She loved this place and all the friendships, compassion, and understanding it had provided to so many retired soldiers. She knew that if other American soldiers knew this town existed that they would want to come settle down here and ease their way back into civilian life again.
She knew first-hand how difficult that was. Being an American soldier herself, she understood the sacrifices soldiers made as they served and protected their country. She may not have had family growing up, but the bond shared by soldiers went deeper than state lines, country borders, and politics.
She had set out wanting to make a difference in soldiers’ lives and help them survive as civilians. It was pretty ironic how a bunch of sexy, strong-minded soldiers had helped to save her life and show her that love was indeed a powerful thing. But she wasn’t going to let them saving her and protecting her go to their heads. In fact, she already planned a little day excursion down by the swimming hole, where she would once again win their challenge and have her way with her men.
Cassidy smiled as she took in the sight of the five of them. Cash, Coast, Memphis, Orlando, and Stryker, her very own team, one unit, one family, her American soldiers, to love and to cherish for the rest of her life.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
People seem to be more interested in my name than where I get my ideas for my stories from. So I might as well share the story behind my name with all my readers.
My momma was born and raised in New Orleans. At the age of twenty, she met and fell in love with an Irishman named Patrick Riley Dwyer. Needless to say, the family was a bit taken aback by this as they hoped she would marry a family friend. It was a modern day arranged marriage kind of thing and my momma downright refused.
Being that my momma’s families were descendents of the original English speaking Southerners, they wanted the family blood line to stay pure. They were wealthy and my father’s family was poor.
Despite attempts by my grandpapa to make Patrick leave and destroy the love between them, my parents married. They recently celebrated their sixtieth wedding anniversary.
I am one of six children born to Patrick and Lynn Dwyer. I am a combination of both Irish and a true Southern belle. With a name like Dixie Lynn Dwyer it’s no wonder why people are curious about my name.
Just as my parents had a love story of their own, I grew up intrigued by the lifestyles of others. My imagination as well as my need to stray from the straight and narrow made me into the woman I am today.
