She sneaked into his cabin, ate his food, and stole his heart. Now he’s keeping this runaway bride.
Bentley:
I live on this mountain for a reason.
Quiet. Safe. No attachments. No risks.
Then, in the middle of a thunderstorm, she breaks into my cabin—soaked to the bone, wedding dress torn and clinging to every curve.
Too young. Too innocent. Too tempting.
I should throw her out. Ride out this storm alone.
When I find her asleep in my bed after eating my food, there’s no way I’m letting her go.
She ran from a man who didn’t deserve her.
Now she’s trapped with the grumpy mountain bear who’s been craving someone just like her.
Josie:
I was supposed to marry a man who only cared about my last name.
Instead, I bolted—straight into a thunderstorm, down a mountain trail I barely understand, and into the path of the grumpiest, roughest man I’ve ever seen.
Bentley doesn’t smile. Doesn’t talk much either.
But he watches me like I’m the only thing that’s ever made him feel something.
He’s a reclusive veteran with a beard, an axe, and eyes that make promises without saying a word.
I should be scared.
But in this cabin—stranded with lightning outside and heat crackling between us—
I’ve never felt safer… or more wanted.
