The Seal's Valentine was tender,funny,family story and baseball all thrown in together.

Caydan wanted to make the baseball team with his friends. Even with his father having been a baseball player Caydan was not very good. Caydan is having a hard time with all
the changes in his life. When he doesn't make the team he runs away and gets lost in swamp.

He notices Brynn's car is still thier after everyone had left except the two coaches. His friend Jason is the police chief. Tristan had words earlyier with Brynn and new Caydan had runoff. So they both went searching for them.
Brynn had runoff trying to find her son but got lost herself. She was greatful when Tristan had found her. She was 2 miles away from her car. Jason found Caydan.
Tristan had been good friends with Mack growing up. He had a hard time believing Mack was guilty of cheating. He went over to Brynn's house to see if she needed anything.
He ended up spending a few days putting up Caydan's birthday Fort up for her.
Tristian exwife just moved with her new husband and moved his son to the west coast and he had a hard time trusting in a relationship.
Brynn 8 months pregnant did not want to date anyone but her neighbors kept trying to matchmake with Tristian and Brynn.
I like the characters and how they were all dealing with different life problems. The humor. It is a fast quick read that lets you escape into thier lives.
I was given this ebook to read in exchange of honest review from Netgalley.
