Grumped By the Mountain Man

Jaxon

Butterflies aren't meant to be bound. It kills them faster than any predator.

So when my best friend's little sister, Ayla is ready to spread her wings in a brand new city for photography school, I do all in my power to help her.

Then I say goodbye forever...except forever isn't as long as I expected.

My curvy, red-headed butterfly is flitting around Covet County for now, but I can't delude myself into thinking this county, including me has all that she needs to soar.

I'm a grump. A recluse.

She's sunshine after a bout of rain.

It'll never work.

Ayla

I've soared. I've flown. And now I'm ready to land spread eagle on the perfect grumpy mountain man.

Trouble is he won't let me...

Can a bout of hail and a few hours trapped in Jaxon's cabin get him to see that I'm not going anywhere?

Or will he allow his past to dictate our future?

He says I'm his sunshine, so I'm determined to thaw his heart and let myself in.
