Title: The General's Desire
Series: San Diego Social Scene, Book 2
Author: Tess Summers
Genre: Romance, Military Erotica
When it comes to Ron Thompson– his career, the Marines under his command, his women – he’s in charge. Period. The sooner Brenna Roberts realizes that, the better.
Ron
I’m a decorated Marine general who doesn’t have time for relationships. I’ve tried –they just don’t work out—and I’ve never lost sleep over it. Then I meet her. Brenna is easily the most beautiful woman I’ve ever laid eyes on. The first time she blushes under my stare, it’s game over. She’s going to need to learn that I’m in charge and trust that I always mean what I say, because I’m not letting her go.
Brenna
When Ron offers me a drink at the Sterling’s wedding reception, I have no idea that he’s a military star on the rise; I just know he’s the walking definition of masculine—that translates in the bedroom (and couches, counters, tables…) as the best sex I’ve ever had. The more time we spend together, the more I’m convinced he’s hiding something – or someone—and I’m not going down that road again. He can say anything he wants, but actions speak louder than words.
This is Book 2 in the San Diego Social Scene series. Each book is a stand-alone with an HEA and no cheating. It is intended for mature audiences only, as there is adult content and language and situations that some may find offensive.

(4 Stars)
This is part two of a series, but it didn't seem to make a difference that I didn't read book one before diving into this. Just saying.
Brenna has been a widowed for a few years, and is now trying to get back into the dating scene. Not that she was mourning her husband, more her marriage was not all that good and wasn't ready until recently to jump back on that horse. When she ends up going to a friends New Years Eve party, she doesn't imagine that she would meet the man that would change her life forever.
Ron has dedicated his life to the Marines, never married and no kids, has had his share of relationships but never met the one woman that would make him want to change the way he lives his life. When he gets seated at the same table as Brenna, he knows this evening has taken a turn for the best. From there the two try to navigate a relationship, but with the issues they both have, it will take both of them to make this work. Can Brenna get over her trust issues and trust a man who spends most of his time away from home? Will she understand just how important Ron's career is to him?
I found this to be a good read. With lots of drama, some hero saving the day stuff, and really steamy sexy times. I give this 4 stars.
Tess Summers is a former business woman and teacher who always loved writing but never seemed to have time to sit down and write a short story, let alone a novel. Now battling MS, her life changed dramatically, and she has finally slowed down enough to start writing all the stories she’d been wanting to tell, including the fun and sexy ones!
Married over twenty-two years with three grown children, Tess is a former dog foster mom who ended up failing and adopting them instead. She and her husband (and their six dogs) split their time between the desert of Arizona and the lakes of Michigan, so she’s always in a climate that’s not too hot and not too cold, but just right!
