Features forced proximity, extra spice, grumpy mountain man, runaway bride, dual v-cards! ROSE I ran from my wedding, leaving behind a controlling ex and his suffocating world of crime and privilege. But getting lost in a mountain storm leads me to something far more dangerous than the wilderness - a man who's more beast than human, with hungry golden eyes and hands rough enough to mark. He orders me to leave his mountain, but when his massive body pins me against the cabin wall to protect me from danger, I realize I don't want to go anywhere. Every touch ignites a fire I never knew burned inside me. He claims he's waited centuries for his mate... and my body screams that it's me. HUDSON Two hundred years of solitude have left me wild, untamed. Then she stumbles into my territory in a rain-soaked wedding dress, all soft curves and defiant eyes. Her sweet scent drives my bear side crazy with need. One taste of her skin and I know - she's my mate, the one I've waited centuries to claim. But her past is hunting her, and my possessive instincts threaten to consume us both. I should send her away before I lose control and take her in ways that will ruin her for any other man. Instead, I find myself pulling her deeper into my savage world, where only I can mark her as mine forever. In a cabin deep in the wilderness, an inexperienced runaway bride and a beast of a man discover an attraction too powerful to deny. But with Rose's obsessive ex determined to reclaim her, their primal passion could cost them everything.
