Schooled By The Mountain Man

There’s something special about the places we return to. The spots filled with memories, even if they’re a little overgrown, a little messy, and haunted by more than just raccoons. Schooled by the Mountain Man is my love letter to second chances, awkward reunions, and finding unexpected connection in the places we thought we’d left behind.

Tessa returns to her family’s rundown lake cabin expecting a quick fix-and-flip project. What she doesn’t expect? Her childhood crush, now a gorgeous mountain man with a side order of being a teacher and coach. He's always ready with an axe or tool. And, he's right next door.

Liam is the kind of man who’s built walls around his heart, but when he sees Tessa again … let’s just say those walls don’t stand a chance. Mild forced proximity. Banter with sparks. Critter-related disasters. This story made me laugh out loud while writing and also took me through a few emotional tunnels I didn’t see coming.

If you’ve ever had a summer you’ll never forget—or a person you never stopped noticing—this one’s for you. 💚 ... Opal
