But her passion for the body doesn't extend into her personal life after a hellish experience in college left her with nowhere to turn but her work. After several criticisms about the lack of passion in her sculptures, Shannon is determined to face her fears and take desire by the balls. A one-night stand should do the trick.
2nd Lt. Brody Essex is an active duty Marine with one goal come home, get rested, go back.

Okay, Brody was just yummy! He was confident, compassionate, perceptive, and straightforward – everything Shannon needed and could appreciate.She was a sweetheart.

Her Marine Always a Marine series Book 5 edition by Heather Long Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Brody Essex isn't buying into this whole 1Night Stand happily-ever-after fantasy the rest of his comrades have fallen into, but when one of his buddies has to bail on his date he agrees to take his place. After all, as far as he can tell 1Night Stand is all about hooking people up for sex and he's not about to turn down that sort of opportunity but what he doesn't expect is for his date to be so utterly charming - or so horribly emotionally damaged. It's going to take all his Marine training to help her get past her hang ups but it will definitely be worth it in the end
Shannon Fabray is an artist. A sculptor, to be exact, but her work lacks passion and all the counseling in the world isn't helping her get past her emotional blocks. She's hoping that a date through 1Night Stand will solve the problem but what she doesn't expect is a man like Brody who sees through her discomfort and feeling of helplessness and willing to do whatever he has to in order to help her heal.
Shannon's nervousness and preference to not be touched are huge indicators that she's not comfortable with this date but Brody quickly puts her at ease with his blunt honesty and reassurances that nothing will happen that she doesn't want to happen. Eventually he manages to get her to open up, by promising to break the legs of the man who hurt her - and Brody's certain that there's a man involved. Shannon feels ridiculous confessing her hang ups and fears to Brody but he's been trained to recognize the signs of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and he has an idea of a way to cure her but it's going to be a test of his willpower because he has to let her have complete control of the evening as well as letting her command him while he poses for her. And maybe if he's very lucky, she'll recognize her inner passion and he'll be lucky enough to be on the receiving end.
HER MARINE is probably one of the sweetest, most thought provoking stories in the ALWAYS A MARINE series. Shannon's fears and hang ups are heartbreaking but Brody's so matter of fact and honest in how he deals with her that it helps her get past her own reservations and keeps her from backing out of the date. He's secure enough in his masculinity that he's unafraid of baring his body while she sketches him and then gives into her own deep-seated desires. I love that Heather Long applies a term normally reserved for military personnel to a civilian and has a Marine help her recover from something all the counseling she's gone through hasn't been able to fix.
Heather Long's respect for the military men and women in uniform shines through the pages of her stories and there's a lot of great insight into the sort of trials and tribulations soldiers go through when they return to the United States. This series is powerful and highly memorable - and in general a pure delight to read with characters who will charm their ways into your heart.
Be sure to experience the full impact of the ALWAYS A MARINE series. Here are all the titles (so far) in order

Brody is on leave and filling in on a blind date for a friend who was suddenly called away. Shannon is an artist who sculpts marble males, but whose work has been critiqued as being cold. He wants a nice evening out, with the likelihood of no strings sex. She wants to move past the fear of touching that an assault in college left behind. Brody recognizes the symptoms of PTSD and, fortunately for both of them, Brody has just what she needs-control-which he willingly gives to Shannon.
This is a very moving and sensual short story. There is a followup book, Her Marine Bodyguard, which looks just as good. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and have it on my reread and recommend lists.
This is the story that is tied with "Tell It to the Marine" as being my favorite. This story made me cry both times I have read it and it probably will each time I read it.
Brody is our Marine of this story and he is amazing! Brody is the only one of group that agreed to sign up with Capt. Luke Dexter that is still an active duty Marine. When Damon tells Brody that Matt can't follow through on the date, he steps up to fill in.
Shannon is Brody's date for the night and she is a sculptor that is trying to regain her life after a traumatic event during college. She begins translating the song that was being perform to Brody without knowing that he was her date.
There are so many things that I love about Brody and Shannon. I love that Brody picked up on Shannon's nerves and figure out that she had been hurt. I love that he gave the control to Shannon in what happened that night. I love that he kept building Shannon up and wouldn't allow her to talk bad about herself. I love that Shannon began to feel more and more comfortable with Brody as the evening went on. I love that Shannon took that control and used it to help herself feel more confident. I love that when Shannon finally told Brody to help her, he did. Like I said, there are so many things that I love about these two.
I also love that we find out that Damon lied to Brody and this was his 1NS all along after Brody confessed that he didn't want Shannon to know that he was a stand in. I LOVE that Matt played along and got Brody to do it thinking he was helping a fellow Marine!!
I have liked each of the 1 night stand books. This one makes a great story. A perfect match. Addresses a modern problem of rape and sexuality. and ptsd.
This is 1 of several Heather Long stories I just LOVE. (Most of her stories are actually too short for rate a 5* from me.) This is a great story about a man more interested in pleasing the woman he's with, than he in just getting laid.
Good book
This story is for those happy, hopelessly romantics who love a tender, wonderful romantic story garnished with just a slash of explicit sex. Fans of just hardcore sex can better seek somewhere else.
Okay, Brody was just yummy! He was confident, compassionate, perceptive, and straightforward – everything Shannon needed and could appreciate.
She was a sweetheart. I really liked her, but she had some issues. I liked that Brody was patient and understanding, and that they were able to work through them together.
A sweet read with a little bit of spice!
