Patty Campbell

Heart of a Marine Patty Campbell

Single dad and wounded warrior, Dwayne Dempsey, signs a construction contract with Marla Dannaher, a beautiful, sexy and demanding woman. The last thing he needs is her breathing down his neck every step of construction. She's bossy and is not interested in his advances, but oddly that makes her even more desirable to him.

Marla is a serious business woman. She leaves flirting and romance up to her twin sister Charlene. Marla's goal is to build a solid financial future and control her own destiny. Dwayne's teasing and sexual innuendos drive her to distraction, but his raw physical strength and masculinity are overpowering. Too bad love scares them both.

Dwayne's ex-wife reappears and demands custody of their daughter, Amber. There is no way Dwayne will allow it. He's caught between protecting those he loves and driving them away.
