Synopsis: A Heart of Gold
Sophia Anderson takes care of everyone but herself. She will stop at nothing to keep her family safe. When she goes searching for her runaway little brother in a bad part of town, she becomes the one in need of rescue.A White Knight
Navy SEAL, Mason Gault, faced many dangers while in the line of duty. No matter how bad a mission has gone, he finds solace in three things: His family, friends and the waves of the Pacific. When he hears a woman’s screams for help, he charges in to save her without a second thought.A Dangerous Love
Sophia is burdened with scars from her past. Mason understands that empowering her spirit is just as important as protecting her well-being. As their love and passion soars, so do threats against her. Can Mason continue to be the compassionate white knight that she needs, while ensuring her safety?
Review: Sophia is a strong young woman despite the trials. Her father abandoned her and her brother Billy while their mother was fighting against cancer. After the death of their mother, Billy is placed with a foster family since Sophia can not take care of him. She has to earn more money to rent an apartment and regain custody of Billy. Billy’s foster parents are nice but he seeks his father and, for this, fugues.
One evening, seeking Billy in a bad part of town, Sophia witnesses a rape. She intervenes to save the young woman and finds herself in very bad shape. Fortunately Mason comes at that time. He notes that Sophia thinks of others before herself: she is wounded but is concerned for the young woman she has just saved and wants to go in search of her brother. He accompanies her to the hospital (he poses as her fiancé in order to stay with her). From that moment, I think he is already hooked. However, their story will start slowly because Sophia has some difficulties to trust (since her father abandoned her with her little brother and her sick mother, it makes sense).
Subsequently, well we have: love, sexy scenes (oh yes), friends, a team (Mason’s teammates), danger, suspense…
I immediately appreciated the main characters Sophia and Mason. I also liked to discover Billy, Sophia’s friends and especially Mason’s teammates! I have a big crush for Drake but I think that the next book will be dedicated to Clint. Am I right or wrong? We’ll see 🙂 I’m a fan of Caitlyn O’Leary’s writing and I’ll follow this series. I think I’ll read her other series, The Found, while waiting for the others 🙂

Oh I am a sucker for a SEAL team Cass! I love series that feature a member of each team, so this is definitely something I need to read. Can’t wait to meet Sophia and Mason (and of course Drake)!
