No Chance

"The O.C., Orange County, California, is the land of super-sized yachts, fast cars and seaside estates. And home to Benjamin Cannon and Sidney Picket. Cannon is six feet of ex-Special Forces muscle and boy-next-door charm. He's kicking back on his friend's luxurious yacht, the Texas Goose, owned by oil tycoon Quentin Gosling, while he sorts out life's priorities. He keeps himself busy attending the local community college. He's not busy enough according to Sidney Picket, the ex-Naval officer captaining the Goose. For this no-nonsense go-getter, soaking up the delights of Art History is no way for an ambitious man to spend his time, even one that is so annoyingly attractive. But when Picket's friend and mentor goes missing along with his brand-new sloop, she is going to have to see just what those Cannon muscles are capable of as they get swept up in a fast-paced plot of corruption, international intrigue and piracy, not to mention the odd killing and mind-blowing foreplay.
