Since Pop died, the farm went belly up, and our rickety old farmhouse is deeper underwater than the Titanic. What’s worse? Turned out he owed money to some bad, bad men. They’re not the kind of people who forgive debts, according to the bricks they keep throwing through our house and car windows. We’re broke, and now our windows are broken. But I’m determined to stay. I’m going to pull me and my sister through this rough patch, even if it kills me. And, yes, my first go at starting a whitewater rafting company on the Battenkill almost does.
A mysterious stranger camping down by the river rescues me from drowning. I don’t know who he is, or what he wants with East Greenwich. I’m not looking for love. I don’t need one more complication in my life. God knows I’ve got plenty.
But I can’t deny the way I feel when I’m with him.

I can’t believe I was dumb enough to let my squad brothers talk me into using my shore leave to come to a town I don’t know, to track down a relative who never even knew I existed. Probably doesn’t care that I do. Hell, he might not be alive. Part of me hopes he isn’t. What if he takes one look at my face and slams the door shut?
And the more terrifying thought: what if he doesn’t reject me? I don’t know how to have a family. Can’t even handle the idea. My heart pounds less when I’m diffusing a bomb. Underwater.
Then a drowning woman comes flailing down the river, and my purpose is clear: she’s the real reason I’m here.
Hearts Adrift: A Navy SEAL in East Greenwich is a steamy, small-town military protector instalove short read and the prequel to the Hearts Adrift series.
