Eden is off-limits in every possible way—fifteen years too young, ambitious, and fiery as a dragon’s breath. She’s spent eight years silently wanting me, yet I’m the last man who should touch her. She deserves everything—love, desire, a life free from the wreckage of my past. But the moment she becomes my wife, even in name only, the pull between us becomes impossible to ignore. Her ex-fiancé is circling back, determined to reclaim her. But I won’t let that happen. I’m supposed to protect her, not want her for myself. Yet every look, every touch, tempts me to cross that line.

They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Break The Norms & Thrive In Retirement!
In this beautifully produced audiobook, Rhonda Gudger reveals how seniors can tear through the walls of the boring retirement stereotype and thrive in their golden years!
What sets this book apart is her warmth and passion and her detailed, step by step list of 125 "dynamic activities" to crush it in retirement. Painting, golfing, music, reading, travelling, relationships, social life, transition strategies, diet and exercise tips to maximize your health for proper enjoyment of life, and more are covered in these pages.
Many people secretly dread retirement because they see it as a death sentence, and it's understandably painful to walk away from decades of work life and work relationships and into the next chapter. Rhonda's guide is the perfect resource to ignite your imagination and enable you to live your best life in this difficult stage. Highly Recommend!
