Hazel
He came to renovate my clinic, and now he shows up before dawn, hands me coffee without being asked, and goes completely still every time I get too close. Like he's holding something back he doesn't trust himself to let loose. He's the biggest, quietest, most careful man I've ever met. And I keep thinking about what it would take to make all that restraint finally break apart in my hands.

Bear
I took the job. I didn't plan on her. She's warm and direct and she looks at me without flinching, and I've spent three years isolated because I know what these hands can do. So I hold back. I keep every part of myself on a short leash around her. But she keeps getting closer, keeps looking at me like she wants the leash gone. One of these days I'm going to stop being careful and show her exactly how these hands move when I let them.

Bear's Restraint is book three in the Guardians of Blackwood Falls series. A grumpy gentle giant who's terrified of his own strength. A sunshine who wants every bit of it. Forced proximity, slow burn, and a man who falls first and falls hard. Standalone HEA.
