Rugged Mountain Man

Sadie
I needed an escape—from the noise, the deadlines, the endless grind of a job I couldn’t stand. A mountain retreat sounded perfect. What I didn’t plan for was getting lost in the woods, or being rescued by Cole, a rugged mountain man with a quiet strength that left me breathless. He’s everything the city isn’t—calm, grounded, free. And as he teaches me what it means to truly live, I start to wonder if the life I’ve always known is worth going back to. Do I return to the city that drains me or stay in the mountains with Cole, where I’ve never felt more alive?

Cole
I’ve always been fine on my own—just me, the mountains, and my horses. People come and go, but nature stays steady. I never thought I needed anything else. Then I found Sadie, lost and scared in the woods, and everything changed. She’s beautiful, fiery, and completely out of her element, yet she fits here in a way I never expected. For the first time, I want more than the life I’ve built for myself. All I can do is show her that she’s been mine since the moment I laid eyes on her. She’s mine, and nothing will stop me from having her.

Rugged Mountain Man is a standalone, small-town, breeder romance between a grumpy mountain man and a sweet city girl. No cheating and happily ever after guaranteed.
