Nature was my domain. Where I preferred to be. Hiking trails. Guiding people through the tangle of scrub. But then I got the rescue call – a chick with a twisted ankle stuck on a hill. Typical city girls. Clueless. Only, when I found Fiona, I didn’t anticipate that she’d be so… smoking hot. Fawn-like eyes. Redheaded bob. Curvy figure… Hmm, my carnal desire went into overload. I helped her back to my cabin. But that was a mistake. My “mountain man” urges couldn’t be resisted. And the way she looked at me was far from innocent. So, we made love... all night long. After that, I never expected to see her again... Until she showed up at my house and uttered two words that changed everything: “I’m pregnant.” Fiona wasn’t just a mere rescue anymore. She was the mother of my baby. And that meant she was mine. But neither of us were prepared for what happened next…

    Especially after a bearshifting hunk of mancandy (her words) saves her deliciously curvy self (his words) from the evil enchantress.If she can save the small town (and a dog) from an untimely, witchy doom, she still needs to contend with the possessive, brazen bear of a man with desires to claim her as his own...That last part sounds lovely, actually.I mean, sure. Why not? Let’s do this!
