Shirtless SEALs in a romance novel. For charity.

[The Straight Story]

Shirtless SEALs in a romance novel. For charity.

With budget cuts on the way, does that mean that Navy SEALs will no longer be issued shirts?

Maybe not, but a girl can dream. Or more accurately, 18 romance novelists can dream---and they did. Then they got together and published a collection of short, sultry stories in which the female protagonists take aim in their own special way at the heroic SEALs, whose chiseled faces and brawny physiques cannot obscure their poet souls. Or something like that.

The result: A new book, SEAL of my Dreams.

Honor, duty, courage, passion . . . the men of the Navy SEALs are a special breed of hero, and in these stories by eighteen top romance authors these heroes are celebrated not only as symbols of devoted service to their country but as the kind of man every woman wants to love. They'll rescue a damsel in distress and her lap dog, too. They'll battle hometown dramas and international bad guys. When it comes to giving away their hearts, they'll risk everything.

For those who admire a nice physique, he's fun to look at.

The proceeds of the book are going to a veteran's medical research org.

And, yes, I write romance novels, too.

:woohoo:
