Major Craig Walker is an elite, decorated combat pilot.
He's an eagle in the sky, a free bird and busy killing in the name of democracy.
His social life is as good as dead. Women are just a source of momentary physical pleasures as he has no time to build any semblance of relationship. Even during tour breaks, a soldier is never really off duty outside the base. He's on call, anywhere he is. Uncle Sam’s number is a 24-hour b*tch of a hotline.
He likes fast women. No pressure. Not much effort. No drama. He's with them for only one reason, to pound the bloodlust out of his system using their beautiful bodies. Come and go. That's his deal. Fast women want the same. They like to wear his monster down. A big challenge as he's an insatiable f*ck after each tour. His life is a routine of flight missions and casual encounters with women and he likes to keep it that way--uncomplicated and free.
Now he's on his RNR again, a short break in between flying the hostile skies of the Middle East. All he wants is to have an all-nighter with three hot babes.
What he finds is an alluring young woman sleeping like an angel in his bed.
A hot virgin.
Now he avoids the type like a plague. Too much work, too much drama and he's got limited time to spare. But she's so beautiful he just has to keep her for a night, then avoid her in the morning.
That's the plan. A plan gone wrong.
Nine months later, it's definitely May Day for Major Walker.
He meets his G.I. Baby.
A SUPERMODEL

Worse, she becomes a challenge for men - receiving a record number of proposals (most of them indecent) since her faux pas. Needing a break, she goes off to Italy to play maid of honor to her best friend. Finally, some downtime at last. Or so she thinks.
A BILLIONAIRE
Lonzo Vitale's name exudes power. A billionaire by his early thirties, his undeniable good looks and dynamism inspire awe and grabs headlines. The European business sector follows his boardroom moves, usually a step or two behind, while his bedroom conquests provide fodder for gossip pages. He is a man who vows never to settle - a true serial monogamist. When his best friend suddenly decides to tie the knot, Lonzo agrees to be his best man, in hopes of changing the groom's mind about the pitfalls of matrimony.
A STORY MADE IN TABLOID HEAVEN.
On the eve of the wedding, they find themselves entwined on a bed, naked and with no recollection of how they ended there in the first place.
Or that their naked pictures will be selling tabloids weeks later.
