Can't Hold Back — Serena Bell

In this tender military romance from the bestselling author of Hold on Tight -- perfect for fans of Jill Shalvis and Susan Mallery -- a war-shattered veteran gets a second chance at love with the one that got away.

No girl can resist a man in uniform -- especially if that man is Nate Riordan. But after an injury in the line of duty leaves Nate broken, body and soul, the soldier finds himself addicted to his pain meds, with no place to call home. Desperate for an escape, Nate reluctantly accepts a friend's invitation to a new veterans' retreat. Expecting a little R&R, Nate is shocked when the sight of his physical therapist opens up another old wound: heartbreak.

Years ago, Alia Drake fell hard for Nate, but never made her move. Instead, she set up her sister with the sexy, confident military man, a foolish decision that continues to haunt all three of them. Now, with Nate as her patient, she can make things right -- even if it means getting too close for comfort. A healing touch and a little honesty work wonders, fueling a physical intimacy that crosses professional boundaries. This time, with desire in the air once more, Alia won't hold anything back.
