Timber Line

Twenty-three years on the mountain taught him how to survive. One night in a blizzard taught him how to live. Judson Lang is a granite wall of a man. As the foreman of a remote Cascade logging camp, he's spent forty-five years keeping his head down, doing the grueling work, and burying his desires where the mountain can't reach them. He doesn't want. He doesn't need. Then Levi Torres shows up. At twenty-four, Levi is everything Judson isn't: out, unafraid, and relentlessly alive. He's also the newest hire on Judson's crew. Judson tries to maintain a cold, professional distance, but when a massive avalanche traps them in a ten-by-ten emergency shack with subzero temperatures and one narrow cot, survival means sharing body heat. What starts as a desperate bid to stay warm ignites a fire that threatens to burn down the fortress Judson has built around himself. But daylight brings the reality of the camp, a hostile crew, and a lifetime of hiding. Levi knows what he's worth, and he refuses to be anyone's dirty secret. Judson has to decide if he's willing to risk his authority, his reputation, and the only life he's ever known for the only man he's ever loved. Timber Line is a high-angst, high-heat MM romance featuring forced proximity, an age gap, and a rugged mountain foreman finally finding a reason to come down to sea level.
