Guest Author Annabeth Albert and Favorite Military Romance Books
Greetings! I’m so thrilled to be here celebrating the release of TIGHT QUARTERS which is book six in my Out of Uniform SEAL series.

This book has more military/action scenes than some of the books in this series, and I loved doing the research Continue Reading

One of the characters has been chosen to participate Continue Reading
First Kiss Excerpt! Wheels Up by Annabeth Albert
Tipping his head back, Wes brushed his lips over Dustin’s chin. Huh. Guess that answered the kissing question. “You’re a good friend,” Wes whispered. “I’m really not,” Dustin said softly.

You knew what would help tonight.” Wes stretched, eyes telegraphing his intent long before his head moved, and Dustin had plenty time to pull away. But he Continue Reading
