An epic mountain man rescue sparks hot-blooded emotions, sizzling questions, and the drive for revenge...

I'm a woman haunted by my past, running from something terrible... Right into the arms of a man who terrifies the world.

Bodie.

A burly, inked, ex-military mountain man who intimidates, from his muscular build to his grumpy personality and fierce need to protect and serve.

Yet, he draws me to him like the home I've never known. And in his arms, I find an unaccustomed peace. The kind of peace I never thought possible for a woman like me, with a past like mine.

Bodie says with me, he's found the purpose that has evaded him since leaving the service...to protect me at all costs, do or die.

But how deep and enduring are the emotions running between us? Especially when ghosts from my past return unexpectedly and painfully?

Only one thing is certain: Retribution is on its way.
