I received a copy of this book for my honest review from Net Galley.
This was a really great novel. It's the first a new series by Helenkay Dimon. It features Hailey a young woman who's lost a lot of people in her past due to her loved one serving indifferent branches of the military. She has sworn off all military men. She inherits land from her Uncle Rob and everyone wants it including Sawyer. Sawyer is a retired Marine who has come back to start a gun range and security business on the property his friend Rob promised him. Of course he has no viable proof that Rob promised him this land and his attraction to Hailey is overpowering his though process on the land.
I loved this whole book from beginning to end. It was probably not meant to be read in a day but I just did that. The last couple pages of the book made me melt. Wonderful characters and wonderful story.

Sawyer is ready to take his military training and experience to build a firing range outside of San Diego and has found the perfect piece of land. If only he can convince Hailey to sell it to him. Hailey lost her father figure to war so being around Sawyer reminds her of what was lost but the piece of land that she inherited is apparently a prime piece of real estate because Sawyer is not the only one sniffing around. Sawyer was not expecting a woman as beautiful as Hailey and as hard as he wants to concentrate on just his future business, Hailey is getting under his skin. Can they start a relationship but keep business out of it? Really great, sexy story with some fun secondary characters. So excited for the rest of the series.

This book moves very quickly. I suppose that I am more accustomed to reading longer books so this is probably a me issue.
There is drama but it is not angsty or over the top. Both main characters are grown ups and behave as such. My biggest issue was that I know about all the characters but I don’t know them. I feel like I know the missing character better than the present ones.
The sexy times are well done. Definitely an easy read

When Hailey lost her parents one man came forward and became her family. Now all she has left of Rob is his land. Many have approached her with their dreams of developing the land. Sawyer and Rob shared the dream of creating a shooting range facility on the back of his property, but Rob was killed before anything could be finalized. Sawyer needs to make this plan happen so he can provide for those he cares about, and he needs to keep his attraction to Hailey out of it.
Hailey seems to be a lot of people’s rock, but doesn’t seem to rely on anyone herself. I loved her whit, and the quick comebacks she had for Sawyer. Sawyer has taken on the role of caring for the family he has created. He is a man of few words and maybe fewer emotions, letting only a few trusted in. He is a man who thrives on trust. When they give into their attraction it is almost combustible. Their steamy scenes, even the lesser steamy ones, were page turners. They were filled with emotion along with the steam.
Just as wonderful as the relationship between Hailey and Sawyer it is their relationship with their friends that really made me smile. These secondary characters are not flat, they have dimension and at parts play a very crucial role to the story. We have been introduced to many characters that could someday have their own book. I myself am looking forward to the next installment where Jason and Molly take center stage.
A great new series that I plan on following until the end! I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley and this is my honest review.
