Burnout has a way of catching up with you. After months in the PICU watching families shatter, I'm running on empty. My supervisor won't take no for an answer—I need time away, and I need it now. Utah's mountain towns promise exactly what I need: solitude, fresh air, and a chance to remember who I am outside those hospital walls. One careless hike changes everything. Lost in unfamiliar terrain, I stumble straight into danger—a bear blocking my path. My panicked scream shatters the quiet, and suddenly there's Cooper: ruggedly handsome, disarmingly charming, and absolutely impossible to ignore. He's funny, thoughtful, and dangerously magnetic. When a sudden storm rolls in and he invites me to stay through the weekend, I don't hesitate. A few stolen days in his cabin blur into something electric, something that makes leaving unthinkable. Then his past catches up. The man I thought I knew isn't quite who he seems, and I'm forced to choose between the safety of my old life and the chaos of something real. * * Perfect for readers craving Alpha Male Protectors, Opposites Attract scenarios, and Accidental Romance wrapped in Steamy Adventure with a guaranteed HEA.
