13 Sexiest men in uniform you’ll ever read about

There are a few things that will make nearly all women stop whatever they're doing and stare:

1. Babies
2. A 50% off sale on designer shoes and handbags
3. Hot dudes in uniform  

Is it cliche? Yes. But it's true. For the most part, women love men in uniform. (And babies and shoe/handbag sales...but that's a topic for another list, another day.) The romance genre is positively brimming with hot heroes in uniform. There's so many, in fact, that sometimes it can get overwhelming and you're not sure which one you should pick. Because we're givers here at Romance Rehab, we want to help. With that in mind, we've put together this suggested reading list of heroes who'll rock your literary world as easily as they rock their uniforms. You're welcome. Here it goes (in no particular order):

(Note: for the purposes of this list, dudes who wear shoulder holsters and flack jackets count as uniform-wearing hotties. Why? Because it’s my list, that’s why! I can make up any rules I want. No one is the boss of me.)
