Mountain Pine
(2026)(The second book in the Mountain Men Thirst Trap series)
A novel by Briana Michaels
Conner
I blew it. I had one shot with the only woman I’ve ever loved, and I panicked. Now I’m friend-zone for life.
Pining over the one who got away is nothing compared to the torment of yearning for the woman I see every single day. I pushed Taylor away because I didn’t deserve her then, and I don’t now. So why am I going to beg her to let me cross the friendship line one more time and damn myself just to answer the question that’s burned in my heart for over ten years?
What if…
Taylor
Conner is the only man I’ll ever love, but he doesn’t love me back. That much became obvious the day I threw caution to the wind and tried to kiss him. It was the most humiliating day of my life and I’ve yet to recover.
He’s my best friend. My family. If I risk giving him my heart again, I’ll never survive a second rejection. But when our friendship blurs and things take a turn, we risk more than just our hearts. We risk everything.
Conner’s confident we’ll be fine, but I’m not convinced because I can’t shake this bad feeling in my gut.
And my intuition is never wrong.
Genre: Romance
