I want one reckless night to forget my pain.
He wants one night to feel something real.
When I walk into a soldier’s bar on the eve of my mother’s
funeral, I’m not looking for love—just escape.
Then I see him.
A battle-weary SEAL with dark eyes and a quiet strength who
offers exactly what I need.
No names. No promises. Just one wild, beautiful weekend that
burns bright enough to sear itself into my soul.
But one impulsive night changes everything. And neither of
us realize our story is just beginning.
“Ryan and Paige
have so much chemistry that my kindle almost melted.”
“Steamy, Hot Prequel that leaves your
wanting more.”

I look up to the owner of the gruff voice
and see it’s the man who was sitting on the other side of the bar. In the
light, I can see his features properly, and I like what I see. He’s got at
least a decade on the boy who spilled my drink. Dark hair I want to run my
hands through skims the top of his ears, and unlike the other men in the bar,
he’s got thick stubble coating his chin.
Drawing my attention away from the newcomer,
Drunk Asshole stands up straight and faces him, eyeing him for a beat before
retreating. But Mystery Man grabs his arm before he can leave.
“Apologize to the lady.”
The drunk guy huffs and is about to say
something but clearly thinks better of it. All the fight goes out of him.
Instead, in my direction, he mumbles, “Sorry.”
“You’re a soldier,” the man admonishes him.
“Act like one.”
Once he releases his hold, the man staggers
back to his friends, and I look up to my savior and find dark eyes staring down
at me.
“Sorry you had to go through that. It gets
wild in here.”
“You don’t need to apologize for him.”
He signals over the bartender, who wipes up
the spilled beer with a cloth. “That asshole should’ve bought you a drink to
replace the one he spilled.” He catches the eye of the bartender and asks me,
“You want another beer to replace the one you spilled? Or do you want to leave?
I can walk you to your car if you feel unsafe.”
I run my gaze over him. He’s tall and solid,
with broad shoulders. His blue t-shirt sits snug over muscular arms, and
tattoos snake over his tanned skin. He doesn’t look like a typical military
guy.
The shaggy haircut and facial hair are only
allowed in some of the elite troop units. If he’s military, then he’s special
forces like my brother, Hudson, which is why I know not to ask.
“Why would I be any safer with you?”
He nods once. “Good point. You can go out to
your own car, and our man here”—he indicates the bartender—“can watch you on
the security cameras to make sure you get to your car safely.”
He’s giving me a way out, and I know I
should take it. I can almost hear my mom scolding me to leave. But I feel safe
with him, and if I’m going to accomplish my goal, he’s the one I want to do it
with.
I nod to the bartender. “I’ll take another
beer, please.” The man pulls out his wallet, but I shake my head. “And I’ll pay
for it.”
His gaze meets mine, and he nods again,
slipping his wallet away. He understands why I don’t want a man to buy me a
drink. I don’t want to feel an obligation, even though that’s what I came for.
“And one for my friend,” I add.
Mystery Man raises his eyebrows at me.
“For saving me.”
I give him my first genuine smile of the night.
