For years photographer Renee Miller has avoided her tiny North Carolina hometown, scene of a teenage humiliation so legendary it still makes her cringe. But when her mom sends a guilt-laced SOS to help with a charity calendar, she’s dragged back armed only with her cameras, a shaky sense of dignity, and absolutely no training in handling twelve half-naked hunks.
Shooting pets is her specialty, not shirtless bachelors.
Blake “Mad Dog” Maddox, former MMA fighter and current reclusive metalsmith, would rather stomp a camera than pose for one. He prefers his mountain, his forge, and the company of his quirky pets to people. Unfortunately, his sweetly ruthless grandmother volunteers him anyway, leaving him determined to scare off the persistent paparazzo before she can say “flex.”
He has more to protect than just his pride.
Trapped together by a storm, their chemistry burns hotter than molten steel. As Renee faces down the ghosts of her past—and a meddling local determined to tank the project—she’s forced to decide if she’s finally brave enough to stop running…and whether her fling with a grumpy hermit just might develop into a picture-perfect ending.

Nika Rhone spent her childhood wearing out library cards as she read her way through the extraordinary worlds far beyond her small hometown on Long Island, NY. By her teens, her imagination was taking her places all on its own, forcing her to learn how to type (badly) so she could get those stories down on paper.
After a long love affair with science fiction and fantasy, she finally discovered romance, fell head-over-heels, and now spends her days crafting happily-ever-afters for the characters who still tell their stories faster (and better) than she can type them.
She’s the award-winning author of almost a dozen romance novels, including the Boulder Bodyguards, Boulder Beaumonts, and Wounded Warrior Legacy series, and can usually be found toiling over her next book with a (more than) healthy dose of caffeine close at hand.
