Tawny Weber - A SEAL's Secret

Subject: Lt. Commander Mitch “Irish” Donovan

His Mission: Babysit a fitness queen with a hands-on approach!

Navy SEAL Mitch Donovan always plays to win. The push-up contest at the Halloween party should have been a piece of cake. Except that the cake in question is a hot woman dressed as a delicious dessert. Now the only exercise on Mitch’s mind is restraint...

Livi Kane may be The Body Babe, but she has zero confidence. This hunky SEAL, however, makes her forget everything—except for a workout involving his hot, naked bod and a whole lot of sexy, sweaty delight. But Mitch has his secrets—and Livi certainly has hers. All it will take is one unexpected encounter to turn this steamy attraction into an even bigger secret that will start showing any day now...

I love the holidays, so it was extra fun to visit a few of them in this story, beginning with Halloween. It just seemed right that we kick off with treat time! And boy, oh boy, is Mitch Donovan a treat. I adore these sexy SEALs and Mitch’s new-kid-on-the-block status with the team makes him even more interesting to get to know. Especially for Livi Kane, aka The Body Babe. Who better for a military machine than a fitness queen?

One of the benefits of writing this book was it inspired a great need to exercise! I’m fond of fitness as a rule, but tend to keep it on the as-I-get-to-it level. But Livi’s approach is stuck in my head now so I might have to step up my game. Of course, it’d be easier with a great fitness instructor leading the way, right?

As fitting for the most romantic month of the year, my favorite scene in the story takes place on Valentine’s Day. I hope your Valentine’s Day is a fabulous one, and that you enjoy Livi and Mitch’s journey through their holidays.

And if you’re on the web, I’ll be sharing Livi’s pasta recipe on my website, and insider peeks into this story and others. Stop by my website at tawnyweber.comor find me on Facebook at facebook.com/tawnyweber.romanceauthor.

Halloween

“MY, OH, MY, talk about temptation. A room filled with sexy sailors, an abundance of alcohol and deliciously fattening food.”

Olivia Kane cast an appreciative look around Olive Oyl’s, the posh yet funky bar that catered to the local naval base and locals alike. She loved the view of the various temptations, even though she knew she wouldn’t be indulging in any.

Not that she didn’t want to.

She’d love nothing more than to dive into a forty-ounce margarita and chow down on a plate of fully loaded nachos. But her career hinged on her body being in prime condition, so she’d long ago learned to resist empty calories.

And the sexy sailors?

One of those, she wouldn’t mind indulging in. Livi barely kept from pouting. She was pretty sure a wild bout with a yummy military hunk would do amazing things for her body, too.

It wasn’t willpower that kept her from indulging in that particular temptation, though. It was shyness, pure and simple.
