 HOT ALPHA SEALS: Military Romance MEGA SET








Anne Elizabeth’s The Kiss of a SEAL


 Special Warfare Operator 1 (SO-1) Lincoln “Link” Tyler has found The One, the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. He can’t keep his hands off of her; and to make the matter more difficult, the thought of her is consuming his whole world. His focus needs to be on his career, but he cannot lose her. Should he feel guilty that she belongs to someone else or should he sweep her off her feet and make this lady his love forever? 
    Jessa Grainger has the ideal job, helping Navy SEALS optimize their physical abilities. She works at the Gym on the Amphibious Base, but working one-on-one has its disadvantages especially when you fall in love with your assignment. Losing your heart to a SEAL when you’re engaged to a Special Warfare Combatant-craft Crewmen (SWCC) man is an even bigger problem. 
    Can one kiss change your world? What would you do for love? Or for the forever you crave with The One?

Enough of a tease???  yah?  you can pick this boxset up NOW!

*jumps with excitement*  I'd like you all to welcom my newest book boyfriend Link to the bear rug!!! 


t'irla:  Introduce yourself to my followers Link!

Link:  I'm  Special Warfare Operator 1 (SO-1) Lincoln “Link” Tyler 

t'irla: oohh I just love a man with a title and umm...muscles!  *touching a bicep*

t'irla:  So Link share, what do you look for in a woman?

Link:  Just so you know, I’ve never been one to shrink from a pretty woman, but I believe true beauty comes from a strength inside. That’s what I always looks for. Also, a strong and independent lady that can tell me what she wants and can stand up to me, and can take it when I call her on her own baloney. 

t'irla:  *grins broadly*  Oh my!  you suddenly became even more attractive!  Now, Now no blushing...I'm just asking what my followers *need* to know:)

t'irla: So, How do you define love?

Link:  That’s a big question! Probably there are a lot of people that have different answers for this question. For me, I believe love is about both a chemical and emotional connection. There is a strong physical link, sure, and there is also an emotional—sort of a spiritual plane—that just the two of you sit on. Together, you bring out the best of each other. Separately, you can feel that power no matter where you are on the planet. Love isn’t just for a moment, but for the rest of eternity.

t'irla:  *nods sagely* I so agree.  It sounds like you have given it some thought

t'irla:   What  initially attracted you to Jessa?

Link:  *happy smirk* Jessa radiates this indomitable strength and she generously teaches it to others. That’s what I initially fell in love with about her.

t'irla:  If you cannot be with Jessa, what would you do? *clears throat* keeping in mind I could be available ...no no just kidding *grin*

Link:  *smiles then gets serious* Stay single. If I had to wait until we were both old and gray, I would. I don’t want to. So, I’m going to fight for her, because that’s what you do when you love someone. But, the real question is...is she going to fight for me?

t'irla:  *mumbles* would be crazy if she didn't

t'irla:  What do you consider your greatest strength?

Link:  I’m dedicated. Whatever I set my mind to, I make it happen.

t'irla:  On the flipside of that, what is your one great weakness?

Link:  Loving someone strongly, that can be a major weakness. If my home life doesn't get settled, I can’t reach my career goals or move forward. Even knowing this fact, I cannot turn off my love for her. The heart is a real ball-buster when it comes to a decision. None of us gets much choice, once the decision is made. We have to step up to the challenge of loving someone and make it work, or accept the pain and suffering. I plan on making it work.

t'irla:  I think you have a very mature look on relationships. How do you picture your life with The One?
Link moves uncomfortably on the bear rug and looks down.  

Link:  Passionate. I’m sure we’ll have some heated fights and some thermally-hot make-up sessions, but the fact we can be honest with each other means we have an opportunity to build something great. Secrets build-up in a relationship and your significant other needs to be not just your Teammate, but also your dedicate ally.

t'irla:  WOW! I think the fire just burned higher!  Thanks so much for joining me here on t'irla's talk and please drop by again!  I would love to hear how your life is going...and feel free to bring any of your hunky friends with you:) 

Link:  Thanks t'irla, will do...I brought along a big of a teaser for your followers so they can share my story. 

Excerpt


CHAPTER ONE

Night enveloped their naked bodies. It wasn't much in terms of cover, given their current unclothed state, but neither of them cared. Their passion was like an endless circle that seemed to begin again only a few seconds after it stopped.

Her eyes went to the windows. Starlight streamed through the large window allowing diffused light in, but still hiding the outline of their sweat slick bodies entwined in abandon. She couldn't help wondering if someone would catch her one of these days.

She and her lover were tucked into the back of the gym—away from prying eyes and taking advantage of the plush workout mats. The cushion was better than the best feather bed and she wasn't just saying that because she and her man had been testing it out as of late.

The workout center on the Naval Amphibious base in Coronado, CA, was atypical of normal places, because it was dedicated exclusively to active duty SEALs for their continuing success and fitness. With three years under her belt working here, Jessa knew the ins and outs of the building and even had her own key. But base security could be a bit dicey after nine p.m. What was it that they would say: all good Civilian Consultants should be tucked into bed after dark. She wasn’t sure that she could abide by that advice or that she was actually ‘good’…especially, in reference to following regulations. With other stuff, well, she had been rocking one particular SEAL’s world very well.

“Stop day-dreaming, unless you’re thinking about me,” said a husky baritone voice of Special Warfare Operator 1 (SO-1) Lincoln “Link” Tyler right before he kissed her. The mind-blowing sweep of lips and tongue transported her. Only he could do this to her. Every kiss reminded her of their first spark. His eyes locked to hers, and the way his gaze embraced her heart and seared her soul was almost like Link was inside her before their even lips met. The experience was intense and completely unique. It made her realize in every fiber of her spirit that no one else’s kiss had ever been like that and the memory would be seared in her being.

No one else had ever captured her heart or commanded her body this way. No man until him. Maybe that was why she had dared to date him, breaking her one golden rule of never dating where she worked. Lincoln broke all the molds. He was the exception to everything, and he was changing her life…drastically. Today, had been the moment she knew he was the one for her.

Desire washed over her and her body responded, arching into his eager arms as her mouth shifted over his. Pleasure flooded Jessa’s senses; she lost herself in the wanton hunger of his touch, which made Link chuckle. “That’s more like it. I thought I had lost my touch.”

“Never,” she admitted wryly, though she knew he could have any woman he wanted. His eyes seemed to trail her, and only her, when she was in his proximity. A lady never missed a heated connection like that. Besides, there were no rules to preclude the contact between a Navy Consultant and an enlisted man.

His fingers played over her skin and her body clenched and released aching for more. She could barely contain the passion that surged through her as his lips laid a path of heat down her neck and his hands stroked over her. “We could get caught…”

“Doesn't that make it more sexy?” he whispered as his tongue flicked out and teased the sensitive flesh between her breasts before it traced over her nipples. When she squirmed to get away from the overwhelming sensations, he followed up by raking gently over the stiff peaks with his teeth. 

Her breath caught. “Lincoln. Please… I could get caught; sure it would probably only be a slap on the wrist, but neither of us needs it. Let’s go out to the beach, no one would get mad if we were caught out there. Everyone has sex on the Amphibious Base. Just last week, I saw Donna and her husband… Wait, that might take us out of the mood. Let’s not think about that.” She braced her hands against his shoulders and pushed. It was a half-hearted attempt and her body language conveyed it. 
“Did you have sex on the beach before us? With him?” Link raised an eyebrow.

The ‘him’ that her lover was referring to was Scott ‘Goody’ Goodman—the man she was engaged to. In essence it was a camouflage technique, so that men didn't hit on her. Goody was a real person, a friend from college and they were really engaged; but it wasn't a true man/woman relationship at least not by her standards. It was more like two friends that were…safe port in a storm without the benefits. She shook her head. “No. I didn't break any of the rules…until you.”
