Guardian of the Mountain by Lucky Moon

In the heart of the wilderness, their icy feud will turn into a fire they can’t control…

Beckett, the passionate rock climber turned guardian of Pine Peak, thrives in the wild. His heart is as tough as the mountains he protects. But when a certain infuriatingly strong-willed Little from his past arrives at Pine Peak, his tranquil existence is shattered.
Laura, a dedicated forest conservationist, is all about preserving nature. When she’s offered the opportunity to help formulate a wildlife conservation plan at Pine Peak, it’s her dream job come true. That is, until she discovers Beckett, the man who used to make her blood boil in frustration, is part of the deal.
Their reunion is harsher than a Pine Peak winter, their antagonism for each other still very much alive. But as they are forced to work together, the beautiful mountain setting starts to thaw their icy resentment, turning it into a spark of attraction that neither anticipated.
Laura was prepared for many challenges at Pine Peak, but resisting a gruff yet caring Daddy Dom wasn’t one of them. And Beckett, who’d rather face a mountain lion than admit his growing feelings for Laura, finds himself increasingly drawn to her strength and determination.
But when a huge secret threatens their fledgling relationship, will they find the courage they need to climb higher, or fall deep into a crevice of despair?
