He rescued her in a blizzard. Now this grumpy mountain commander is about to become her Daddy. When Kayley Banks drives into a Timber Creek snowstorm with a sick baby and nowhere left to run, the last person she expects to save her is a towering, bossy ex–Navy SEAL who answers the door with a gun in his hand and worry in his eyes. Gavin Messer built Haven 7 on Wedding Cake Mountain to keep the world out and his ghosts in. But one shivering woman and her feverish baby crack his defenses wide open. Protective custody turns into shared hot cocoa, one massive bed, and a baby who will only sleep if she’s pressed between them like a little starfish. Kayley swore she’d never trust another man. Gavin swore he’d never fail a civilian again. But when the same shadowy Network that destroyed Gavin’s team comes hunting for Kayley’s baby, this commander will burn the mountain down before he lets anyone take what’s his. Small town. Found family. One bed. And a mountain man who was never meant to be Daddy—until her.
