Protected By The Recluse
(2025)(The fourth book in the Rocky Ridge Mountain Men series)
A Story by Thea Shaw
I went searching for a story on a remote mountain and found a monster.
Now, he's the only one who can save me.
Silas Hart is a ghost. A grumpy, possessive recluse who lives in a fortress of solitude, hiding a past so dark it's become a town legend. He’s also the key to the story that could save my career if I can survive him.
When a blizzard leaves me for dead on his doorstep, he reluctantly drags me into his sanctuary. He saved my life, but he warns me to stay away. He says he’s dangerous, that his guilt over the lives he failed to protect makes him poison to anyone who gets close.
But trapped in his cabin, I see the man behind the walls. He's a tortured ex-FBI agent who watches me with a raw, possessive hunger that makes my body ache. He says I should be terrified. But he’s the first man who has ever made me feel safe.
My investigation has stirred up more than his ghosts; it’s brought a ruthless enemy to our door. Now, the man who exiled himself to protect the world must decide if I’m the one person he’s willing to kill for.
Protected by the Recluse is a steamy, standalone mountain man romance packed with suspense and heat.
If you love a tortured, protective alpha hero and a determined heroine who refuses to be saved, you'll be obsessed with this thrilling book in the Rocky Ridge Rescuers series, but can be read as a standalone. Get ready for forced proximity, over-the-top insta-love, and a guaranteed HEA with no cheating!
