The first time I met him, I nearly shot him.
I didn't expect him to become my protector.

Brooke

My dad gambled away our home.
The men he owes don't make threats -- they make examples.

I grew up with a rifle in my hands and fear in my chest.
I don't trust strangers.
I don't need saving.

But when the violence comes to our door,
our new neighbor steps in front of it.

Big. Brooding. Dangerous.
And suddenly, my heart's no longer the safest thing I own.

Hawk

I came back to the mountains to bury my past.
I wasn't looking for trouble -- or a woman.

Then I see her.
Fierce. Curvy. Pointing a rifle straight at my head.

From the moment our eyes meet, I know one thing:
She's mine to protect.

If standing between her and a gun gets me killed, so be it.
Once I choose a woman, I choose forever.

A short, intense mountain alpha instalove romance featuring a curvy heroine, a possessive older hero, danger, devotion, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

? No cheating
? No cliffhanger
