More Than a Spirit Josie Malone

Home from her Army Reserve tour in Afghanistan, she's divorced, unemployed and dealing with her unruly, spoiled six-year-old. Sergeant First Class, Ann Barrett has enough on her plate. The last thing she needs is a ghost playing matchmaker. Not ready to trade in her fatigues for a civilian job as a high school teacher, Ann applies for a position at the Army Reserve base. Issues arise when she meets her new boss, former Army Ranger, Master Sergeant Harry Colter. He came to Fort Bronson in Seattle to escape the grief when his best friend died in an ambush but hasn't realized he didn't come alone, or his buddy is playing 'Cupid'. Many things enrage Ann, like her ex-husband and the family that puts the fun back in "dysfunctional." However, in order to handle what comes now, she must deal with her past, her child and the 20-year-old secret she learns about him. Will a woman with enough baggage to fill a footlocker and a man who knows life comes with no guarantees save each other and find a future?
