Subject: Evan Huntley, Special Ops
Status: Believed to have been killed in action…until now!
Three years is a long time. Long enough for Tatum Huntley to leave heartbreak behind for the idyllic town of Sweetheart, South Carolina. Long enough to start over. Yet not long enough to forget the devastation left behind when he died. Her husband. The man whose touch haunts her… And the man who just walked back into her life.
All Evan Huntley wants is to get the woman he loves back in his arms…and his bed. While her love for him never died, Tatum can’t—and won’t—forgive Evan for letting her believe he was dead. For leaving her alone. But can she resist giving in to the exquisite passion that still burns between them?
Can’t resist a sexy military hero?

Mills & Boon Blaze’s bestselling miniseries
continues with more irresistible heroes
from all branches of the armed forces.
I’m so excited to be visiting Sweetheart, South Carolina, again! What’s not to love about a small Southern town with quaint charm, great friends…and very hot men? From the moment Tatum Huntley popped onto the pages in The Risk-Taker I knew she was hiding a story behind that sarcastic wit. And like any good writer, I wanted to figure out what made her that way. I wasn’t quite prepared when Evan, a badass on a Harley, showed up after three long years of her thinking him dead. He nearly sent strong, independent Tatum to her knees with hope and fear and longing.
No one escapes life without being touched by grief. We’ve all lost someone we cared deeply for…a grandparent, parent, lover, friend. Heartache is a universal emotion. However, it can help us appreciate the people and time we have on this earth. I don’t know anyone who would balk at having a few more hours—or even minutes—with someone they’ve lost. But the reality isn’t quite so idyllic when Evan roars back into Tatum’s life. Losing him devastated Tatum. And letting him in once more means risking that pain all over again. But how can she resist falling for the man she’s always loved?
Bring Me to Life is all about the power of second chances and seizing those miracles that we’re all blessed with on occasion. I hope you enjoy Tatum and Evan’s story! I’d love to hear from you at kirasinclair.com, or come chat with me on Twitter.
Best wishes,

I’d like to dedicate this book to my parents.
My life took an unexpected turn in the middle of writing this book, and I wouldn’t have been able to get through each day without their unconditional love and support. I’ve always known I was blessed with the best parents in the world. Growing up, I didn’t always make life easy, but they never wavered in their support of me and my decisions…even when they didn’t agree with them. They’ve shown me, by example, what a good parent should be, how a good person should live and what a strong relationship should look like.
Love you both!

THROUGH THE RAINBOW slivers of colored glass, Tatum Huntley watched soft, fluffy snowflakes drift down from the darkened sky to blanket the dead grass surrounding the church. The scene was beautiful, just like everything else about Hope’s wedding day had been.
She wanted that for her friend, the perfect day to celebrate the love she’d found and fought for with her husband, Gage.
Behind Tatum, the background noise of her friends’ chattering voices was both soothing and a little abrasive. They were helping Hope gather the last of her things so she and Gage could head out on their honeymoon.
Any other time, Tatum would have been right in the middle of the laughter and friendly ribbing, making an inappropriate comment or slipping a sex toy into Hope’s luggage as a joke—anything to have her friend blushing.
But tonight Tatum couldn’t muster the energy to pretend everything was okay.
There was no way for her friends to know how much this day ripped at raw emotions. Hell, she hadn’t realized it would affect her this much.
It wasn’t as if she and Evan had had a perfect, white, church wedding. They’d gone to the courthouse with a handful of their friends gathered around as witnesses. Sure, she’d worn a white dress, but it had been off the rack and nothing like the confection Willow had designed for Hope. And her bouquet had been a simple mix of spring flowers they’d picked up at a local florist on the way.
Far from Hope and Gage’s extravaganza. Although, she probably should have assumed...she’d loved Evan with every single cell in her body, just as Hope loved Gage. Their days definitely shared that.
But Hope, Lexi, Willow, Macey, none of them even knew she’d been married. And that was the way she wanted it.
