Tonya Lorenzo thought inheriting her grandmother’s Vermont cottage would give her the fresh start she desperately needs. What she didn’t expect was to break down on a muddy mountain road in designer heels, completely at the mercy of the most intimidating man she’s ever met.
Kevin Pike has spent years building the perfect life in isolation—just him, his maple syrup operation, and his three foster brothers scattered across Burke Mountain. The last thing he needs is a helpless city princess disrupting his carefully controlled world. But when Tonya’s controlling ex shows up with hired muscle to drag her back to Manhattan, Kevin’s protective instincts explode.
She’s MINE. On MY mountain. Under MY protection.
Trapped together by storms and secrets, Tonya discovers the gentle heart beneath Kevin’s gruff exterior, while he finds himself addicted to her fierce determination and soft curves. But when her past threatens everything he’s built, Kevin will have to choose between the safe isolation he’s always known and fighting for the woman who’s awakened his wild heart.
She came to his mountain broken. He’ll make sure she never leaves.
