Description:
A whirlwind affair…or a headlong plunge into the deep end of forever?
An In the Line of Duty Short Story
As lifeguard Jenny Anderson keeps one eye on the rambunctious kids at the community pool, she can’t help but keep the other one trained on the gorgeous, tattooed hottie peeling his shirt off near the lounge chairs. And she isn’t the only woman at the pool drooling.
Right about the time her gaze drops to check for a wedding ring—which, from bitter experience, she knows doesn’t mean squat—one of those kids plows into her from behind. Sending her in an ungraceful belly flop right into the deep end.
When the sleekly tanned lifeguard literally falls into his arms, her mouth opening and closing like a landed fish, Ving Duncan’s special forces training kicks in. It’s clear she needs air, and she needs it now.
The moment their lips collide, he wants her, all strings attached. By the time he finds out who she is—his comrade’s little sister—it’s too late. He’s hooked, and he’s already planning his next mission: to get her to say yes. To a date. Maybe to forever…
Warning: A whirlwind romance so hot and breathless, it could leave you needing a little mouth-to-mouth…
Review copy provided for an honest review

This is one of those books that as a reader makes me truly happy. In book two in this series, the hero and heroine meet on a plane on the way to the wedding of their siblings. His Strings To Pull is the story of how their siblings met and it is such a good story, so in reality this short story is book 1.5 in this series.
I’m a sucker for love at first sight romance and that’s exactly what happens to Jenny Anderson and Ving Duncan. A chance meeting at the community pool when Jenny literally falls into Ving the sparks begin to fly and it become apparent that these two were bound to be together. Ving wastes no time making Jenny understand he wants to date her but he wants more and while Jenny is skeptical at first due to some previous bad dating history even she has a hard time not admitting there is something special between them.
This is a super short story but one that will give readers who haven’t read this story a look into the characters and their lives and readers who have read this series the background on Jenny and Ving we all so desperately craved. A whirlwind romance with a bit of humor and a whole lot of sexiness makes His Strings To Pull and awesome addition to this series!
