Blurb
Desperate for an escape, Jae Copeland takes a solo kayaking trip into the lush wilderness of the Smoky Mountains. When she ends up stranded and soggy, she makes camp and hopes to avoid dangerous, wild animals. She should have been more worried about dangerous, wild humans, but she’s both alarmed and thrilled when Hanson Sykes, a fellow kayaker, happens upon her. He’s an experienced mountain man…and sexy as hell.
The sparks between them light up the uninhabited darkness, because survival in the mountains isn’t his only talent. He knows exactly how to touch her in ways that make her burn.
Excerpt
“You look like a mountain nymph who took a dip in the stream with that blonde hair all wild and your”—he swallowed—”clothes all plastered to your skin. Stunning.”
He caressed my hair, running his hand through the strands just over my ear.
My breath caught again, my heart picking up speed. I didn’t feel stunning—stunningly stupid maybe—standing half-naked and wet in his jacket, my hair drying into a long, frizzy mangle. I let out a nervous laugh. “What could possibly be stunning?”
“Your lips. You have luscious lips. They’re pouty, almost swollen, like you’ve been kissed.” He ran one finger lightly over my bottom lip, a touch so feathery it tickled. “I want to kiss you, Jae. I know that’s crazy.”
My lips parted, and a half-sigh came out. I wrapped my fingers around his wrist, felt the tendons in his arm strung tight. I deserved one kiss, didn’t I? After surviving my near-drowning, I deserved a man as delicious looking as him kissing me senseless in the starlight. “Kiss me, Hanson.”
makes it to shore on a small island in the middle of the river. Alone and
stranded in a vast national park, she never expected help to arrive in the form
of a sexy bearded man.
more than equipped to help Jae in her predicament. The thing is, it’s nighttime
and the chemistry between them is sparking red-hot. The only thing to do is
obvious—fall hard into each other’s arms.
really liked the characters and the HFN ending. It’s pretty short, only about
10k in word count, but Ms. Black still told a full, well-rounded story. I
didn’t feel like I got to know Hanson very well, since the story is told only
from Jae’s perspective, but I still liked him a lot. If you want a quick,
dirty, and super fun read, pick up this story. I definitely recommend it.
