Tall, Dark and Devastating

Book excerpt: Experience two classic tales of heroes facing the most daring adventure of all—falling in love—from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Suzanne Brockmann’s Tall, Dark and Dangerous series—collected here in one volume! Harvard’s Education Senior Chief “Harvard” Becker believes that there is no room for women in a combat zone. It’s too dangerous, too tough…and with P.J. involved, too distracting. He might respect her sharp intellect and her shooting abilities, but he still doesn’t want the responsibility of making sure she stays alive. But P.J. isn’t a woman who backs down easily, and to her mind, Harvard has a lot to learn. She just doesn’t expect him to be so eager to instruct her on other subjects…like trust, desire and maybe even love. Originally published in 2004 Hawken’s Heart Navy SEAL Crash Hawken awakens in a Washington, D.C., hospital to learn that he is the prime suspect in the assassination attempt on a commanding officer. Charged with treason, conspiracy and murder, he is alone—except for Nell Burns. Nell and Crash have a history—as friends, as lovers. And she knows he could not have committed these crimes. Soon they are on the run, determined to uncover what really happened the night of the attempted assassination. But first they have to survive another day. Originally published in 2005
