22851930A Santini In Love

Book 6

Genre: Military Romance/Romantic Suspense

Blurb:

She was the last woman standing.

Madison Baker was born and bred to be a Marine. When a roadside bomb ends her

first deployment—not to mention her career—she is left to pick up the pieces of what is

left of her life. She’s returned to Oceanside to regroup and move on. It doesn’t mean

she’s ready for a relationship, even if a particular Santini has different plans.

Love happens when you least expect it.

When he first met Madison back at the Academy, Dante Santini is sure the woman was

put on the earth to irritate him. She’s prickly and mouthy. She always thinks she’s right.

Worse—she almost always is. She hasn’t really changed over the years. One

disagreement ends up with them lip locked and very nearly falling into bed, Dante

discovers he might need to rethink his first impression.

When Madison is convinced she witnesses a murder, the only person who believes her

is Dante. Together, they sift through the meager evidence, trying to unearth the secrets

someone is trying to hide. Neither one of them expecting it would draw them closer—or

that a killer is hell bent on making sure those secrets stay buried.

Book 7

Genre: Military Romance/Romantic Suspense

A crush that turned into love.

Being the only girl in a family with five Santini brothers was never easy on Elena Santini.

She always tried to be faster and smarter to make sure they always took her seriously.

They were always trying to tell her what to do, and worse, who she could date. That’s

why falling for her oldest brother’s best friend wasn’t smart especially when he treats

NCIS agent Jethro Thomas, known to everyone as JT, has always played it smart.

When his admiration turned to attraction a few years ago, he started avoiding Elena. A

guy wasn’t supposed to have those kinds of thoughts about his best friend’s little sister.

After returning from an undercover assignment, and about to go on another one, he

can’t seem to resist the temptation. One night with her and he knows he’s lost, but he

JT returns from the assignment with a few more scars, both physical and emotional–but

he survived for one reason. He’s ready to start a new life with Elena, but a dark cloud

hangs over the new love. When small incidents evolve into near death accidents, JT

realizes someone from his past is ready to destroy his happiness, even harm Elena to

23599844One Night with a Santini

Book 8

Genre: Military Romance

He was searching for something that was missing from his life.

Brando Santini is headed to New Orleans to blow off some steam with a few of his

buddies. The respite from his life as a Marine doesn’t really seem to do the trick until he

runs into his college crush, Kaitlin Fitzpatrick. After a little dancing and a few drinks,

they end up in bed together and Brando knows she’s the one for him.

One night will never be enough.

Kaitlin never forgot Brando. She never would have thought the sexy nerd would have

remembered her. More than that, she definitely didn’t expect he would be interested in

seducing her. Their time in New Orleans is intense but much too short. The memories of

his lovemaking leave her counting the days until she sees him again.

A complication neither of them expected.

By the time Brando arrives in Maryland, Kaitlin suspects that their one night together

has left them with more than memories. When Brando insists on marriage, she refuses

on the grounds he doesn’t love her. But what Kaitlin doesn’t understand is that when a

Santini wants to prove his love, nothing will stand in his way—not her five brothers, his

own annoying family, or even the woman he adores.

About Mel

a2c77-mel

From an early age, Melissa loved to read. First, it was the books her mother read to her including her two favorites, Winnie the Pooh and the Beatrix Potter books. She cut her preteen teeth on Trixie Belden and read and reviewed To Kill a Mockingbird in middle school. It wasn’t until she was in college that she tried to write her first stories, which were full of angst and pain, and really not that fun to read or write. After trying several different genres, she found romance in a Linda Howard book. Since the publication of her first book in 2004, Melissa has had close to sixty romances published. She writes in genres from historical suspense to modern day erotic romance to futuristics and paranormals. Included in those releases is the bestselling Harmless series. In 2011, Melissa branched out into self-publishing with A Little Harmless Submission and the popular military spinoff, Infatuation: A Little Harmless Military Romance. Along the way she has garnered an epic nomination, a multitude of reviewer’s recommended reads, over five Capa nods from TRS, thirteen nominations for AAD Bookies, and made the USA Today bestseller list in 2013 with The Santinis. Since she spent her childhood as a military brat, Melissa swore never to marry military. But, as we all know, Fate has her way with mortals. After twenty years as an AF spouse, she and husband, a long with their brats, both human and canine, are now happy they get to pick where they live. She lives in the middle of wine and horse country in Virginia and shops for million dollar homes in Hawaii.

A crush that turned into love.

Being the only girl in a family with five Santini brothers was never easy on Elena Santini. She always tried to be faster and smarter to make sure they always took her seriously. They were always trying to tell her what to do, and worse, who she could date. That’s why falling for her oldest brother’s best friend wasn’t smart especially when he treats her like a sister. That is, until she gets him alone in her apartment one night.

One night in Heaven.

NCIS agent Jethro Thomas, known to everyone as JT, has always played it smart. When his admiration turned to attraction a few years ago, he started avoiding Elena. A guy wasn’t supposed to have those kinds of thoughts about his best friend’s little sister. After returning from an undercover assignment, and about to go on another one, he can’t seem to resist the temptation. One night with her and he knows he’s lost, but he has a job to do.

A changed man.

JT returns from the assignment with a few more scars, both physical and emotional–but he survived for one reason. He’s ready to start a new life with Elena, but a dark cloud hangs over the new love. When small incidents evolve into near death accidents, JT realizes someone from his past is ready to destroy his happiness, even harm Elena to make him pay.

 

review4.5 Stars

Elena Santini is just that, a Santini. Proud, confident and brave. A beautiful and sexy woman serving her country as a marine pilot. As bold as any of her brothers, Elena creates an opportunity putting herself in a position to get what she wants. Little did she know she was going to get more than she was asking for.

NCIS agent Jethro “JT” Thomas has a personality that just makes you like him. Loyal, funny and caring the honorary Santini will charm your heart. His job puts his life in danger, but wanting his best friends little sister has his head on the block. Being known for his cool and collected manor, JT gives into temptation that he has been avoiding for years and falls hard.

It’s no secret that my favorite book family is the Santini’s. A family who are proud and honored to serve on many branches of the Armed Forces. Close doesn’t begin to describe the relationships between the Santini siblings, cousins and medley mothers. My favorite thing about the Santini’s is their curse. When a Santini man finds the woman for him, he falls and he falls hard. Melissa Schroeder has made me laugh on more than one occasion it watching these big,strong, military men get twisted over the one they love. Now we see how Elena Santini, the only female of family falls.

Chemistry, passion and loving deep. That’s what the Santini’s are about. Elena and JT were a true treat for the lovers of the Santini family. Their passion built for years and proving they were perfect for each other. Through humor, longing, lust and passion we see the Santini curse hit once again. Falling For A Santini quickly became my favorite book of the series.

A complementary copy of this book was provided by the author/publisher for an honest review.
