Mail-Order Bride for my Rival
(2026)(The fifth book in the Mountain Men of Promise Ridge series)
A novel by Ali Wilder
He's nineteen years older, the mountain man who keeps beating me for contracts—and my mail-order groom.
Thirty days in Deegan Cote's cabin. One bed. A snowstorm closing the only road out.
I'm here to rebuild my furniture business, not fall for my rival. My ex already stole my designs and emptied our accounts. I'm done letting a man decide my future.
Then Deegan gives me a workbench beside his, cooks my supper, and looks at my curves like he's been waiting his whole life to get his hands on them.
I'm a virgin. He's very willing to change that.
Worse, he's proud of my work—even when it could beat his. We're competing for the same commission.
But my ex enters the competition with a design he stole from me.
Then he tells the judges Deegan built my entry.
Can I beat the man I'm falling for? Or will the man who stole my work take this chance from me too?
I came to learn how he wins. I didn't plan on learning how he kisses.
A short, scorching instalove mountain-man age-gap romance.
No cheating, no cliffhangers, always an HEA. 🏔️
Genre: Romance
