🪖 Valor in the Mountains 📅 Launching: Mid-February to Mid-March 2026

They’ve served their time in the armed forces.
They’ve faced battles most people could never imagine.
They carry the scars—emotional and physical—to prove it.

Now these gruff, off-the-grid mountain men want nothing more than peace and solitude.
What they don’t expect? For her to walk into their lives.

She’s half his age.
She’s completely off-limits—maybe she’s the landlord’s daughter, his daughter’s best friend, his best friend’s little girl, the sheriff’s daughter, his younger nanny, or the girl next door he watched grow up.
She’s the temptation he swore he’d never touch.

And yet, in the quiet of the mountains, the lines start to blur…
and resisting her might be the hardest mission of his life.
