One storm. One night. No way back but through each other.

Wren

I don’t get lost.

Not on trails, not in life, and definitely not with a man who acts like life owes him something.

So when Jasper and I get stranded during a scavenger hunt, the Search and Rescue officer insists his way is the only way off this mountain?

Yeah. That’s a hard no.

I’ve spent my whole life proving I can handle myself. I don’t need directions; I don’t need rescuing, and I definitely don’t need him watching me like I’m a problem to solve.

But one wrong call—half mine, half his—and suddenly we’re stranded overnight with a storm rolling in.

Now it’s just the two of us, one shelter, and a whole lot of tension that has nothing to do with survival.

I’m not the kind of woman who falls fast.

But something about being out here… cut off from everything but him…

It’s getting harder to remember why I should keep my distance.

Jasper

I don’t make mistakes out here.

People trust me with their lives. I don’t guess; I don’t hesitate, and I don’t lose control.

Until her.

From the second we’re paired up, she challenges every call I make.

She doesn’t need help.

Doesn’t want it.

And for some reason, that gets under my skin more than anything else.

When the trail goes sideways and the weather turns, I know exactly what we should do.

She disagrees.

And that’s how we end up stuck on a mountain overnight.

Alone.

I’ve spent years keeping my distance, keeping things clean, controlled.

But in the dark, with nothing but shared heat between us, control starts to feel overrated.

Because the truth is?

She’s the only person who’s ever made me want to risk getting lost.

Alone with the Mountain Man is a steamy, standalone short romance featuring two stubborn professionals, a forced night in the wild, and the kind of connection that refuses to stay temporary. Part of the Hot Mountain Nights series, where one unforgettable night changes everything.
