      LOVE IN THE GREAT OUTDOORS

      With two little girls and a demanding job, Charlotte Folsom’s plate is already full when she arrives in Sugar Falls. Hiking, fishing, rafting? Absolutely not her thing. But Chef Charlotte is on special assignment for her magazine, so she decides to make the best of it. Her river guide, Alex Russell, is rugged and hunky, and the camera loves him. For her, the jury is still out.

      Alex has seen enough city sophisticates come to Idaho for his adventure vacations to know that Charlotte is not the woman for him. When a sudden storm leaves them stranded in the mountains, however, unexpected passion flares among the pines. The Mountain Man and the Magazine Mom? Unthinkable! Or just maybe inevitable...

      “It makes sense why you wouldn’t want to get involved with the customers.”

      “That doesn’t have anything to do with it. I just like to keep my distance in general.” Alex sure wasn’t proving the truth of that statement, because as he said the words, he noticed that he’d somehow managed to scoot his sleeping bag closer to hers. “I like my life the way it is.”

      “Of course you do,” she said, that sexy soft whisper back.

      Another clap of thunder shuddered through the trees outside, and he found himself grasping the edge of her sleeping bag, tugging it toward him. He heard Charlotte’s indrawn breath. But she didn’t pull away.

      “You live in your world and I live in mine,” he said, talking more to himself, wanting reassurance that despite their physical proximity, he still had some emotional boundaries left.

      Their faces were inches apart. “You said it yourself, Alex. What happens out here stays out here.”

      But what exactly was happening? He could navigate the wild mountain terrain in the snow without a GPS, but he’d never trusted himself to read women very well unless they provided him with a clear course.

      “Are you sure about this?” he asked, not wanting to question what exactly this was.

      Whether it’s collecting pine cones, helping Daddy set up the tent or roasting marshmallows over the fire (despite the fact that you only eat the chocolate out of your s’mores), your enthusiasm for the great outdoors is immeasurable and so much fun to witness. I can’t wait for our next camping adventure. I love you, Peanut.
