Jessica has another book out! It released last week and today I have an excerpt to share with you. The book is in my Review TBR pile and I am looking forward to reading it. But first I'll need to stock up on Kleenex as Jessica's books always rip my heart out.
The second book in the emotional new Homefront series from USA Today Bestselling author Jessica Scott A terrible loss… Captain Sarah Anders lost her husband to the Iraq war and has nearly lost the career she loves. Sent to Fort Hood, she only wants to do her job and take care of the daughter she’s raising on her own. She never counted on running straight into a memory she’d tried to forget. A love he never forgot... Captain Sean Nichols never got over Sarah. He simply tried to forget her amidst the war and the chaos of combat. But when she’s assigned to investigate his unit, he comes face to face with the woman no war or any amount of time could make him forget. A dark secret… As Sarah gets closer to the truth, Sean must accept that actions he took during the war may end the tentative love building between them. And even if Sarah can forgive him, Sean may never be able to forgive himself.

“I’m sorry you have to go through this alone.” “Thank you for saying that.” She blinked quickly, and she heard a rustle of blankets. Her mind detoured into a very unprofessional space.
“Did you just get into bed?”
He laughed quietly. “Yeah. Are you?”
“Yeah.”
There was something illicit in that simple agreement. Illicit and enticing all at once.
“So we’re in bed together?”
“Ha ha ha.” She cleared her throat, though, as a fresh heat traced over her skin, warm and needy. “Tell me more about Kearney.”
“Damn, and here I thought you were going to ask me what I was wearing to bed.”
She hesitated. Only for a moment, not giving herself time to talk herself out of her next words. “What are you wearing to bed?” A silence that let her mind wander.
“Sweats.” He paused. When he spoke, his voice was husky and thick. “Tell me what you’re wearing.”
“Yoga pants and a T-shirt,” she said softly, her cheeks turning hot. Was she really having this conversation?
“Sarah?”
“Yeah?”
“This doesn’t feel wrong to me. I just wanted you to know that.”
