Stolen By The Mountain Man
(2026)(The fifth book in the Heartland Heroes series)
A novel by Maya McKenna
He steals women from danger. He's never wanted to keep one before.
Wren Blackwell escaped a trafficking ring three weeks ago and has been living in her car, terrified they'll find her. When horse rancher Flint Everett discovers her starving in the woods, he doesn't ask permission—he takes her. Carries her home. Locks the doors. Refuses to let her leave until she's healed.
She's a prisoner again. Except this cage has soft beds, hot meals, and a scarred giant who tends her wounds with devastating gentleness.
Flint has been rescuing tr*fficked women for fifteen years—ever since he lost his sister to the same nightmare. His ranch is a hidden waystation, a place of healing before he sends them to safety. But with Wren, broken and brave and more beautiful than she knows, he can't imagine letting her go.
Sometimes being stolen by the right man is the only way to be truly free.
