Cormac's Protection
(2026)(The second book in the Copper Creek Mountain Men series)
A Story by Lexi Rose
Cormac
Loving something is how you lose it.
I learned that eleven years ago.
Since then I've kept a life with nothing in it. Nothing anybody can take.
Then the sheriff calls in a favor.
One witness. Nine days. Keep her breathing until the trial.
Josie.
She's twenty-seven.
Curvy, mouthy, and hiding under her mother's house while killers tear it apart above her.
I pull her out of the dark without a sound. She grabs my jacket and doesn't let go.
Big mistake.
Mine, not hers.
The men who killed her brother need her silent.
I take her up my mountain, to a cabin no map has ever heard of.
One room. A woman seventeen years too young for me.
They'll come for her.
That much I know for certain.
And I'll be waiting.
Nine days to keep her safe. A lifetime to keep her.
Cormac's Protection is a steamy, small-town mountain man instalove romance with forced proximity, a curvy heroine, an age-gap protector and a guaranteed HEA. Book 2 in Copper Creek Mountain Men. Every book is a standalone.
