"Extremely hot, with lots of men in uniform!"

Roxie McNamara is starting over in England with her 2-year- old son, Aaron. When she visited last Christmas, and again later for her cousin Nikki's wedding, she decided it would be a good place to raise her son. An ocean away from her abusive ex-husband. What she wasn't looking forward to was running into Boothe O'Brien. That run-in was inevitable, since he was Nikki's husband's best friend. He drove her crazy. He was infuriating. He made her feel things she vowed to stay away from. Like satin sheets and steamy sex. But Boothe has other ideas.

Boothe O'Brien, Marine extraordinaire, is known on base for his sexual prowess. The women flock to him -- all except Roxie. Boothe knew she'd be a challenge when he first met her at Nikki and Will's wedding. Is it the thrill of the chase that's got him thinking of her night and day? Or is it something more?

Yum! Take a feisty female Texan and her irresistibly cute son, add a gorgeous Marine that just drips sex. Then throw in a threatening, abusive ex-husband and some dangerous Marine maneuvers, and you have "One Of The Few." Alli Nicole (pseudonym for a mother/daughter writing team) pens a "do-not-miss" story with great characters and lots of men in uniform! It was wonderful to see the transformation of Boothe's character -- from womanizer to head-over-heels in love. Roxie grows as well, to overcome her past hurts in order to love again. I highly recommend this book, and will be on the lookout for the next tale from Alli Nicole.

NOTE: This is the second book from Alli Nicole, and while the publisher states that this book can stand alone, I strongly recommend that it's predecessor, ALWAYS FAITHFUL, be read first.

Summary

Boothe O'Brien was a ladies man in every sense of the word. At least until he met Roxanne McNamara, the gorgeous, red- headed cousin of his best friends. Not quite sure who grabbed his heart first, Roxie or her young son, Boothe falls head over heels in love for the first time in his life.

Now the question is...can he handle it?
