Believing in You - San Diego Marines, #4

Dating online should come with a warning. This is my last deployment before I get out and become a civilian contractor in Texas. I'm already there in my mind. That's why I changed the hometown on my online dating profile. Fresh start in a new city. I liked how it sounded. When cute kindergarten teacher, Ivy, slides into my inbox, we hit it off right away. We flirt like two people who have nothing to lose.
I show her all the sides of me and she seems to like them. I like her too. And I can't wait to return stateside so we can explore this connection in real life. But. It's like stepping off the edge of the world when I find out my Ivy is also my best friend's little sister. When I try to break it off, I just can't do it. So I don't. And now I have a decision to make. Step things up with a woman who could be 'the one' and risk alienating myself from my fellow Marines, or, end it and know that while it's the right thing to do, I'd be saying goodbye to a future that looked a lot brighter with her in it.Believing in You is a clean, standalone romance told from both POVs in the first person.
You'll find sizzling chemistry, swoony kisses, and small-town vibes with a close-knit military friend group.
