BLURB:
Sparks
fly when a headstrong wrangler and an alpha park ranger are thrown
together while he searches for evidence to stop the poacher killing
animals in RMNP. When the monster turns his sights on Brittany, Joel
discovers he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her—even give his
own life.
Trust
makes all the difference when love and danger collide.

Excerpt
He
didn’t say a word about the groceries during the drive. Instead, he
slipped into investigative mode. “Is there anyone you can think of
who would’ve slashed your tires? Someone you don’t get along
with?”
She
shook her head. “Only Kelly.”
And
apparently, whoever wrote that note. How did he know so much about
her? Could it be the poacher was someone she knew? A chill clawed up
her spine and she wasn’t able to quell the resulting shudder.
Joel
shot her a glance before checking the rearview mirror. “You’ve
never had any problems with a guest?”
“No.”
He
reached over to adjust his side mirror, then glanced toward hers.
“Hopefully there’s something on the security video from the
grocery store and this’ll be over soon.”
She
prayed he was right.
They
were almost to the ranch when she realized his gaze hadn’t stopped
shifting from the winding mountain road in front of them to the
rearview mirror every couple seconds. When she twisted to look out
the back window, her pulse leapt at the sight of headlights not too
far behind.
He
shot her another look. “What?”
She
turned back just enough to face him. The dim light of the dash did
nothing to soften the harsh line of his profile. “You’re the one
spending more time checking mirrors than watching the road. Is
someone following us?”
His
fingers flexed on the wheel. His gaze flicked to the mirror again.
“I’m just being careful, that’s all.”
A
moment later, he slowed for Highlands, then gave her a brief warning
of “Hang on,” before cutting the lights. He still took the turn
and then a stomp on the brakes threw her forward against the
seatbelt. Somehow she managed to brace her hands against the
dashboard as they jerked to a stop on the far left side of the
resort’s main entrance.
He
cut the engine and the cab plunged into darkness. In the sudden
silence, her heart thumped wildly in her chest. Her lungs grew
tighter with each short breath. His hand finding hers to offer a
reassuring squeeze didn’t help, because a second later he ordered,
“Stay in the truck,” and opened his door.
It
closed again just as quick, leaving her all alone as the overhead
light faded to black.
