Sworn to Defend - Charlee James

Shot during a mission and falling to what he thinks is his death, Branch has one regret....

Navy SEAL Hunter "Branch" Green has one goal when he leaves the military hospital-finally tell the pretty flight medic how he feels about her and her autistic teenage son. He's played it safe for too long, but the mission to win her trust and her heart might be his most challenging yet.

After lifetime of being criticized and disappointed by her family who should have loved her, single mom Hannah Day is fiercely independent. Her walls have walls, and if her son needs anything or something needs doing, she relies only on herself. But the protective, handsome SEAL with a dimpled smile, who has a soft streak for her son a mile wide and a need to help others, is difficult to resist.

Hannah wants to stay strong, but when she's summoned home to Texas for her youngest sister's speedy, high society wedding, something feels off, even dangerous. Can she rely on Hunter's help or will this be one more disappointment for Hannah and her son?
