This one was difficult to read and not due to the writing. It is always hard to handle a disability, but in this case you have a guy that has been a SEAL and a hero trying to cope, but not seeing himself as not entirely whole. In steps, Mia and she wants to help, but still sees him as capable. As well as a neice that needs him. ( )

Book description
ALL HE COULD SEE WERE CLOSED DOORS...
Navy SEAL Frisco Francisco’s leg -- and career -- were shot, and he had every intention of wallowing in self-pity. But there were two complications: his five-year-old niece, whose sudden presence in his life added "daddy" to his resume, and his comely next-door-neighbor, who wouldn’t take no for an answer.
...TILL SHE KICKED ONE OPEN
Teacher Mia Summerton knew that what Frisco reallly needed to do was focus on the positive. She was going to teach him what he could do. Was it possible that loving her was on the list?

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0373077599, Paperback)

She couldn't mend his wounded body . . . but could she heal his heart? Being a navy SEAL is more than a career to Alan "Frisco" Francisco -- it is his whole identity. But now a bullet has threatened that existence. How can he function in combat when he can barely walk? Still, despite the doctor's warnings, Frisco is determined to achieve a full recovery.

But the unexpected appearance of his abandoned niece leaves Frisco with little time for anything but dealing with the five-year-old girl. He knows even less about parenting than about how to mend his broken body. And there is no way he's going to accept offers of help from his neighbor Mia Summerton. He doesn't need anyone's help . . . not to care for his niece, not to learn to accept his limitations and certainly not to fall in love.
