A chance encounter in a taverna with a sexy Navy man leaves her angered but intrigued when he walks away.Lieutenant Carlos Mornaric is done with women, after his last girlfriend stepped out. He’ll use his year in Crete to advance his career instead. A hot, flirtatious woman in a bar reinforces his plan—he doesn’t need the drama.
