SET IN STONE is a Contemporary Romance and a
companion novel to Rachel’s bestselling novel CRAZY GOOD
Synopsis:
There is something all
too vague about second chances. What happens when your utterly perfect first chance
never really ends? What if it’s stolen?
Bull-nosed attorney
Morganna Sterns knows what she wants. Self assured, powerful, and independent,
she finds herself struggling to find balance between honoring what has been
stolen, and deciding if her second chance is going to end just as tragically.
Steven Warner is a Navy
SEAL with nothing to lose. His overt humor and charm paired with his lethal
skill set make him a perfect catch--for the right type of woman. His world is
littered with relationships, but only one stands the test of time. Competing
with a ghost is hard. Especially when that ghost is a teammate: his brother at
arms.
It’s not, “it is what it is.” It’s
what you make it. What you, and only you decide it should be. Navy SEALs never
make the same mistake twice.
Will Morganna?
Excerpt:
“I’m going to take exactly what I want from you right now. It
doesn’t change anything.” I shake my head to drive the point home. “And
tomorrow will be the same as any other day before this.” He smiles with his
eyes and reaches up to turn his baseball cap backwards. I’d think he was a
trying to be a college-aged crony if I didn’t know what the tattered hat meant
to him.
“Your move, darlin’,” he says, folding his arms behind his
back, like a child being told not to touch the glass figurines.
Running my fingers up his slick arms, I watch my hands glide
over corded muscles that are still hot from his boxing workout. When I meet his
eyes, there’s an anticipation there I’ve never seen before. He waggles his
brows. I laugh, but it does nothing to kill the desire coursing through my
veins. I slide my fingers under his shirt and drag my nails across his rippling
abs. I feel him blow out a breath and I smile, but only to myself. These
muscles, this stomach and chest and arms, aren’t like Alex’s. The similarities
give me pause. Laying my forehead into his thick chest, I sigh.
“You’re him.”
“I’m not him.”
“But you could be.”
“Just pretend I’m not. Play pretend.” As expected, he’s given
me exactly what I need to get through this moment. I look up at him and I
see…Steven. His humor that blazes through his smile. His life. Wrapping my
hands around his neck, I place my lips on his and kiss that man like I’ve
dreamed about for years. I feel his hands on my lower back pulling me in and up
for a better angle. I open my mouth and breathe his scent in to memorize it. He
tastes exactly like I imagined he would. Mint flavored gum and man. Sweat
mingles with the leftover cologne on his shirt and I pull his wet body tighter
against me, hoping I smell like he does when I pull away.
He takes off his hat and drops it to the floor by his feet,
and cradles my head, my face in between his hands. He kisses me with his eyes
slightly open. I like it. It turns me on even more to know that he wants to see
me kiss, so I keep mine open to watch him. Steven drags his fingertips down the
sides of my neck and I can’t help it, a moan escapes. I feel his smile against
my mouth. He’s mighty full of himself right now. His mouth slides against mine,
slowly and then more frantically. It’s then that I know I need to end our
fevered hunger before it goes any further.

I'm currently reading this book now and loving it, a definite 5 star book so far. It's taps on all your emotions. While reading I'm looking things up in Crazy Good (5 stars) as I go. You do not have to read Crazy Good to read this one but I like to reread sometimes about previous characters. I will have a full review up shorty but I'm loving the heck out of this book and think you will too! And if you haven't read Crazy Good DO IT!
About CRAZY GOOD:
Before there were bikers, or fighters, or even good
old-fashioned jerks, there were Navy SEALs. They put the bad in badass because,
well…it’s their job.
Navy SEAL Maverick Hart has everything. Women want him. Grown men idolize him. Little boys want to grow up and be like him. The job, the glory—it’s all his. Not because it’s handed to him…because he works hard for it. The second his sights lock on something, he owns it—or destroys it. Unfortunately he does both at the same time.
Windsor Forbes only takes calculated risks in her profession and in her personal life. After being left at the altar by the only person she’s ever loved, the very last thing she’s looking for is a relationship—especially the insane brand an arrogant Navy SEAL is offering. Hesitant, yet trusting to a fault, she gives in.
She knew she shouldn’t take the chance, especially a second time, but love is irrational and their love is perfect, infallible. Or so she thought…
The downfall to having everything is you have that much more to lose. A man like Maverick can’t have it all without something slipping out of grasp.
Crazy people perish for love.
Good people live for it.
Love doesn’t die. No matter how many bullets you put in it.
*Due to sexual content and graphic language this book is intended for readers 18+*
