Securing Jane, an
all-new must read Seal of Protection: Legacy Series Novella from New York Times bestselling author Susan
Stoker and 1,001 Dark Nights is available now!
From New York Times and USA
Today bestselling author Susan Stoker comes a new story in her SEAL of
Protection: Legacy Series…
Over the years, Storm North has witnessed two teams of Navy SEALs under his
command find true love. He doesn’t expect the same for himself. He’s too old.
Too jaded. Too set in his ways. Until a woman who’s been right in front of him
for years manages to impress Storm in a way very few women—or men—ever have.
Jane Hamilton knows it’s ridiculous to have a crush on the charismatic and
handsome commander. She’s the divorced mother of a twenty-six-year-old
daughter. Too old for crushes. Too old for a lot of things. There’s no chance
she’ll ever catch the eye of a man like Storm North.
Until someone delivers a bomb to the base.
As the civilian contractor in charge of the mail room, Jane finds herself
in the direct line of fire, enduring a series of events that leads to a budding
relationship with the very man she’s been longing for. She couldn’t be happier,
and Storm feels the same.
The only one unhappy, in fact, is the thwarted bomber. Unhappy enough to do
something drastic. Now Storm and Jane have to work together to save innocent
sailors—and themselves—from an explosive situation threatening their happily
ever after.
**Securing Jane is the 7th book in the SEAL of Protection: Legacy Series

Excerpt
She was sure
Storm had to have a girlfriend, though he wasn’t married, as far as Jane knew.
She constantly checked out his left hand for a ring.
On the outside
looking in, Storm North was the perfect catch, and she was…simply Jane. Plain
Jane, as her ex used to call her. It was a nickname their daughter had picked
up and taunted her with for most of her mean teenage years.
Raising Rose by
herself hadn’t been a walk in the park. At first, Jake had wanted to co-raise
their daughter, but as the years went by, and he moved from one base to
another, his trips to see her had become fewer and fewer. It affected Rose
greatly. She’d felt abandoned, blaming her mom for the fact that her dad wasn’t
around. She’d snuck out of their apartment all the time in high school and
graduated by the skin of her teeth.
Jane hadn’t been
surprised when she’d moved out on her eighteenth birthday. There were even a
few years when Jane thought she’d wake up to a knock on the door from the
police, letting her know that Rose was dead of an overdose or because she’d
hooked up with the wrong man. But finally, after several painful years for them
both, things had at least leveled out when it came to their relationship. She
was twenty-six, had a steady boyfriend—who Jane didn’t know at all—and was at
least making an effort to be a little nicer. She wasn’t sure what her daughter
was doing for a living, but when Rose did reach out, she was no longer begging
for money.
It was kind of
pathetic that Jane was taking that as a good sign.
In the near
decade that she’d been living on her own, Jane had felt as if she’d been
learning who she was as a woman.
At first she’d
been Jake’s girlfriend. Then his Navy wife. Then she was the woman who’d been
dumped and a single mother. She’d struggled for so long and so hard that she
still felt as if she was finding herself. Which was somewhat silly after half a
century, but there it was. And she wanted to find love again. Find a man who
would support her as much as she
supported him. Wanted someone to laugh with…and do all the naughty things she’d
been fantasizing about for years and years.
But Storm North
wasn’t that man.
Jane knew it, but
that didn’t mean she could stop fantasizing about him.
Pushing the mail
cart down the hallway, Jane felt her heart rate increase as she got closer to
Storm’s office. It was silly. Ridiculous. But she felt as if she was in middle
school again, about to see the boy she had a massive crush on.
But Storm was no
boy, that was for sure.
She entered his
administrative assistant’s office and smiled at the man sitting behind the
desk.
“Good morning,”
she said cheerily.
“Hi, Jane,” the
young man replied with a smile. “Go on in. He’s not in a meeting.”
“Thanks,” Jane told him, hoping she didn’t look as excited as she felt. She
didn’t get to see Storm every day, since he was a very busy man, and whenever
she did, it made her morning.
