Love At Lookout Point

A Sweet Grumpy Mountain Man Romance

2025

A grumpy trail guide. A sunshine-hearted traveler. One unexpected storm that changes everything. Quinn Harper is used to moving on. As a travel content creator, she’s made a career out of chasing scenic views and hidden gems, never staying in one place too long. But when her latest adventure brings her to Juniper Falls, a rain-soaked hike to Lookout Point strands her with the one man in town who wants nothing to do with her camera, her curiosity, or her cinnamon-sweet optimism. Hunter Rhodes used to believe in love. Until tragedy taught him better. Now he lives alone in a cabin on the edge of the mountain, guiding tourists by day and avoiding the rest of the world by night. He’s got no patience for nosy questions or bright-eyed visitors… Especially not the kind who smile too easily and talk about chasing dreams. But when one storm forces them into close quarters, something shifts. Shared silences turn to lingering glances, and walls built out of guilt begin to crack. She wasn’t supposed to stay. He wasn’t supposed to feel again. And neither of them expected to fall in love at Lookout Point. A heartfelt small-town romance with rugged mountains, healing hearts, and a love story written in the stars. Love At Lookout Point is part of the Alphabet Sweetheart series, twenty-six sweet romances set in Juniper Falls. These fun, quick reads will quickly become your favorite new escape.
