Shaken by Him
(2024)(The third book in the Mountain Man's Protective Heart series)
A Novella by Ivy Noir
Brody
The last thing I need is some wide-eyed city girl looking to find herself on my doorstep.
But there’s Olivia, all fire and grace, making it impossible to ignore her.
Doesn’t matter that she’s my patient, doesn’t matter that I should keep my hands to myself – every time she’s near, my control gets thinner.
She doesn’t understand what she’s doing to me, how every word, every look she gives me drives me closer to breaking.
I’ve got half a mind to pull her close and tell her she’s not walking out of this place without understanding just how much I want her, but I grit my teeth and keep it professional.
She’s got this idea that she can resist me, keep me at arm’s length, but she doesn’t know me yet.
I’ll be damned if I let her walk away without knowing she’s mine.
Olivia
I came here for a fresh start, a chance to rebuild, but every time I’m around him, my resolve slips.
Brody Callahan is dangerous for me – not because he’s intense and gruff, but because he makes me want to forget all my careful plans.
His presence, that stormy gaze, pulls me in like nothing ever has.
I’ve fought hard to stay in control of my life, to keep my emotions in check, but with him, everything shatters.
His touch – firm, assured, demanding – makes me want to give in, to let him strip away every barrier I’ve held so tightly to.
I tell myself to keep it professional, to focus on my recovery, but my heart pounds louder every time he’s near.
Do I keep my distance and protect what’s left of my carefully constructed walls?
Or do I step forward, let him in, and risk feeling more than I ever planned?
“Shaken by Him” is a steamy, standalone, mountain man romance where a fierce alpha male meets his match in a curvy, determined city girl seeking a new beginning. With undeniable chemistry and a possessive protector, their connection defies every boundary, leading to an unforgettable HEA!
Genre: Romance
