Dear Reader,

According to the 10-year National Crime Victimization Survey (compiled by the Bureau of Justice Statistics), nearly one million violence-against-women cases are reported every year, and psychiatric professionals state that approximately 31 percent of their caseloads are made up of female patients traumatized by a violent attack.

These startling statistics made me wonder: What happens to women like my friend Brit (not her real name), who don’t reach out for professional help? “The biggest regret of my life,” she says, “is that I tried so hard to pretend I didn’t need anyone or anything that I let the love of my life slip right through my fingers.”

When Once a Marine begins, it seems our heroine might choose that same sad path. She has a lot to discover about herself before complete healing can take place. As for marine-turned-self-defense-instructor Zach Marshall, well, he’s grappling with battle scars and ghosts from his own past, and when he meets Summer Lane, he isn’t sure if he has the patience and selflessness required to be her man. (If you love change-and-grow stories as much as I do, I think you’ll enjoy watching these two learn the meaning of unwavering love!)

I’d like to thank you for choosing to spend a few hours with Zach, Summer and me. Good health and happiness—and hopefully you’ll return for the next books in Mills & Boon Heartwarming’s Those Marshall Boys series, featuring Zach’s handsome cowboy cousins, Nate and Sam Marshall, and the gorgeous gals who will change their lives...if they’ll allow it!

All my best to you and yours,


Once a Marine
