Claimed by the EX-SEALS
About
I came home to uncover the truth about my best friend’s death. I didn’t expect three former Navy SEALs to decide I was theirs to protect.
Seven years ago, my best friend died in Blackthorn, Texas.
Everyone else moved on.
I never did.
Now I’m back, wearing another man’s engagement ring and pretending to build a future with one of the most powerful families in town. The engagement is fake. My reasons for agreeing to it aren’t.
Because somewhere inside the Calloway family’s carefully protected world is the truth about what happened to Emma.
I just need to find it before anyone realizes what I’m really doing.
Then my fiancé shows me exactly how dangerous asking questions can be.
And suddenly, I’m no longer investigating alone.
Logan is the deputy sheriff who sees too much, protects too fiercely, and looks at me like every secret I carry is his to uncover.
Cash is a tattooed biker with a scarred face, a filthy mouth, and enough trouble wrapped around him to warn any sensible woman away.
Santiago is the quiet one. A former SEAL who moves into my house to keep me safe and somehow makes being protected feel nothing like being controlled.
They’ve been brothers since the Teams.
They know how to fight together.
Protect together.
Survive together.
What none of them expected was me.
The closer I get to the truth, the more dangerous Blackthorn becomes and the harder it is to pretend the only thing these three men want is to keep me alive.
And I’m starting to want all three of them.
But someone in Blackthorn has already killed to keep the past buried.
And now they know I’m digging.
Claimed by the Ex-SEALs is a high-heat, small-town Why Choose romantic suspense featuring three protective former Navy SEALs, a fake engagement, a tattooed biker, a possessive deputy sheriff, forced proximity, found family, danger, secrets, and a heroine who doesn’t have to choose. No cheating. No choosing. Guaranteed HEA.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "A great story for sure. [...]
I have given a whole heartly five stars for this because I'm looking forward to going back and reading more of what this awesome author has written, and the fact that this story really was good, it had some grit in it."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "I keep loving every book by Adelaide! Vivienne's story was another perfect example.
The plot had so many of my favorite elements and I loved the main characters. Of course it being a RH/why choose with small town feels, and ex seals for men, made me love it all the more!
In addition there was action, mystery, lots of secrets, and drama. We got some emotional moments, spice, and love. [...]
I absolutely loved it!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "I absolutely loved this book! Adelaide Brook has done it again with another story that completely pulled me in. [...]
I loved the suspense, the twists, the found-family vibes, and of course all the steamy moments. There was so much happening that I found myself wanting to keep reading just to see what would happen next.
Another great addition to the series, and definitely one I’m happy to recommend!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "SCORCHING HOT AND DEEPLY EMOTIONAL
The chemistry in this book is absolute perfection. The steamy scenes are scorching hot, intensely passionate, and beautifully written—they kept me turning pages late into the night. But what makes this story truly unforgettable is the profound love that grows between the characters. It evolves beautifully from fierce, protective chemistry into a deep, unwavering emotional bond built on absolute trust. If you love alpha heroes, high-stakes passion, and an emotional romance that delivers on every level, you need to read this book immediately!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "A truly special RH with tons of love, dangerous villains, and very special epilogues!! I loved every minute!!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "Such a great story. Fast paced and easy to read. Love a good RH and this one does not disappoint!"
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "I really enjoyed this one. I went into it expecting a spicy why-choose romance with three ex-SEALs, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I got pulled into the suspense side of the story too. [...]
Sometimes in why-choose books the men can start to blend together, but that didn’t happen here. Each relationship with Vivienne had a different feel, and the group dynamic was probably one of my favorite parts.
There’s definitely plenty of spice, but it didn’t feel like that was the only thing carrying the book. I liked the mix of romance, protectiveness, tension, small-town drama, and mystery. [...]
If you like protective men, why-choose romance, ex-military heroes, suspense, strong chemistry, and a heroine who refuses to back down, this one is definitely worth picking up."
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "Brilliant.
Fantastic. Riveted from first page to the last. Brilliantly written, couldn't put it down. Can't wait to read anything this author has written."
