Shadowed by Her Mountain Man

A mountain town where secret obsessions echo through the pines, love defies all boundaries, and rumors of 'The Shadow' whisper in the wind. In the heart of Alpine Ridge, a place where the world is quiet and the mountains whisper secrets, Jake lives as a guardian of solitude. His days are spent fixing what's broken, and his nights are spent caring for the woman he loves--even if she doesn't know it yet.

Lila, kind-hearted and curious, is touched by the inexplicable gifts that appear in her life, evidence of a silent protector watching over her. Could it be Jake, with his quiet strength and soulful eyes, who's the source of these enchanting surprises, or is it the legendary 'Shadow' the town gossips about? As their connection deepens, the secrets of Alpine Ridge threaten to unravel their fragile romance. Hidden mysteries and painful memories could tear them apart, but Lila sees through the layers of enigma, reaching for the heart of the man who would risk everything to keep her safe.
