Title: The Botanist
Author: Dahlia Donovan
Release Date: August 26th, 2017
Genre: MM Romance | Gay Romance





Wyatt ā€œEarpā€ Hardy is a US Navy SEAL. His life begins and ends with those two words. He readily risks himself for the men under his command. Trouble isā€”he canā€™t live for them during a time when military policy weighs heavily on who he is.



Researching for his masterā€™s thesis, botanist Aled Demersā€™s life is about to unravel. One torturous nightmare run-in with drug runners leaves him permanently scarred. He knows heā€™s lucky to be alive after being rescued by a group of SEALs, but suffering from PTSD takes its toll.


The SEAL and the botanist come from different worlds, but one rescue links them together. Can Aled recover enough strength to risk his heart? Will Wyattā€™s leaving the Navy force him to reassess more than just his career choices?

The Botanist is a short story introducing two key members to The Sin Bin series. 






ā€œThereā€™s a boat.ā€
ā€œPretty sure itā€™s a yacht.ā€
ā€œNope. Itā€™s a boat.ā€
ā€œWhyā€™s there a yacht-like boat in the combat zone?ā€
ā€œBetter question: Can we make it go boom?ā€
ā€œWithin the parameters of our war games with the Brits?ā€
ā€œDoes it matter?ā€
ā€œOi, Earp. Get your twats to shut the bloody hell up, will you? Theyā€™re clogging up our airwaves. Are they comedians or soldiers?ā€ The dry humour in Hamish Rossā€™s voice echoed loudly in Wyattā€™s ear where heā€™d been working valiantly to ignore the chatter from his team. ā€œYou listening?ā€
ā€œWeā€™re Navy SEALs, Hamster, not soldiers. We leave that grunt shit to you.ā€ Wyatt couldnā€™t help needling his old friend and SAS counterpart. Theyā€™d worked together multiple times over the years, sharing secrets, wounds, and beers. ā€œHey, Ross, any clue why thereā€™s a vessel in our designated dive area?ā€
ā€œNone.ā€ Hamish spoke in muffled tones to someone, and a long silence stretched before he returned to Wyatt. ā€œShouldnā€™t be there, Earp. Weā€™re picking up four warm bodies on the thermal camera. Theyā€™re not oursā€”or yours. Boatā€™s registered to a local rental company, the owner claims only one person should be on it. A botany student from Cardiff.ā€
ā€œA botany student from Cardiff?ā€ Wyatt glanced over at Trace, who looked almost as confused as he felt. ā€œWhy the fuck would aā€” You know what, never mindā€”what are we doing?ā€


ā€œDahlia Donovan and Hot Tree Publishing bring us a beautiful love story, a short story, involving an unlikely cast of characters. @DahliaDonovan, Exquisite once again!.ā€ ā€“ MainelyStories ā€“ Amazon Reviewer.

ā€œWhat I particularly liked about this book, is what's NOT here, it's what is missing. It is almost clean. Bar one scene at the end, there is no sex! And if you follow my reviews, you'll know I do prefer my books, male/male ones especially, on the more explicit side. So, for me to say that I really REALLY loved it, well, says something!.ā€ ā€“ Mrs M D Attenborough ā€“ Amazon Reviewer.

Dahlia Donovan wrote her first romance series after a crazy dream about shifters and damsels in distress.  She prefers irreverent humour and unconventional characters.  An autistic and occasional hermit, her life wouldnā€™t be complete without her husband and her massive collection of books and video games.
