Lucien Bergeron O’Rourke cherishes his newfound family and would do anything to protect and honor them. When he realizes Samantha is more than his best friend, he wants to steal her away from his brother’s attentions, an impossibility in the middle of a Montana winter. Besides, why would she choose him when she only sees him as a friend?
Samantha Schmidt adores the O’Rourke family. Above all, she treasures Lucien, although he must never suspect her abiding affection. When she catches him eyeing her covetously, she realizes she must find a way to leave, no matter how much she loves him. For Lucien is unaware of her secrets. If he were, surely he’d find another, one more worthy of his devotion.
As winter thaws and spring approaches, will Lucien find a way to convince Samantha of his ardor, or will she allow fear to ruin their growing love?

Ramona is a historical romance author who loves to immerse herself in research as much as she loves writing. A native of Montana, every day she marvels that she gets to live in such a beautiful place. When she’s not writing, her favorite pastimes are fly fishing the cool clear streams of a Montana river, hiking in the mountains, and spending time with family and friends.
Ramona’s heroines are strong, resilient women, the type of women you’d love to have as your best friend. Her heroes are loyal and honorable, the type of men you’d love to meet or bring home to introduce to your family for Sunday dinner. She hopes her stories bring the past alive and allow you to forget the outside world for a while.
