Rescued By the Ranger by Brynn Hale

She thought she had permission to be in his family’s mountain home. He’s tired of women taking advantage of his big heart. But there’s something different in this lost woman. She and her daughter need this ex-Ranger and his big heart.

Leesa
My divorce is finally final, and I just needed to get away from my crazy ex-husband.
A coworker offers up his cabin near Black Timber Peak and I jump at the chance to spend the holiday in the mountains with my daughter Jazzy.
When a man with eyes as green as the pines crashes our mother-daughter fun time, saying that I don’t have permission to be in his family’s mountain home, I point out that with the storm brewing on the mountain there’s no way I can leave.
Once he settles down, I start to understand why Rhodes is the way he is.
Time in the military has been hard on him.
After he rescues Jazzy from almost being mountain lion food, can I save him right back?

Rhodes
She’s not supposed to be here.
I’m supposed to be spending my holiday alone and I can’t hide my irritation.
Sure, I’m grumpy, but I’ve been hurt by every woman I’ve ever laid eyes on.
Leesa is hurt, too and I can’t help but want to see this strong woman come back to her own, even if it doesn’t mean we end up together.
Fighting off a mountain lion wasn’t something they taught in Ranger school, but sometimes you have to do what you have to.
And I’ll do anything for these two.
Including falling in love.
