Claiming the Curvy Vet
(2026)(The second book in the Ridgewood Falls Protectors series)
A novel by Cora Lakewood
He doesn't do cheerful. Or chatty. Or curves that make his hands itch to hold on.
Dr. Emily Hart is all sunshine and second chances. Opening a small-town vet clinic was supposed to be her fresh start—not the beginning of a slow-burn nightmare. But when a grieving client starts crossing lines, Emily's forced to admit she might need backup.
Enter Cole Bennett. Ex-sniper. Expert brooder. And her scowling neighbor who suddenly won't leave her side.
He offers her safety. She offers him a reason to believe in something again.
One unexpected kiss is all it takes to turn his world upside down.
Now, keeping Emily safe isn't just the right thing to do. It's personal. And this grump is ready to claim the sunshine that's been warming up his cold, lonely world.
