⭐Sometimes we all want to run away and just start over. ⭐ Amanda’s life has never been easy, but once she ages out of foster care, things are looking up. Until she’s in a horrific car crash that results in a ton of medical bills on top of her already overwhelming mountain of living expenses. One night, she comes home from working one of her three jobs to find her apartment robbed. Sick of the dangerous neighborhood and hoping to finally escape her misfortune, Amanda applies for a job as a housekeeper for a private lodge in Alaska. Will is an ex-Marine, haunted by the things he’s seen and dealing with PTSD. He’d hoped to start again and find a new purpose when he decided to buy the rundown lodge in Kenai. Finally, after all his hard work, he’s ready to open the lodge for tourists and hired all new staff. When he meets his new housekeeper, Amanda, for the first time, he instantly feels something for her. He can’t stop thinking about her or about the sadness he sees in her beautiful eyes. As Amanda tries to outrun her hardships and Will finds ways to deal with his PTSD, both are trying to create new lives for themselves – and they may just find one with each other.

⭐What does a cult, an innocent young lady, and an ex- fighter have in common? The Mountain. ⭐ Freya: I was dropped off as a baby and given up for adoption by my birth father. I always wondered why he would just abandon me and if my mother had been okay with getting rid of me. Well, I’m about to find out! I just found my birth mother and I’m climbing on a plane to go meet her. Apollo: I love living up here on the mountain. It’s my way of escaping the past and trying to build a future for myself. As a professional fighter you take risks, but sometimes those risks come with a heavy price. I have things that will haunt me forever, like the man who will never walk or feed himself again thanks to me. When Freya decides to learn more about her heritage, she may have bit off more than she can chew. Things quickly take a turn for the worst. Can Freya escape before they sacrifice her to their beloved Beast? Hello Love, This is NOT a shifter story. It’s a steamy, short, love story, with some suspense, and of course HEA.
