Wall Street Journal best-selling author Nicole Snow returns with a steamy and electrifying stand-alone romance thriller where one ginormous protector goes all-in to win Miss Unlucky.

You know the drill. Big hands, big feet, humongous - yikes. We're not going there for the thousandth time. I've got small-town problems aplenty and zero time for Paxton “Alaska” Charter. Crushing on smoke-show men with caveman vibes can't end well.

Sure, he saved my little coffee shop from total ruin once. Yes, my ovaries melt watching single dad of the century with his little boy. Of course, I'd sleep like a baby if I let him work his former SEAL hero magic on my mess. That's not why I'm freaking out.

Nobody told me how devastatingly kind Alaska can be. Or the fact that his stubborn heart's even more guarded than mine. If he comes barreling into my life, it's certain doom. And it's all thrown to the wind the day his kiss claims me.

We have to say good-bye. Right now. Before it's too late. He can't keep sheltering my body, stealing my heart, and igniting my soul. I won't drag this gentle giant down my abyss of ugly secrets. But Alaska has other plans - and they scare me. Because they all involve impossible happily ever afters, no matter the cost.

Full-length small-town stand-alone romance heaven. The butterflies come in force when one large and in-charge single dad steps in to rescue the girl who abandoned all hope and forgot how to love.
