A screaming baby. A blizzard. And a stranger in a yellow raincoat who might just save them both.

Ethan Cole is at his breaking point. A grueling career as a fire captain and a past as a Marine didn't prepare him for this: a sudden guardianship of his infant niece, Ellie.. Isolated in his mountain cabin, running on zero sleep and sheer stubbornness, he is drowning. Until a woman shows up on his porch in the middle of a storm, holding a casserole and offering the one thing he refuses to ask for: help..

Chloe Reyes has been running for eight months.. Hiding from a past that refuses to let her go, she takes a job as a nanny for a man who clearly wants her gone.. But beneath Ethan's gruff exterior and scarring tattoos, she sees a protector.. And when a snowstorm traps them together, the heat between them burns hotter than the fire in the grate..

But Chloe's past has found her.. And when the threat arrives at their door, Ethan will have to prove that he isn't just a guardian for the baby—he is a warrior for the woman he loves..

"No one touches what's mine.".

Warning: This book contains a grumpy mountain man, a sunshine nanny, high-heat scenes, and a Happily Ever After that will melt the snow.
