She's Hunting a Rare Mushroom. He's Trying Not to Want Her. Both Are Failing.

Emily

I knew the Rocky Mountain Redcap was rare -- but I didn't know it would take me this deep into the wild.

Into the heart of the mountains. Into the path of a man who wants nothing to do with me. Into a pup tent with barely enough room for one, let alone two.

Ben is gruff, frustrating, and hot enough to sear a porterhouse. He doesn't have to say a word -- it's clear I'm out of my element.

This isn't my world. I don't have his instincts, or his experience. But I know how to work for what I want.

And I'm not backing down now.

Even when I realize I might be hunting something much more elusive than a mushroom.

Ben

I know better than to want things I can't have.

Once, I thought I wasn't meant to live out here alone. Then I learned my lesson.

Now Emily is in my woods, all soft curves and sharp determination, chasing something rare. She's too sweet for this life, too stubborn to turn back, and too damn tempting to ignore.

She says she only needs the Redcap.

So why do I wish she was searching for something else?

Tucked deep in the Colorado Rockies, Rugged Ridge is a town that holds tight to its way of life. The winters are long, the summers are short, and the men are as unyielding as the mountains around them. Tourists come for the promise of an escape from their routines. But for those who call this place home, it's more than just a postcard-perfect stop -- it's part of who they are. And when love finds them, it takes more than just a pretty face to slip past their guard.

This grumpy/sunshine mountain man romance has everything you love -- rugged charm, undeniable chemistry, and a heartfelt journey to a guaranteed HEA.
