Saving Shelby

She swore off men…
…there was a very sexy complication.

After her marriage implodes, single mom Shelby Reid is determined to reclaim her life.

Step one: no more men.

Step two: chase her dream of becoming a wilderness guide.

Simple enough… until a tipsy night out lands her in an unexpected week‑long survival course.

Enter Ian McLean—ridiculously handsome, a little bit reckless, and the last man she should be noticing.

The attraction between them is instant—and mutual… mostly. But he's giving mixed messages.

One minute he's kissing her under a waterfall.

The next he's pulling away, distracted…

He's not the only one lacking focus. With her libido ignoring her no-men policy, she struggles to learn the survival techniques and keep her emotional distance.

When her determination to keep her heart locked down leads to a dangerous canoe accident, only Ian's instincts—and his need to protect her—can save her.

Surviving the wilderness is one thing.

Figuring out whether she can trust him with her future is another.

Because the real risk begins after the rescue—especially for her heart.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Saving Shelby is a closed‑door romance featuring a single mom rebuilding her life, a broody survival instructor, a hint of danger, and a hard‑won second chance at love.
