Mountain Man's Plus Size Shelter
(2026)(Book 13 in the Plus Size Passion Chronicles series)
A novel by Betrice Clayton
How did one snowbound night turn into falling for the mountain man who swore he’d never want me?
I run from headlines until Caleb lets me stay on his ridge, all quiet strength and locked doors in his gaze.
He is off-limits and irresistible, a man who keeps his heart guarded even as mine starts to crack open.
One storm and one reckless choice pull us into forced proximity as the world disappears under snow.
We share coffee, firelight, and the kind of looks that feel like confession.
Three moments undo me: his steady calm when the avalanche threatens, his gentle care when fear hits hard, and the way he watches my photographs like they matter.
That is when I realize I have fallen for him, just as a blackmailer tries to sell our story and exposure closes in.
Now I have to choose between my career and the trust he’s offering.
If this breaks the wrong way, I don’t just lose control of my narrative—I lose the only safe shelter I’ve ever wanted.
Genre: Romance
