Melting Hearts: A Steamy Forced-Proximity MM Romance (Millbrook Men #8)
Ava Baxter
One bed—and nowhere left to run.
Travel nurse Evan Parker lives life on temporary contracts—new town, new job, no attachments. Commitment has never been part of the plan. So when a brutal winter storm sends his car into a ditch outside Millbrook, the last thing he expects is to be rescued by a grumpy, reclusive artist who clearly doesn’t want company.
Adrian Blackwood came to the woods to hide. After a heartbreak that shattered him, solitude feels safer than hope. Until a snowed-in stranger with an easy smile and curious eyes crashes straight through his defenses.
With the storm raging and the roads closed, Evan and Adrian are trapped together—sharing meals, sharing warmth… and sharing a single bed neither of them can stop thinking about. Attraction ignites. Tension snaps. Stolen kisses turn into heated nights that feel anything but temporary.
But snowstorms don’t last forever.
When the roads finally clear, Evan will have to keep running like he always does—or risk everything for the man who makes staying feel like home.
A tender, steamy small-town MM romance about forced proximity, one-bed temptation, and discovering that sometimes love finds you when you’re completely snowed in.
