Rural Town

Running the bakery with my sister is my life—early mornings, endless dough, and just enough sugar to keep me sane. I don't have time for distractions. But when I accidentally text a stranger, everything changes. He's not just mysterious—he's sharp-tongued, wickedly charming, and far too good at making me forget common sense. What starts as playful banter turns into something more…something that stirs my Omega instincts in ways I don't understand.

He's got a protective streak under his grumpy exterior, and he's convinced I won't make it through the Maine winter.

Hériter d'un vieux manoir et d'un joli pécule pour le rénover pourrait paraître excitant quand on n'a pas un sou.

The last thing I remembered was falling asleep in the snow after my so-called best friend abandoned me in the woods for rejecting him. But instead of waking up in a snow drift, I woke up in an unfamiliar cabin with six feet of shirtless alpha wrapped around me to fend off the cold. I'd hoped to head home and put this awful trip behind me, start my new job, and live a glorious single life as an independent omega. But Mother Nature had other plans: A brutal snowstorm. An unexpected heat. And four scent-matched saviors trapped in a cabin with me.
