Sometimes, the person who challenges you the most is precisely who you need. Tyler Colton is exactly the irritating, overbearing take charge, livin' large kind of guy that Heather LaBianca has been dodging her whole life. So, why exactly does her heart beat faster every time Officer Colton enters the room? Tyler wasn't exactly looking for happily ever after when his best friend got married and started hanging out with a new group of friends. The curvy spitfire blonde Italian who had as many jokes as a standup comedian intrigued him, but his natural charms seem utterly ineffective for this fiercely independent woman. When personal tragedy strikes in Heather's life, Tyler gets a chance to be Heather's real-life knight-in-shining-armor. Even as he's helping Heather's dreams come true, Tyler realizes that this puzzling enigma of a woman is quietly helping him exorcise the nightmares of a mission that went horribly wrong. Will he be brave enough to accept her love so that they can move forward together through joy and tears? If you like heroines with an independent streak a mile wide and tough military men, you'll love Joy and Tiers, the third clean and wholesome contemporary romance in the Hidden Beauty Series.
