Rugged Mountain Man's Hired Nanny
(2025)(The third book in the Mountain Man Love Stories series)
A Story by Jess Winters
One storm. One stranger. Everything changes.
Hank Walker lives by rulessunrise chores, quiet dinners, fences that keep the world out.
Then Nora Blake shows up. A backpack on her shoulder. Secrets in her eyes. A calm voice that even his wild little girl listens to.
Ellie picks her. The town gossips. And Hank’s careful order starts to crack.
She’s not here to fall for anyone. He’s not ready to risk his heart again.
But one late night in the kitchen one brush of hands and all the walls start to crumble.
The kiss by the woodstove isn’t planned. It’s desperate. It’s tender. It’s everything they shouldn’t wantand can’t stop needing.
Then come the storms no one can predict.
A summons folded in Nora’s pocket.
Threats whispered on the porch.
A clipboard that could take Ellie away.
And a hospital call that rips open the past Hank never talks about.
Now there’s nowhere to run. No time to hide.
Only seven days to prove that family isn’t written on paperit’s built in the firelight, in promises, in the way two broken hearts learn to stay.
He’s the mountain man who keeps everyone safe.
She’s the woman strong enough to save him, too.
Stay for the storm. Stay for the kiss. Stay for the love that refuses to break.
