After years as a Navy SEAL, Dakota Carson has retreated to a remote cabin in the Tetons, seeking distance from a world that brings painful memories. Even a devastating encounter with a grizzly bear cannot persuade him to welcome help easily. Deputy sheriff Shelby Kincaid finds his stubborn independence frustrating, yet the connection she feels with him makes it impossible to remain detached. As Shelby begins to reach the guarded man beneath his injuries and nightmares, Dakota must confront the possibility that seclusion is no longer what he wants. When danger threatens Shelby, the instincts he has tried to bury become essential once more. Lindsay McKenna brings romantic suspense to a story of trust, vulnerability and the difficult decision to let someone close.
