Broken Mountain Sinner
(2026)(The fourth book in the Silver Foxes of Raptor Creek series)
A Story by Lainey Rivers
He gave up on redemption years ago. She’s about to organize his entire life—starting with his heart.
Ranger Walsh hasn't comforted a soul in five years. Ever since a tragic disaster proved his presence couldn't save anyone, the former hospital chaplain has chosen bourbon and silence over faith, family, and human connection. He’s perfectly content in the shadows—until a curvy do-gooder walks into his bar wearing pearls, smelling like cherry lip gloss and carrying enough optimism to light up the whole valley.
Lucinda Cox doesn't do defeat; she organizes it into submission. She’s back in her hometown building a one-woman senior outreach program with a therapy dog, a spreadsheet, and sheer stubbornness. She definitely doesn't need a grizzled recluse with sad eyes and a voice like gravel. And she really doesn't need him showing up in her kitchen at dawn, tagging along on deliveries, and calling her Cin like it’s a confession.
He believes distance protects them both. She believes she has to carry the weight of the world alone. But when a flash flood traps them together with a collapsed wall and an old woman’s terrible tea, hiding their truth is no longer an option.
Broken Mountain Sinner is a steamy, small-town age-gap romance featuring a grumpy recluse, a sunshine heroine, and a guaranteed HEA. Book 4 in the Silver Foxes of Raptor Creek series.
