Entwined by the Forest God by Evelyn Embers
Amaya Yazzie is sick of the desert heat, the temp jobs, and the ache of homesickness that creeps in every time she serves a smiling tourist. So when her ancient car breaks down in a nowhere town called Coldwater Springs, she doesn’t fight it. She walks straight into the forest to clear her head—and stumbles into something she was never meant to see.

Sylvain has lived a thousand lifetimes, but none so quietly as this one. The forgotten forest god tends his grove, serves up beer and venison at The Hungry Stag, and keeps his distance from the town built on the bones of his mountain. He’s content in his solitude… or so he tells himself. But when Amaya trespasses on sacred ground, something stirs. Something hungry. Something lonely.

Amaya isn’t looking for trouble. But she is looking for a job, and bartending at The Hungry Stag gets her close to the grumpy, secretive man she can’t stop thinking about. Sparks fly, boundaries blur, and before long, she’s caught between the call of the woods and the warmth of home.

But when outside forces threaten the sacred lands—and Amaya’s future—Sylvain must make an impossible let her go to keep her safe from the storm he’s becoming, or reveal the ancient power he’s tried to bury to protect the woman he never meant to love.

Welcome to Coldwater Springs, MT—where the wilderness is untamed, the monsters are lonely, and passion is a force of nature.

Entwined by the Forest God is a spicy, short (19k word) monster romance featuring a grumpy, ancient forest god and a determined Indigenous heroine. Cozy, steamy, low angst, no third-act breakup, and a guaranteed HEA. This can be read as a standalone or as part of the Monsters of Coldwater Springs series. For readers who love grumpy heroes with strong heroines, forest magic, and protective, touch-starved monsters!
