Book 1 of the clean, suspenseful Ragin’ Moon Refuge series!
Once you’ve been betrayed, trusting again is the scariest gamble of all.
Becca Pierson takes her vows seriously. So even when her husband’s secret gambling addiction shakes her world, she soldiers on, sure they can work things out. But reality soon proves otherwise, and she decides she must put their 10-year-old son David first and file for divorce. When a loan shark barges into her apartment and demands the little cash she has left, she takes David and flees 400 miles across Montana to the only place that will shelter them–Ragin’ Moon Refuge.
Tony Lascari’s family owns Ragin’ Moon, and he has seen many a broken woman pass through. He’s never been tempted, for he knows the baggage they carry. Life is so much easier when you only have to consider yourself. But when he picks up Becca from the bus depot, he’s immediately drawn to the frightened young mother who brings out his instincts to protect. But with Becca’s future so uncertain, he knows their relationship must stay platonic.
Becca also feels the attraction, but needs to focus on protecting her son, which may entail fleeing again. There’s simply too much at stake to be distracted by Tony’s charm and rugged good looks. No matter how kind he is. No matter how safe he makes her feel.
Will she risk a second chance at love with Tony? Or will lingering regrets and apprehensions about the future forever bind her to the present?
A clean, small town, romantic suspense set in western Montana.

Just when things were finally looking up …
Belle Cosgrove is incredibly frustrated. Four years after the death of her young husband, she’s finally managed to box up her grief and guilt and move on, having convinced herself she neither wants nor deserves another relationship. But now that her massage clinic is thriving, she’s just adopted a dog, and the future is looking bright, her new found peace is threatened by disturbing notes and gifts from an anonymous stalker.
Huckleberry Ridge police officer, Woody Bannock, has decided it’s much safer to maintain the status quo as a bachelor than risk adding to the long list of women he’s managed to disappoint in the past—including his own mother. He’s got a job he loves, a place of his own and a dog who adores him. But when he’s asked to check into Belle’s stalking allegations, he’s thrown off kilter by his powerful attraction to the charming and vulnerable red-head.
Despite the magnetism between them, the reasons for not becoming entangled are much stronger, and both shy away from any commitment. Even after Belle’s stalker escalates, she hesitates to involve Woody for fear of further wounding her already damaged heart.
When her safety is truly threatened, she has no choice but to trust him … but is it too late?
