Be With Me

He hides his grief behind charm and easy smiles. She’s spent her whole life surviving on her own. Falling in love is out of the question.

The first time I laid eyes on Adele Jacks, she was staring down a wild animal, bold and unforgettable. She stole my breath before I even knew her name. And I’m the guy who doesn’t lose his breath over anyone.

I never planned to fall in love. Not ever. I’m the guy who laughs everything off, the charming cynic who hides his scars behind jokes. But Adele? She’s a force of nature who upends my life.
She’s tough, she’s smart, and she’s hiding something. She’s the kind of wilderness guide who can out-hike me any day and stare down a grizzly without blinking. Before I know it, she’s working at my family’s wilderness resort—walls up, defenses sky-high. She’s slipping through the cracks in my heart every time I catch the vulnerability she tries to hide.

The longer I know her, the harder it becomes to keep things light and uncomplicated the way I always have. Because underneath the flirting and easy smiles, I’ve spent years avoiding anything that feels too real.p
But with Adele, I want to protect her, claim her, and make the world safe for her.

When a ghost from her past crosses our path, and I see the flash of something she thought she’d buried — I realize there’s nothing I won’t do to take care of her. Because somewhere between the slow burn, the reluctant sparks, and the small-town chaos, Adele became my forever. Scars and all.

Even if falling for her means finally risking my own heart, too.
