About this ebook

A mountain man noir romantic suspense novel by USA Today bestselling author Lynn Burke

A wildling, Ma always called me, born of nature, feral as a fox.

I made a promise to her on her deathbed to look after my heartless Pa, but eight years later, he brings another woman to our homestead in the wilds of Alaska, testing my determination to honor Ma’s memory.

Saige is timid. Beautiful. Unthreatening and desperate for affection, consuming my mind and drawing me in.

I should flee—for both our safety.

But I have nothing to my name, and leaving as winter approaches means certain death, no matter my survival skills.

Pa crosses a line, and the wildling inside me rises like a bear on its hind legs, instinctively needing to show dominance.

This time, I won’t fail to protect the one I love, no matter the cost—even if it means breaking my promise and shedding blood.

Ratings and reviews

This was a very dark read and may have triggers for some people. Saige wanted out of a bad situation and thought she had found it. She found what she was looking for but at the wrong time, Flynn. My heart broke for these two unfortunate souls as they realized their love. Saige was strong enough to do what she needed to in order to survive, grasping at the smallest amount of positivity in her environment. Flynn fought his guilt on several levels to realize what was important to him. I warn again about the darkness of this story, though love did find a way in the end. I enjoyed the book. I received a copy of this story through Enticing Journey Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.

This is definitely a book you want to read if you love a Mountain Man. That being said, this book gutted me. I went on such an emotional rollercoaster with this, from AWE to Rage I never experienced reading a book, crying and heart break for the characters, but such an intense love you need to read how it ends. I thought… “Oh no she is going to get caught (my heart started to race)” “What will happen if she does (stay away, NO)” “How could he do that (I want to punch you)” and Well HOT DAMN (I need a cold shower)…… Seriously, just one-click this!!!
