Just Realized (Ward Sisters #6)
Lucy Gage

Some life lessons have to be earned the hard way.
Nina Jacobs has had some rough patches in life, and men have always disappointed her. The day Sergeant Owen Nichols drops into her world, the last thing she expects to happen is happily ever after.
Owen has a bad habit of being the rebound guy. When he meets Nina, he recognizes the moment where preparation meets opportunity, and he takes his shot.
Owen is determined to prove worthy of Nina's trust, and they form an unshakable bond of friendship that she can't believe—and he dares not presume—is more. Can Owen find the courage to leap before she rediscovers her heart with someone else? Or will Nina realize that she already has everything she needs with the man who has become her best friend?
