My Mountain Man Valentine by Annee Jones

He’s her mountain man; she’s his secret Valentine…

Tessa
As the quiet owner of The Velvet Book in Hope Peak, Montana, I’ve always been more comfortable lost in fictional love stories than living them. So when Ryder Hawke—the town’s rugged wilderness tour guide and my brother’s best friend—asks me to be his fake girlfriend, I hesitate. We’re complete opposites: he’s adventurous and wild, while I prefer the coziness of my bookstore. But I can’t resist helping him out, even if it means risking my heart. Then I start receiving steamy, anonymous Valentine notes that make my pulse race, and I can’t help but wonder: could Ryder be the one behind them?

Ryder
Living off the grid and guiding wilderness tours in Hope Peak suits me just fine. But when my ex suddenly reappears and starts stirring up trouble, I need a quick fix—who better than Tessa Voss, my best friend’s little sister and the one woman I know I can trust? Pretending to date Tessa should be a simple arrangement to keep my ex at bay. But the more time I spend with her, the more I realize our fake relationship is starting to feel dangerously real. Still, can Tessa find it in her heart to risk everything she’s ever known for a chance at love?

This book is perfect for fans of short, steamy holiday romances, hunky mountain men, and heart-melting small-town love stories. Filled with Valentine’s Day intrigue, a cozy bookstore setting, and sizzling chemistry between complete opposites, Tessa and Ryder’s story is sure to leave you swooning from start to finish!
