In the space between want and desire, devastating secrets linger…

Aspen
As a dedicated single girl and wedding planner, I don’t need love. I need success.
Lots of it.

But one man tempts and eludes me: Axel St. Claire.

A rugged, muscular, devastatingly charming mountain man and brewmaster from the Sierra Nevada backcountry, he sets my world on fire after we match on the Mountain Mates dating site.

But he’s frustratingly closed-off and secretive—red flags that make me call off our first and only in-person date.

Bullet dodged. Toxic relationship avoided. End of story … or so I think.

When I get hired to plan the wedding of Ridge Dawson and Paige Laurier in Axel’s neck of the woods, I hesitate. But what are the odds of seeing him? So, I take the job.

Turns out, Axel’s one of Ridge’s foster brothers, and our first meeting leads to pure incineration. Trying to keep things professional becomes just one time. Blame it on the sizzling sparks igniting the air between us.

But we can't stay away ... need leading to unrestrained passions and feelings neither of us are prepared to explore because they demand digging up dark secrets better laid to rest. And Axel isn’t the only one keeping them...
