Comforted By The Mountain Man

I don’t smile. I don’t flirt. And I definitely don’t fall for wide-eyed women almost half my age with sunshine in their laugh.

I’ve spent my life on this mountain, building things that last, complete with structures, routines, and walls around my heart. After losing my parents and holding my brothers together, I gave up the idea of wanting anything for myself. That kind of thinking doesn’t get a man very far out here. Responsibility comes first. Always.
Then Sierra moves into the cabin next door.
She’s too young. Too soft. Too bright for a man like me. And yet… she doesn’t flinch at my silence. Doesn’t shrink from my rough edges. She looks at me like I’m not broken, like I’m still the kind of man who could be someone’s safe place.
I tell myself to stay away.
But when her little boy calls me “Daddy,” something cracks wide open. Something primal. Possessive. Permanent.
Sierra doesn’t need saving. She can do bad all by herself. But if anyone dares hurt her or her son, they’ll learn exactly what kind of man I am and the type of family I come from.

Comforted By The Mountain Man is a small-town, age gap romance featuring a gruff, overprotective mountain man with a guarded heart, a single mom who refuses to back down, and a little boy who gives them both a second chance at family. It’s book one in the Eden Ridge: Hunter Brothers series and can be read as a standalone with a guaranteed HEA.
