Age Gap Romance Age Gap Adult Contemporary Romance

Summary

After spending my life as a military brat, I craved stability. As an adult, I buried my roots deep and refused to budge. No matter what storms came my way, I refused to blow away. I loved my life. I loved my job. I loved my family. And yet, I would have given it all up for one man. If he had been anyone else, it would have been perfect. After spending half my life in the Marines, it was desk duty or retirement. My best friend, and old Sergeant, convinced me to retire and promised to help me with the transition. I could keep building houses, and learn to be a civy again. All under his watchful eye. Enroute to his place in Miami, I was stranded in an airport overnight. I thought I was too old to find love, to have a family. And then my eyes landed on her. The time flew by as we explored the airport together, talking and laughing. We flew out separately, with promises to reconnect on the other side. It came sooner than planned. When I ran into her at her father's house. I was mostly sure he would be okay with me dating his only daughter. I just had to convince her of that fact. An age gap, father's best friend, romance. This is the first book in a standalone contemporary romance series.
