Snowbound with Her Hero

Abby O’Rourke thought she had dodged a bullet when she broke up with her possessive boyfriend. But when he kidnaps her and drives her to the middle of nowhere, then crashes in a snowstorm, she knows she has to make her escape before he regains consciousness.

She only sees lights at one house, on the other side of the lake from the road. As she desperately treks toward it through the snow, her thin clothing offers little protection against the harsh elements.

When she finally stumbles to the home’s front door, it is opened by a shaggy-haired, bearded man who scoops her up and carries her to the fire.

Grayson Dunn moved to the Minnesota lake house to get away from everyone after a tragedy tore his life apart. He’s satisfied being miles away from any other human being, isolated and writing his thriller novels, so he’s caught by surprise by the freezing young woman at his door. His protective instincts—the ones he thought buried—kick in, and he helps her warm up, ready to deliver her to law enforcement as soon as the road is cleared.

But danger lurks outside, and Grayson is forced to rely on his training to protect Abby—and himself.

But the longer they spend confined together, the more she brightens up his gloomy life opens up his eyes and his heart.

He saved her life…but never thought she could save his.
