Desire Me (Bachelors of Fern Haven, #1)

Jackson has the perfect setup going for him: a job he loves, Friday night poker with his four best friends, idyllic surroundings and no woman to mess it up. Until Lillian moves her gorgeous behind into his line of sight. He can't resist watching her, even as he promises himself to keep his distance. He doesn't do relationships and she has the look of a woman who will demand nothing less.
Lillian was getting ready to give up on the idea of a last summer fling, when an explosive encounter changes her mind. Jackson makes it clear that he is not looking for a relationship, and that suits her plans, since she only has an itch to scratch, right? With the heat between them rivalling that of the African summer, she starts to wonder if a fling will ever be enough, no matter how hot it burned.
Fern Haven is a secret kept by the locals because they love its peace, seclusion and natural beauty. When that peace is disturbed, Jackson and the guys realise that military training alone may not be enough to deal with this invasion of their privacy. Drawn into the mystery, the women they meet may hold the key to finding the culprit and the reason behind this threat to their tiny community.
