Homeward

It's Grace's turn to find her happily ever after...but she's fallen for the reclusive mountain man named Bear! When a shocking package arrives at the doorstep of her cottage, she knows her world has just turned upside down - times two!

I pull into the diner of this small mountain town, knowing there’s only two things I want: To put down roots and find someone to build a life with. And when I slide into the booth, the woman who pours me a cup of joe is sweet as sugar and warm as apple pie. She serves me up a “Josie Special” and I know she’s made to order - the only woman for me. My past is dark, too dark for a ray of light like her. But she cracks open the clouds and lets the sunshine in...she sees me as the man I can become. Her father wants me gone. He thinks he knows all about me.

A mountain brings us together, but our past is determined to keep us apart. She may have been with another man, but she belongs with me. She was my first, and she’s going to be my last. Cherish is my one true love, and I’m fighting for what’s mine.

When my cousin Jax bails me out after a bar fight, I head to his middle-of-nowhere cabin. I don't mind - I was made to be a mountain man. I’m not the only person staying at Jax’s place. His wife’s cousin, Honor, is here too. Suddenly this mountain is looking a hell of a lot better. When Honor tells me her life is complicated it’s the understatement of the century. Besides having a tender heart and the face of an angel, she’s a sister-wife, on the run from her ex, desperate to give her children a better life.

I want two things in life: a woman and a child. When I walk into the diner and see Rosie, I think my motherf--king dreams have come true. We share one stolen afternoon, but then she’s gone. Eight months later she shows up at my cabin. Her belly swollen, her breasts full, and with the face of an angel. Still, she wants to keep on running.
