** Note: This pen pal military romance was reissued with an updated book cover and second surprise epilogue! Previously called "Lawfully Gifted-A Lawkeeper Christmas Romance" These standalone sweet, clean love stories follow a team of soldiers that were once stationed in Afghanistan, bound by friendship. They can be read alone but if you read them together, their tales are so much richer.
