Dr. Cathleen James trusts data, not cowboys. As a guarded wildfire ecologist, she arrives in the rugged Alberta foothills to assess a burn scar, but she didn't predict the human obstacle standing in her way: Ashton McCrae. He is a grumpy rancher-a northern cowboy with a heart hardened by the fires that ravaged his legacy. He sees Cathleen as just another bureaucrat to fight in this small town, sparking a volatile enemies to lovers conflict from the moment they meet.
But when a sudden storm triggers a catastrophic landslide, their professional dispute instantly shifts into a desperate wilderness adventure. Cut off from civilization, they are thrust into forced proximity within an old line shack. This survival scenario strips away their defenses, proving that opposites attract when lives are on the line. The danger they face rivals the intensity of any firefighter or smokejumper mission, forcing them to rely on each other to endure the elements.
In the isolation of the unforgiving wilderness, the heat between them becomes undeniable. Yet, survival isn't just physical. Both must confront the emotional scars of past trauma and find a path toward healing. This western romance novel explores whether love can bloom in the ashes of the past. Will they let their walls crumble, or will the secrets they carry burn them down? Discover a romance as untamed as the ground they stand on.Also from
