A family starting over after being banished from paradise, their patriarch losing his life after being falsely accused of a crime committed by others. Brothers forged together by duty to protect and provide for their mother and sister. When the oldest brother, a cowboy lonely for love but content in the wilderness, is thrust in the spotlight by a Hollywood sweetheart, her secret might get them both killed.

Ellie Dampier
I was happiest on the big screen where I could be anybody,
Until someone wanted me gone.
Falling props, flat tires, nasty notes in my trailer;
I needed to get away, vanish – and my manager told me about Outdoor Outfitters.
The wilds of Colorado, specialising in losing yourself in nature;
The perfect place to disappear and hope my stalker moved on.
And then I met him – the cowboy who made my toes curl.
Tall, dark, and so handsome I broke into a sweat.
The minute my eyes landed on him, I wanted him.
He was built tough. Rugged. Scorching.
His deep eyes awakened desires in me.
I’m used to any man I want, but he keeps himself at a distance.
But I was going off the grid with him – primitive camping.
I’m pretty sure we won’t need a fire with this heat he’s stirring up,
But I don’t want to ruin it by telling him about my unwanted attention.
I just want all of his.

Colden Hale
I had planned on a weekend off the ranch with my brothers –
Four bachelors looking for beer, boobs, and mechanical bulls.
I didn’t get out much, so I enjoyed every second when I did.
But then some Hollywood actress books a last-minute excursion –
And I volunteered to stay behind and take the job.
When I met her, passion flared and I didn’t regret a thing.
She wanted off the grid. I was happy to oblige as long as I was with her.
But I held back to find out if she’s real or just playing a part.
Her adventurous spirit made her all the more desirable.
Not even the cold winter weather prevented the heat wave.
I just wanted to warm her up, over and over again.
She’s soft and curvy, and I just know our bodies will be perfect together.
I just need to get her to the cabin and stroke the fire. That was my plan.
But things went a little sideways when she told me her secret.

Can Colden prove that his experience is beneficial in many different areas? And why isn’t Ellie as surprised as he is when they figure out they’re not on the mountain alone? Can they contain their passion without burning down the cabin? Or will their unexpected guest put a permanent end to their adventure?
