Tirza Schaefer: Romance Author & Goddess Facilitator

​

To upend a career, a life and all you've ever known is a brave thing to do. Especially when you are successful at what you do. From bank manager to being an assistant at a supermarket is quite the plunge but to suddenly be saddled with two strange teenagers for a long time while the only family they have, their father and uncle, are deployed on a secret op overseas is quite the leap.

And it's not an easy one, especially when the lady in question is also scared and confused, not only about her own situation and concerned for the welfare of the children, but also having her emotions in turmoil over a man she has just met. Or two men. And then the father is missing, the other one is acting out and the only friend she has is their commander who turns into a friend, also overseas.

Yes, it's quite twisted but when you read it, this story will make you laugh, touch your heart and for the more sensitive souls amongst us, will even squeeze out a tear or two from your eyes. A lovely little story of courage, confusion and commitment that will stay with you long after you turned the last page.

Funny, Hot & Deep!

​

I don't know how many different versions of taghag she comes up with, just to make sure no one thinks she is "one of those." But Bailey falls in love with teenage siblings before she has to admit that her heart has been captured by one annoying-as-hell Seal. Can that end in any other way than total disaster and heartache? Find out yourself, you'll love it!

You'd think that one over-protective Seal father has matters in hand when it comes to his children's schooling. However, that is not the case. Turns out, the children have inherited that protectiveness and try to shield their father from worries which leaves them alone at the hands of a hateful teacher.

Until Bailey arrives on the scene, that is. She is new on Cordoba Island and works at the local supermarket. Quite a fall when you consider she was a bank manager only a week ago. Or so it would seem. But Bailey is on a mission for which she is willing to sacrifice in the short-term for longterm gain. And she does it in style.

I so enjoyed the quirky teenagers, her big heart and the father's and uncle's sometimes rather overbearing manners. Quite a challenge to walk the tight rope between being open and concealing true intentions. And when Bailey is stranded on her own with the two teenagers, it shows her spirit and sense of responsibility, as well as her genuine love for the children in her care.

Of course, Bailey can dish out as well, even though standing up to Seals who are hellbent on breaking her to ensure the children's safety isn't a small feat. And the fear is real. To throw in some realism into this fictional world, Navy Seals are trained war machines with high intelligence. If they want to intimidate someone, I am sure that's easy for them to do. So I liked how the author showed how scared Baily was in that scene and how much it took for her to stand up to them, knowing they could see how scared she was.

And although the entire situation went over her head and landed her into way more than she had bargained for, I loved so much how she faced everything in order to protect the children and keep them as happy as she possibly could despite her own fears and worries.

In the process, she learns how tight-knit and devoted the military community can be, and how they support each other during hard times. She has people to lean on and still manages to reach out to someone else who also feels alone and needs a friend. I found that very touching indeed. Needless to say, I loved this book!
