He was used to getting what he wanted. And what he wanted was her.
As an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Specialist, Dillon Slater had one of
the most dangerous jobs in the military. Now, he’s enjoying the pace of
life in Shelter Bay, where he teaches high school physics. He still gets
to blow things up, but as the school basketball coach he also gets to
impart leadership skills. His latest minefield: fifteen-year-old Matt
Templeton—and Matt’s irresistible mother…Claire Templeton moved her troubled teenage son to the small town of Shelter Bay to escape the bad influences at his school in L.A. But when his attitude earns her a visit from the handsome basketball coach, she wonders if this role model might be too much of a temptation—for her. Because though she isn’t looking for a relationship, she can’t seem to resist Dillon’s playful charm. But what she doesn’t realize is that Dillon isn’t playing games—he’s playing for keeps…
I was happy to read this book and meet Dillon Slater who retired from the military to start his life in the small town of Shelter Bay. He took a job that transitioned soldiers from the battlefield to the classroom. He became a teacher and a basketball coach. The team has had many loosing seasons and the boosters were interested in turning that around. The get a new player moving to the area who happens to be an amazing player. They put all their hope in Matt Templeton but Dillon isn't sure that he wants to start him because he wants to make sure that everyone is a team player. Claire Templeton is starting over in the small town of Shelter Bay because she just lost her mom and her son was getting into trouble at the old school. She moved both of them across the country to start over. She is working on her glass work and supporting her business while getting Matt settled into the new school. Dillon is very helpful to the settling process but finds himself drawn to Claire. Claire refuses to get involved with her son's coach because she doesn't want other mothers on the team to think that her son is getting better treatment. It is a tough fight but you have to pick up the book and find out for yourself what happens. I hope that you enjoy this book and the others in the series as much as I have. This one was a great book that was hard to put down and I read it very quickly. It is a wonderful summer read and I look forward to the next in the series.
