Taken by the Wylde Lumberjack

A Steamy Mountain Man Romance

By: Cindy Smoke

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

He's reckless. Loud. Absolutely infuriating. And he will not stop looking at me.

I came to Wylde Mountain for the timber.

The land. The trees. The work.

I did not come here for Koda Owen.

Wild. Intense. The kind of man who does everything at full speed and apologizes for nothing.

He's competitive about everything. He's loud about everything. He looks at me like I'm a challenge he's already decided to win.

I don't do challenges.

I do my job. I hold my ground. I don't bend for anyone, especially not a man with tattoos on his forearms and a grin that says he knows exactly what he's doing.

But Koda doesn't stop.

He doesn't back off. Doesn't give up. Doesn't take "no" as an answer when the question is whether we're going to keep pretending we don't want to tear each other apart.

And when we finally stop fighting it?

When all that intensity turns from friction to fire?

It burns.

Everything burns.

And I don't want to put it out.
