Hard to Lose by K. Bromberg is now live!
New York Times bestselling author, K. Bromberg, brings you a romance about love, forgiveness, and living every day to the fullest.
I know finding and signing a military vet to the agency is a long shot–but it’ll be good press just letting him try out. That’s what I tell my family, rather than admit I can’t get the letter he wrote us five years ago out of my head.
But what I tell the bartender in his hometown is a lie. I know veterans protect each other. So I pretend to be a graduate student.
Sparks. Flame. Fire. I accidentally got in too deep.
I didn’t expect to develop feelings for Gunner Camden.
And there’s no way I can admit to my lies now, not without destroying what we share. So I’ll keep faking it.
***
There are two versions of me: before, and after deployment.
Back then I was a screwup kid. I’d lie, cheat, and steal my way out of everything. My only love was baseball.
After I started fighting, I found out there had been another path for me. One that involved my dream. But by then I had seen too much.
The old me was dead, so I put my dreams to rest, too.
Then Chase Kinkade walks into my bar and reminds me that life is meant to live. No regrets.
Fresh. Happy. Hopeful. I can start to see a new dream, with her.
But sometimes things are too good to be true… and dishonesty is the one thing I can’t forgive.

My Review:
While the other books in this series have definitely been sports romances, this one didn’t quite fit into that. All because Gunner didn’t get to take his life on that career path. Thanks to his stepfather and things that became out of his control. But it still was a really good book and I loved the characters so much. Except for the one thing they did that totally made me so mad! The fact that Chase kept the secret from him for so long, even as she thought about how she should tell him is what made me drop the rating on this down from a 5. I hate when that happens, even if it is a type of device that a lot of authors use to add the drama. And then I hated how upset he got with her about it too. Because honestly, it really wasn’t that big of a deal if you think about it. She never once did anything that would make her keeping that hidden a secret, which she didn’t do the whole time.
But I loved the little town and I loved all the little dates and times they spent together. It was fun getting the meetings between Chase and her sisters and her dad. The banter between all of them is always so much fun and this book was no exception to that. Another great story from Bromberg!
