Synopsis:

'A Marriage of Convenience' by Aliyah Burke

A Naval pilot, a one night stand and years later a second chance, can they make it work this time?

Pharmacological student, Ayanna Barker, was working hard to give her and her son a good life. Sure, things were tight, but it was all worth it. The man who had given her her child has also given her the best night of her life…and she had never forgotten him.

US Navy pilot Lieutenant Michael Taylor loved the rush his job gave him but even that took a back seat to how he felt about the lovely Ayanna Barker, but circumstances keep them apart.

Four years later Michael sees her at a different military institution. Ayanna is more beautiful than his vivid memories had recalled her to be, but now she has a child…she has his child. Determined to be a part of her life, and his sons, Michael moves them in to his home and marries her. Each day reawakened emotions burn hotter and hotter as they try and keep things under control.

But can Michael and Ayanna realize what they share is so much more than just a marriage of convenience?

'In the Arms of a Pilot' by Jennah Sharpe


She found the touch she missed in another pilot, but the guilt could prove too much to bear.

Emmeline hated the thought of her man going off to war, but that was something she needed to keep to herself. When she received news that he was MIA, she didn’t fall into grief as she thought she should have. Instead, she went looking for the arms of another man.

She found the touch she missed and craved in yet another RAF pilot. Ethan gave her everything her body missed and craved. But overcoming the guilt was another matter…for both of them.

'Double Time' by SL Majors
Well, it is for a good cause, Micah Collins tells herself. Queen and Country and all that, even if her suggestion is a bit over the top…
Micah offers big money for the local military fundraiser if she can purchase the services of two of England's finest soldiers.
And who could be better than devilishly handsome captain Trent Williams and sexy-as-sin captain Clayton Blackwell to help her get rid of the pesky problem of her virginity?
Since it's just for the weekend, Clayton and Trent, mates since university, agree to the unknown woman's odd request, not realizing they'll all get a lot more than they bargained for…

'From the Ruins' by Bronwyn Green

Cardiff Wales, 1943—Moira Boulton never expected her instant attraction to the American she meets thousands of miles from his home. Not in her home town. Not in the midst of a war. But there's no denying the desire burning between her and the foreign soldier, David Webber.
They barely have time to explore the explosive force between them when an air raid drives them to take shelter. Alone in a dark cellar, with bombs dropping overhead, they take comfort in each other and their undeniable passion.
When David disappears without a word, Moira is left to wonder, if a passion that burned so bright was nothing more than a pleasant diversion or if they actually can salvage a relationship from the ruins.

 



 

SRR GRADE B+

If you like your anthologies sizzling hot, than Camouflage Hearts by the following talented authors: Aliyah Burke, Jennah Sharpe, SL Majors and Bronywyn Green is sure to please! What makes Camouflage Hearts unique is that every story centers on a serviceman or servicemen. All the stories are well written and extremely sexy!

Aliyah Burke kicks off this anthology with my favorite story, A Marriage of Convenience. This is a really sexy and romantic story about a one night stand that turns out to be so much more. This short story could easily have been made into a full length book. There’s so much depth in this story and the emotional and physical response that Ayanna and Michael have towards each is what makes A Marriage of Convenience a real page turner. Aliyah Burke wrote an amazing short story and what an incredible way to kick off this fantastic anthology!

The next story, In the Arms of a Pilot, is by author Jennah Sharpe. Here is another emotional story, this time about a serviceman and his sudden overwhelming attraction to a woman who is promised to another. Both Ethan and Emmeline can’t deny what is between them but they both must overcome the tragedy and loneliness of the war. In the Arms of a Pilot is a very sensuous read and it fits perfectly in this anthology.

S.L. Majors erotic contribution, Double Time, is next. This story is H-OT! Micah Collins is ready to rid herself of her virginity and she decides to accomplish that in a big way. She donates a large sum of money to a fundraiser to help her country and in return, she receives the “service” of two fine servicemen! This story is sure to please those in the mood for a really erotic story.

From the Ruins by Bronwyn Green is the last short story in the Camouflaged Hearts anthology. This is my other favorite story. It’s sweet, romantic and very sexy! Moira and David never expected to meet and fall in love in such a turbulent time. Neither can deny their attraction towards each other and not even the spoils of war can keep them apart. This is such a moving story and the perfect ending to thoroughly entertaining and sexy anthology.
