Order Received. Asi Mi Gusta!, #6

Always look after the ones you love. After the sudden, devastating death of his best friend, Rear Admiral Holsinger, Navy elite Elijah wants nothing more than to return stateside to stand by Holby's grieving family. But military orders are unyielding. When Admiral Logan coldly informs Elijah that he is being deployed off-continent-and that the notification duty is being handed to the crassest officer on the base-"pissed off" doesn't even begin to cover the fury burning in Elijah's chest.
Holby was his brother in arms. He deserved better. Instead of a funeral, Elijah is sent straight back to the volatile, chaotic war zone where his best friend was just killed. Through two grueling years of survival, despair, and bloodshed, only one thing keeps Elijah sane: a fierce determination to make good on a final, sacred vow. He survived the mission, and he finally has his ticket home. The moment he tracks down Holby's widow and she opens the front door, surprise washing over her face, the world stops.
Looking into her amazing, expressive cinnamon-brown eyes, the true weight of his deathbed vow hits him like a freight train. He promised to look after her, to protect her, and to keep her safe. But as a raw, undeniable attraction ignites between them, Elijah realizes that honoring his word is going to be one hell of a ride... and the ultimate test of his honor. For a full list of content levels, please visit the author's official website.
