Parasailing and snorkeling for starters, but he expected to add to the list as business picked up. Jared had already agreed that Charlie could offer services at the Duchess Island resort. It was a done deal.
Now… all he needed was some help. A few partners he could trust. Who better to recruit than the men he led who routinely laid down their lives for God and country?
He knew exactly who he’d hit up too: Dex Riley, the sniper who could take out an ISIS general at five hundred yards. Evan Silva, whose loyalty never wavered. Miles Lynch, an explosives expert so calm they called him “Mild.” Jack-of-all-trades Hyland was the guy you called when you wanted something fixed. Jace Custer kept everyone’s spirits up, no small feat when deployed in a hellhole like Iraq. Charlie had a year to convince his hand-selected teammates that paradise was within their grasp.
In a year, he’d no longer be the guy who had to leave. He’d be staying for good. And hopefully starting something lasting with Audra, the sexiest, most adventurous woman he’d ever met. He couldn’t wait to thrill her every day for as long as she would have him.
There’s a snake in garden of paradise. Find out what happens when Charlie returns to Duchess Island in Redeeming Her SEAL.

Theodore Fitzhugh maintained a simple decision-making policy—listen to his gut. And right now it was telling him that this impromptu side trip to the Caribbean had been a good move.
Warm breezes, hot women, and beer could not be beat as a leave combo, and Fitz deserved all three after a particularly nasty skirmish with some ISIS zealots who’d had the bright idea of seizing control of the Karbala airport. After forty-eight hours and a surprise reckoning with the SEAL team Fitz pledged allegiance to, the zealots now had their thinking properly realigned. Mostly because they were all hamburger meat, but there’d been a point when it could have gone the other way.
And that was messing him up.
As the chief source of recon on the mission, he should have sensed the coming ambush that had nearly turned deadly for the wrong side. His gut hadn’t been tuned in when it counted, and that was a problem he had one week to solve.
Fitz followed the crowd of passengers off the plane and onto the tarmac with a fair amount of patience. He’d elected not to wear his fatigues, which meant no auto upgrade to first class, but incognito worked for him on this trip. For the next week, he didn’t want to be a SEAL. He wanted to be a guy with nothing better to do than hang out with a buddy in a place with lots of half-dressed women, and sand that he didn’t have to face-plant into with a scope.
Speaking of buddies… Jack Hyland’s face popped up above the crowd, lazy grin in full force as he held up a sign printed with the words Ready Teddy.
Geez. A guy jumps over the line before the lieutenant commander yells start one time—nearly ten years ago, no less. Was he never going to live that down?
Fitz hefted his duffel bag higher onto his shoulder as he skirted a middle-aged couple consulting a map and gave his former teammate the side-eye. “Appreciate the public service announcement. Chicks dig a guy who’s ready to go at a moment’s notice.”
“Well, seeing’s how you need all the help you can get, you’re welcome,” Jack drawled, still as southern as a cotton ball dipped in whiskey even after a decade in the teams and a year in the Caribbean.
Good to know some things never changed.
