Lock and Key

Family is everything. Dakota Blake should know, considering she doesn't have any. That's why it was so important to find one to call her own. But Dakota never expected the life she was intent on building would lead to such heartache. Jack Spears knows all about loss. Having suffered through it, he can recognize the signs of it. The walls. The icy personality. The bitterness. When Jack meets Dakota, he's immediately drawn to her. Maybe it's because she's gorgeous; maybe it's curiosity. Or, it might be the fact that he knows she's suffering and can't turn his back on her. By herself in a cabin in the Teton Mountains of Wyoming, Dakota finds herself ill-prepared for the harsh winter following her bitter divorce. That's when Jack steps in, gives her what she's needed, and makes it impossible to keep her heart where she thinks it's safest, under lock and key.
