Bark and Bleed

Tamsin Eyre flees the abusive control of a religious cult into the freezing Montana wilderness, only to step into a bear trap and nearly perish. She awakens in a remote cabin locked securely inside by Kellan Rook, a massive and heavily scarred trapper who has not spoken a word in twenty five years. While Kellan uses his absolute authority and a heavy iron bolt to keep her confined, Tamsin slowly realizes her silent captor communicates a fierce devotion through his protective actions rather than cruelty. As a brutal winter rages and the boundaries between captor and captive blur into a consuming need, they must unite to survive the unforgiving elements and the dangerous cult members tracking her footprints through the snow.
