There was really no way for me to know that the helpful woman from the sheriff's office who gave me a camping permit was sending me to camp on her brother's land in a misguided attempt at matchmaking. Or that he'd be so annoyed when he found me setting up my tent. The barrel-chested, plaid wearing, bearded giant growls and scowls more than he smiles and talks. Still, the whole grumpy mountain man thing is really working for me and all my lady bits.

I want to think the curvaceous romance author setting up a tent in my backyard is a lunatic. Instead, I can't stop fantasizing about sneaking into that tent to keep her warm. The military left me too scarred—inside and out—to have anything to offer a woman as sweet as Paige. It doesn't make me, not want her though. When the snow comes and she really does need some warmth, I'm ready to give her my body. Come morning I'll realize she's already stolen my heart.
