Publisher Description
Can a SEAL without a mission and a widowed baker help each other learn to live again?
Jonah Ferguson never wanted to be anything but a Navy SEAL. But after an injury sidelines his military career, he finds himself back home in small-town Tennessee. Opening a bakery with his best friends and daring to re-imagine his life is a whole new mission, but his biggest challenge yet is sticking to the friend zone with the woman who helped give him new purpose.
Two years after losing her husband to a traumatic brain injury, baker Rachel McCleary needs a change. With the proceeds from the sale of her business, she's exploring what a new life would look like. For the short-term, it means helping one of her former students make his fledgling business thrive. And hopefully adding some benefits to the friendship that helped bring her back to life.
All Rachel wants is temporary, and that's the one thing Jonah can give her. But when the trouble that's stalked his business from the start lands her in its crosshairs--and the hospital--he can't deny that there's nothing short-term about his feelings. Determined to protect her at all costs, he enters into a dangerous race to neutralize the threat before it torpedoes everything he holds dear.
Customer Reviews
Stirred Up by a SEAL
A*R*C for honest review with no compensation Received from BookSprout
Stirred Up by a SEAL is book 3 in the Bad Boy Bakers series by Kait Nolan, a standalone but reading in order gives you a better understanding about the mystery surrounding the bakers…
Up next is Jonah and Rachel’s story which we has seen hints of this story from the other books. You get mystery, danger, threats, therapy, romance, family, page turning and more…will these two finally acknowledge the underlying chemistry between them? Only time will tell…
Can’t wait for Cash’s book!
Can they uncover secrets and face their future?
Stirred Up by a SEAL is the third book in the Bad Boy Bakers series. The romance stands alone, but there has been an overarching storyline that could be beneficial to read in order. Jonah and Rachel have been best friends that have helped dig each other out of darkness, so when she asks him to expand their friendship to something more, he doesn’t refuse. But they have to navigate emotions, her wanting to start her life with him, and elements of danger stalking the bakery. Can they uncover secrets and face their future?
I really enjoyed reading this book! This series has been full of danger and uncertain emotions, love triumphing over evil, and this book was no exception! I was drawn in right from the very beginning (okay, honestly from the epilogue from the previous book), and needed to know what would happen next between Rachel and Jonah! Rachel had survived her first love dying, so she was such a strong individual, and I loved that knowing that life is short, she went after and fought for what she wanted! I loved that she knew Jonah so well, too. Jonah was this ultimate protector, putting everyone else’s needs above his own, and I really liked him. He made a few silly decisions here and there, but his intentions were good. I loved them together. I loved their passion, but mostly I loved their connection. It felt so authentic and real. There are quite a few secrets revealed in this book, as well as some new dangerous elements that were unexpected. I loved this book, from beginning to end, and I seriously can’t wait for more from this author!
Great Read
Team Jonah all the way, I’m so happy he finally got his HEA with Rachel! The characters continue to build and the mystery behind the break-ins and attacks is finally solved… and I didn’t see it coming how it played out (no spoilers here). A great end to the trilogy with 2 more novellas to come from these Bad Boy Bakers, I for one can't wait!
