Rescuing Wendy (Volume 8)

Aspen "Blade" Carlisle is the last of his Delta Force team to find love...and he's pretty bummed about that fact. Which might explain why he finds himself chatting up a telemarketer as if she's a long-lost friend. But Wendy is surprisingly easy to talk to, so when they go from occasional calls during her work, to nightly conversations on their cells, it somehow feels right. So right, Blade eventually convinces the funny, sweet woman to meet him in person.

When their first face-to-face meeting gets high-jacked, Wendy Tucker is sure she and Aspen made a big mistake in taking their relationship to the next level. But the man is nothing if not persistent. Before long, Wendy's allowing the handsome soldier to spend more time with her and Jack, the teen brother she's raising, than anyone she's ever dated. Though she knows there are limits to how close she can get to Aspen, no matter how much she likes him. Limits carefully constructed to protect Wendy and Jack from a past they've been running from for years.

But dating Blade means having an entire team of Deltas at her back. Which may come in handy not just with Wendy's past...but also when her brother faces a current threat.
