lovers romance with an epically fought for HEA. Angst. Twists. STEAM. A serial killer on the loose. This novel will keep you on the edge of your seat!

Enjoy this snippet below: 

He flashes me a white smile. Sex in grin form. My stomach flips. He goes to speak, laughs a bit, shakes his head, and tries again. “Without a shadow of a doubt, you will one day understand what the fuss is about. It might not be with the geek.”

“Grey,” I correct, interrupting him. “His name isn’t Geek.”

He nods. “Grey. Sex destroys things, you’re right. But it also makes a whole hell of a lot of things better. You’ll know it when you feel it.” My core clenches and I’m impossibly confused how mere words affect my body so viscerally.

Unconsciously, I step back, away from him and the conversation. “Why does it matter anyways? If I was a virgin?”

He stalks forward. “It clears things up for me. Helps me help you.”

My heart hammers against my ribs. It’s so violent, I wonder if Grange can see the movement. “It’s just sex,” I stammer.

He raises both eyebrows. His shoulders and biceps flex and bunch as he moves and the fluid contractions draw my eyes to places it shouldn’t be. Again. “If you’re doing it right, it will never be just sex.”  He grabs the end of my hair that’s wet on my shoulder. “You described your first time as a transaction. Did he see you?”

My throat is dry and my hands shake. “No.”

“I see you,” Grange growls. “I want to see you in a different way.” He lays a hand on my hip and fire ignites centering on where his hand is. I’m burning. I’ve lost my mind. It’s the only explanation.

He steps forward again, and I wobble backward a step. “What way?” I ask, looking up coyly.

He grabs me with his other arm and lifts me off the pool deck. “I want to see you look like a drowned rat. Cannon ball!” His voice echoes as he jumps off the side of the pool and plunges us into the water, the cool slicing the fire into a million pieces.

When we surface, he releases me and I try to move the hair out of my face, spluttering for air.

“You’re fired, Corrick Granger.”

His reply is the happiest laugh I’ve heard in my entire life.

 Blurb:

Tennyson

In a family filled with picturesque butterflies, I’m a moth. Camouflaged. The invisible, nerdy scientist who would rather study water and save the planet than don a dress and mingle in southern society. Unfortunately, having my nose in a book and eating goals for breakfast doesn’t bode well for a social life or my cobweb covered dating sector.

 

Then I met Grange. He’s a tormenter—an epic bully, but he’s promised to help me in my lackluster areas. He’s been ordered to fulfill service hours at my Aquatic Lab in Cape Cod, if I allow it.

 

He is bad, the worst. I’m talking wearing prison garb when I met him kind of awful. We all have our demons, but Corrick Granger’s seep into everything and everyone around him. Sure, I’d love his expertise on how to land a guy, but I’m not sure any man is worth dealing with an outcast Navy SEAL who has more issues than a magazine subscription.

 

Grange

One hazy mistake was all it took to ruin my life. Well, one mistake coupled with a chain of bad decisions, and a side of my hot temper. The court doled out an easy community service sentence. Never anything too harsh for a “hero.” I’ll be back at the Teams in six months, easy. I need to keep my cool, put my head down, and follow the rules.

 

A fiery redhead with something to prove is all that stands between me and my freedom. Tennyson is a maddening combination of know-it-all and knows-nothing. The type of woman who would cut off her own nose to spite her face, and yet when my one mistake snowballs into a life altering, soul-damning error, she’s undeniably there for me.

 

Even though I don’t deserve it.

 

Even though I’ve kept secrets.

 

And despite the fact I have become the monster she knew I would be.

NEVER ALWAYS COVER REVEAL

Today is the day I can finally share the stunning cover of NEVER ALWAYS with you. It is a standalone, full length novel in my Harbour Point SEAL Series. There is action, and twists, steam, a slow burn, and best of all an ending that will have you swooning. I love this story so much and I can’t wait until it releases on December 6!
