SAWYER I live alone on this mountain for good reason. The isolation keeps everyone safe—especially from me. My hands are built for fixing broken things, not holding something precious. Then a storm dumps Rosa Carter right into my world, all wild curls and fearless grins, fixing her van like she was born with a wrench in her hand. She should leave as soon as the roads clear. Instead, she's in my cabin, in my bed, looking at my scars like they're part of a story worth hearing. When she trusts me with something she's never given anyone else, I know I'm in trouble. The kind that makes a man forget every reason he built walls in the first place. But wanting her feels like standing on the edge of an avalanche. One wrong move and I'll destroy the best thing that's ever happened to me. ROSA I've spent years on the road, fixing other people's breakdowns while avoiding my own. My heart? That's the one engine I've never let anyone get under the hood of. Until I meet Sawyer Lewis—six-and-a-half feet of brooding mountain man who rescues me from a snowstorm and refuses to treat my independence like a problem to solve. He makes me want things I've never wanted. Makes me feel safe enough to choose desire over doubt. But just when I'm ready to give him everything, he tries to make my choices for me—decides I'm better off without him. He's about to learn that I don't back down from a challenge. Especially when that challenge is a stubborn, beautiful man who thinks protecting me means pushing me away. Some storms change everything. This one gave me him. A steamy, emotional instalove romance featuring a curvy virgin heroine who knows her own mind, a mountain man hero with a protective streak a mile wide, and a love story that proves the best things are worth fighting for. HEA guaranteed!
