Be With Me (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781965224847)

A steamy, emotional small-town romance with all the feels from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

One wild moment. Two guarded hearts. A firefighter who never meant to fall.

It started with a wolverine-and somehow ended with forever.

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.

I never planned to fall in love. Not ever. I'm the guy who laughs everything off, the 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. She's hiding secrets. Before I know it, she's working at my family's wilderness resort-walls up, defenses sky-high. Every time I catch a glimpse of her vulnerability, I want to protect her. Hold her close. Claim her.

When she's threatened, I'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Because somewhere between the slow burn, the sparks, and the small-town chaos, Adele became my forever.

A steamy small-town firefighter romance packed with heart & heat, found family, emotional depth, and a fierce, sassy heroine who challenges a golden-retriever hero with a grumpy edge at every turn. Perfect for readers who crave slow-burn chemistry, heartfelt angst, protective heroes who fall hard and forever, and a happily ever after worth fighting for.

*A full-length, standalone romance.
