A 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.

Falling for a Santini
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
her like a sister. That is, until she gets him alone in her apartment one night.
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

One 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
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.

4.5 Stars
I truly adore the Santini series. There is nothing like the moment when a Santini man stumbles over his self when he realizes she’s the one. Then watching (reading) what these tough, sexy military men will do to prove their love.
Brando and Kaitlin have harbored secret crushes on one another for years. A chance meeting, an amazing night of passion, a stubborn woman and the Santini curse. Leaving more than longing and memories. Giving this reader just what I love about a Santini book.
Brando and Kaitlin’s chemistry sets this novella on fire. Melissa has this amazing way of writing couples that are perfect for each other. Giving each distinctive personalities and charisma, that you can’t help but to like. Humor, meddling families, insatiable passion and romance make you fly through the pages. The Santini Family will suck you into their world!
Readers note: I got a very strong feeling while reading One Night With A Santini that Mel is hinting around at some thing. Maybe spin off to another series. Maybe a prelude to something. I could be wrong and just imagining it. However from what I read it feels like something good is coming.
