Stuck in the Mud by Shea Balik

Come join us for a fun-filled vacation in Mystic Pines, Alaska, where the weather isn’t always warm, but our hospitality is.
Kip Larson moved to Mystic Pines to fulfill his dream of owning his own spa. Too bad Alaska wasn’t the nature lover’s paradise he’d hoped it would be, especially when he was stuck knee deep in mud with a grizzly bear staring him down and licking his chops. Kip had always been an animal lover but that was put to the test as he had to decide which of them should die.
Rogue Jennings had grown up in Mystic Pines which, at the time, had been declining into a dying town. Now he’s back and happy to be so. Hunting has been in his blood since the day he could hold a rifle, which seemed to cause a rift between him and the man he was beginning to care for. Can Rogue show Kip that if he’d open his mind and his heart, despite their differences, they could build a wonderful life together?
