The Marine's Last Chance

There are two sides to every story... He broke her heart... Chief Petty Officer Mitzi Zahn, USN, is not the kind of woman to run from heartache. And she didn't run from HIShospital room screaming--she only wanted to. With her brother dead and Bruce badly injured, the last thing Mitzi expected was for him to call off their wedding. Postpone it, yes. Take time to mourn and to rehab his injuries. Yes. And yes. But call it off? Damn straight there was an exchange of angry words and tears. She left in a daze to bury her brother. And when Bruce didn't come to his senses, she took an assignment that allowed her to stay close to home and family. She broke his heart... Marine Raider, Gunnery Sergeant Bruce Calhoun, USMC Spec Ops, lost more than just his best friend in that ambush overseas. The moment Mitzi ran from his hospital room he knew he'd made a mistake. But he couldn't even look her in the eye. She was smothering him with care and concern he didn't want and didn't deserve. He should have died. But he didn't. And she deserved better than a broken man. After two years of licking his wounds, Bruce is shuffled off to his hometown recruiting office to work along side the girl he should have married. Can she forgive him for breaking her heart, not once, but twice...
