Stranded by a blizzard. Rescued by the man who’s wanted me all along. I noticed Sheriff Mason Hawkins long before he ever touched me. Hard not to. He was all broad shoulders and quiet authority—the kind of man who filled a room without saying much at all. Lone Mountain’s sheriff. The one everyone trusted. The one who kept his distance from me. For months, Mason showed up at my diner like clockwork. Same booth. Same coffee. Always watching. Never crossing the line. When our hands brushed, he went still. When I smiled at him, his jaw tightened like he was holding something back. I told myself it meant nothing. I was just the woman behind the counter. Then the storm hit. My car died on a back road. The snow kept falling. And Mason came for me—dragging me out of the cold and into his cabin with the kind of determination that didn’t leave room for argument. Snowed in. Alone. And finally out of excuses. That’s when the sheriff stopped pretending. Stopped holding back. And told me the truth. He hadn’t stayed away because he didn’t want me. He stayed away because he wanted me too much. One storm. One cabin. And a heat that wasn’t going to wait for the roads to clear. Because some men don’t flirt. They claim. ❄️ Snowstorm Forced Proximity 🏔️ Small-Town Mountain Romance 🚓 Protective Sheriff Hero 🔥 Quiet Alpha / Hidden Obsession 🖤 Curvy Heroine ⚡ Fast-Burn Instalove Snowed In with the Sheriff is a steamy, small-town winter romance in the Lone Mountain Winter Nights series.
