My Ruthless Mountain Man by Ash Henry

II came to Solace Ridge to start over and mend the past. Not fall for my best friend’s little sister.

Funny how life can change in minutes.
One moment, I’m contemplating whether I should stop uselessly trying to repair the relationship I ruined six years ago with my best friend, and the next, I’m staring at the only woman who ever made my heart race—his little sister.
Kendall, all grown up and graced with the kind of womanly curves that give me dirty thoughts, is standing on my porch like a fallen angel who’s been through hell.
She’s fifteen years younger than me. I shouldn’t be anywhere near her.
But I also can’t deny her anything, especially when she needs my help. She claims it’s for her brother, but once I hear the way he’s put her in danger, there’s only one thing I care about—protecting her.
And as she easily slips into my life, I face a crossroads I never saw coming. Keep the woman I’m falling for and lose my best friend forever, or mend fences with him and set aside my only chance at happiness.

All Ash Henry books come with an HEA promise: Hot, protective heroes, steamy sweet heat, and never any cliffhangers, cheating or heroines too dumb to live.
