Gunnar by Tarin Lex

Gunnar:
Home is my cabin in the mountains, where I decompress.
As a soldier I know I shouldn’t get attached. But right now I have everything I’ve ever wanted—
Except a curvy beauty to share it with.
Then Natalie appears at my front door like a babe in the woods. She’s exactly the kind of distraction I don’t need while I’m deployed. I’ll worry about her. I’ll dream of her.
I can throw her out—out of these woods, out of my home, out my life.
But I can’t throw her out of the spot in my heart she’s carved open and crawled into.

Natalie:
Confession: I’m a romance novel addict.
My favorite kind of heroes? Mountain men.
I realize I’m more likely to meet Sasquatch out here than a real-life, hulking, handsome recluse who will come to my rescue if I get lost.
It’s just a silly fantasy…until my eyes land on him. My mountain man. My hero.
Cruel is the fact that Gunnar is deploying in just three days.
He says I don’t have to wait for him.
But that’s not how the story is supposed to go.
