Forbidden desire…

Marine Captain Gabe Pennington knows how to keep a secret. He's been in love with his best buddy's wife since they met and he can't forget the stolen kiss they once shared. But now Annie Jennings has been a widow for two years, and Gabe wants her more than ever.

Except Annie isn't ready to say goodbye to her deceased husband. Instead, Gabe can only hope that the searing chemistry between them is enough to convince her to move on. Especially as Gabe still has a secret eating away at him. One that could set Annie free...or destroy her faith in love forever.
