Green Mountain Guardians Series by Gia Cobie

This isn’t how it was supposed to be. My move to the small town of Bliss was supposed to be a new beginning. It was everything I’d dreamed about—the quaint downtown, a cozy little house to make my own, and miles of Vermont wilderness to explore just minutes away. I never expected my dream to turn into a nightmare. The man who seemed so nice in the beginning turned out to be anything but. So I broke it off, ignored his pleas to forgive him, and moved on with my life... moreThis isn’t how it was supposed to be. My move to the small town of Bliss was supposed to be a new beginning. It was everything I’d dreamed about—the quaint downtown, a cozy little house to make my own, and miles of Vermont wilderness to explore just minutes away. I never expected my dream to turn into a nightmare. The man who seemed so nice in the beginning turned out to be anything but. So I broke it off, ignored his pleas to forgive him, and moved on with my life. Except he wasn’t going to let me go that easily. Now I’m his captive, and I learned the hard way what happens if I disobey him. But when he’s about to commit a crime against someone I know, someone I like… I have to do something, no matter the consequences. She was the last person I expected to see. I wasn’t afraid to confront the person breaking into my store. As a former Green Beret, I’d faced far more dangerous enemies. But I wasn’t expecting to find a woman left behind, unconscious and injured. And not just any woman, but one I felt a connection with from the first time I met her. It didn’t make sense. Sweet, smart, beautiful Winter robbing my store? Possibly working with an accomplice who double crossed her? Even though logic says maybe, my gut says no. When she tells me her story, I’m even more certain. Winter’s not a criminal, but an innocent woman. A woman whose captor is still out there. There’s no way I’m letting him hurt her again. Mountain Hero. is the first book in the. Green Mountain Guardians. series. It has a protective alpha hero, a brave and sweet heroine, a team of former Special Forces, lots of twists and turns, action and danger, forced proximity, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. Happily-ever-after guaranteed! (And expect some cameos from the Blade and Arrow Security team as well! ). less

I was living my dream… until it turned into a nightmare. My little cabin in the woods of Vermont was everything I’d hoped it would be. Quiet. Rustic. Beautiful. On top of that, my only neighbor was the most intriguing man I’d met in years. Then one night my cozy sanctuary was invaded, and I ended up facing off against a man who tried to kill. me. On the run, injured and scared, I fled my house in search of protection. Even in the midst of my terror, there wasn’t a question of who I would go to... moreI was living my dream… until it turned into a nightmare.

Even in the midst of my terror, there wasn’t a question of who I would go to. Knox. My neighbor-turned-friend. A man I would have considered dating had things been different. And highly skilled from his years in the Army. As I hoped, Knox didn’t hesitate to come to my aid. But the man who came after me is still out there, and until he’s caught, I’ll never be safe.

But the only woman I’d consider opening up to has never given a sign she wants anything more than friendship. Do I still think about Lark and wonder? Absolutely.

I thought I’d come to terms with my solitary existence. Most days, I even told myself I preferred it. After all, the dogs at my shelter didn’t ask questions about my appearance. They didn’t stare at my scars. They didn’t make me feel ugly. Then I met Gage. He came to the shelter to adopt a dog, but even after that, he kept returning... moreI thought I’d come to terms with my solitary existence. Most days, I even told myself I preferred it. After all, the dogs at my shelter didn’t ask questions about my appearance. They didn’t stare at my scars. They didn’t make me feel ugly. Then I met Gage. He came to the shelter to adopt a dog, but even after that, he kept returning. Was he just coming to help, like he claimed? Or could I dare hope he wanted to spend time with me? Would he? Handsome, brave, heroic Gage, who could have any woman he wanted? Could he possibly see me as more than just the quiet, reclusive woman who ran the dog rescue outside town? More than the scarred woman everyone else looked away from? I liked Rory from the first time I met her. How could I not? She was caring. Smart. Beautiful. Even though I knew it couldn’t go anywhere, it didn’t stop me from wanting to spend time with her. Friends was enough, I told myself over and over. It was all I could offer. It was all my wounded self-esteem would allow me. Until I found her unconscious and injured in the woods, with no memory of how she got there. Until I held her in my arms and realized I’d do anything to protect her. Until I realized just being friends wasn’t enough. But first, I need to make sure she’s safe. That the person who hurt her is caught. And I’ll draw on all the skills I learned in the Special Forces, along with the help of my Green Mountain Guardians teammates, to make sure no one hurts her again. Mountain Defender is the third book in the Green Mountain Guardians series. It has a protective wounded warrior hero, a heroine with her own scars, a team of Special Ops veterans, action and danger, forced proximity, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments, all set in small-town Vermont. No cliffhangers and a happily-ever-after guaranteed! (Can be read as a standalone! ). less

I moved here hoping it would help me forget. Not completely, of course. How could I, given what I did? But in the three years I’ve lived in this cozy town nestled in the Green Mountains of Vermont, the memories have dulled. And though I never thought it possible, there are days I’m even happy. Or I was. Until I found myself in a sinking car after my brakes failed, only to discover later it wasn’t an accident... moreI moved here hoping it would help me forget. Not completely, of course. How could I, given what I did? But in the three years I’ve lived in this cozy town nestled in the Green Mountains of Vermont, the memories have dulled. And though I never thought it possible, there are days I’m even happy. Or I was. Until I found myself in a sinking car after my brakes failed, only to discover later it wasn’t an accident. Until I find out the nightmare I thought I left behind in Boston somehow followed me here. When I saw Hazel’s car sinking into the river, I didn’t hesitate to go after her. Not just because, as a former Green Beret, I had the skills to save her. But because the idea of losing her to the cold, inky depths was unthinkable. Not Hazel, with her gorgeous smile that lights up a room. Not Hazel, whose haunted eyes remind me so much of my own. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to hurt her. But if they try again, they’ll have to come through me. And with my skills as a security expert, along with the rest of my team, we’ll keep her safe, no matter what it takes. Mountain Savior has a protective (and brilliant computer expert) hero, a heroine struggling with her past, small-town vibes, a security team of Special Ops veterans, found family, edge-of-your-seat twists, and sweet and steamy moments. Can be read as a standalone and an HEA is guaranteed. less
