This HaBO is comes from Mariah, who wants to find this romance:
Hi, can you help me out finding an old Mills & Boon book?! I know, I know, there are millions of them.
It was the first M&B I ever read. I was about 16, which makes it 24 years ago. Here’s what I remember:
– Hero was a navy seal
– Age gap romance
– Virgin heroine
– She had a stalker and he was protecting her
The first time they did the deed, he pulled out only long enough to change his protection and then slid right back in even though they didn’t go at it again yet. His reasoning was because she might be too sore to penetrate later and this way it would prevent that. It sounded way hotter on the book, I swear.
Does this ring any bells?
This reminds me of Linda Howard’s Mackenzie’s Pleasure. I’d recommend it especially if you don’t find the original M&B.
There was no stalker in Mackenzie’s Pleasure, the heroine was kidnapped and the Navy SEAL rescues her. Afterwards they have insta-sex without protection, and saying more would be a spoiler.
That being said, this story does sound like something Linda Howard would do.
Lora Leigh has a Navy Seals series. It could also be early Lori Foster, I swear I read a Navy Seal series by her also.
Definitely McKenzie’s pleasure and they were terrorist kidnappers as opposed to a stalker. Amazing book.
It sounds a little like “Night Watch” by Suzanne Brockmann

Re: Mackenzie’s Pleasure. The terrorist kidnappers in the beginning were hired by a ‘stalker’
and the remaining 2/3 of the book focus on protecting the heroine and identifying the interested party chasing after her!
Don’t remember age gap. Hot book tho. I have it in paperback. Not M&B cover.
