Sheltered By the Mountain Man by Ash Henry

He spent his life protecting others. Now he’s the one who needs to be rescued.

I came to White Falls for solitude and to heal the many wounds I racked up in the service, not create more by falling down an embankment while looking for my dog. The dog may be fine, but as a strong storm rolls in, suddenly I’m the one who needs rescuing. It’s a bitter pill to swallow after spending years helping others.
Then a curvy angel who’s lost in the woods finds me and gets my sorry ass home.
She’s sweet, shy, and adorably awkward. Way too young for me, but so damn cute I could howl into the wind whipping outside my cabin as the storm rages. I didn’t think I wanted anyone in my life, but this little librarian is making me rethink every plan I had for the future.
The problem? I don’t have anything to offer that could tempt her to stay, except a battle-scarred heart and a dog with no boundaries.
Who would want that?
Sheltered by the Mountain Man is a steamy, age-gap, snowed-in romance featuring a wounded ex-military hero, an adorably awkward librarian, and one very nosy dog. All Ash Henry books come with an HEA promise: Hot, protective heroes. Sweet and steamy vibes. No cliffhangers, cheating, or heroines who pack lingerie but, not a flashlight.

Mountains keep their secrets, but can love heal their scars?
The untamed beauty of the mountains is no match for these scarred men. Fate brings women who hold the power to mend their wounds, but first, they must navigate the rugged terrain of their pasts. As they confront their scars, they discover that true healing can only come from one thing… love.
Each story in ‘Whispered Echoes’ delves into the lives of our wounded heroes and the courageous women who dare to love them.
