What the Heart Holds Safe (Delta Force Book 4) Read online

  A couple looked pissed.

  Everyone knew that the Marines’ combat training had graduated a few women, but that was just jarheads on the ground.

  This was Delta. The Unit was Tier One. A Special Mission Unit. They were supposed to be the one true bastion of male dominance. No one had warned them that a woman was coming in.

  Just one woman, Kyle thought. The first one. How exceptional did that make her? Pretty damn was his guess. Even if she didn’t last the first day, still pretty damn. And damn pretty. He’d bet on dark eyes behind her wraparound shades. She didn’t take them off, so it was a bet he’d have to settle later on.

  A couple corpsmen came over and carted Ralph Something away even though he was already sitting up—just dazed with a bloody cut on his forehead.

  The Deltas who’d come out to watch the show from a few buildings down didn’t say a word before going back to whatever they’d been doing.

  Kyle made a bet with himself that Ralph Something wouldn’t be showing up at sundown’s first roll call. They’d just lost the first one of the class and the selection process hadn’t even begun. Or maybe it just had.

  “Where’s check-in?” Her voice really was as lush as her hair, and it took Kyle a moment to focus on the actual words.

  He pointed at the next building over and received a nod of thanks.

  That made watching her walk away in those tight leathers strictly a bonus.
