Rock Creek #4

My Mountain Man's Surrender

Rate this book
Snowed in with the mountain man, I'll never meet my deadline.
Good thing he's willing to help me with some research for my romance novel.


She’s innocent, sweet, and far too brave, heading out into a snowstorm just before dark.

It doesn’t take long for me to track her down, shivering and half-frozen in the snow. I bring her back to a rustic hunting cabin, determined to get her warm.

But when she reveals she’s a virgin who wants me to help her "research" her romance books, my own temperature skyrockets. I’ve always been the no-strings-attached type, so I’m more than happy to play along.

Still, there’s something about this girl, something that digs deeper than any other. After a few days, I realize I don’t just want to keep her warm — I want to keep her forever.

Authors My Mountain Man’s Surrender is a short, very steamy instalove romance with an over-the-top protective hero. No cheating, no cliffhangers and a very happily ever after, guaranteed.

There is something so satisfying about the playboy falling at first sight! Our heroine does as well, and after getting snowed in together, well, they have a pretty good time acting things out. Once back in the real world, it takes a grand gesture to keep things on track for their HEA <3

Chloe is at the lodge to writes an article about it. She was warned by Ryder who checked her in not to go out as a snow storm is coming. After Chloe is in her room and changes she looks outside and it looks fine. Ignoring what Ryder said she heads out anyway. Ryder starts looking for her to show her around only to find out she had gone out in the snow. He immediately goes looking for her and also lets his brothers know what is going on. Once he finds her she is freezing and storm had hit harder than he thought. Thw=ey weren't far from his families cabin they had for emergencis=es. Inside he got a fire going and that is when it got even hotter inside. They had an instant attraction when they saw each other at the lodge and their attraction only grew.
When they were able to get back to the lodge, she was able to write her review and stay with Ryder for the foreseeable future.

Staying at the Wolf’s Wild Wilderness Lodge to write a story, Chloe meets Ryder and it’s instalove. Ryder, known as a playboy, was told to be on his best behavior to receive a glowing review of the lodge. After their initial introduction, Chloe was determined to go snowshoeing. But, while out in the wilderness, a snow storm gets intense and she is lost. Ryder tracks her down and head to a cabin until the storm passes. Chloe tells Ryder that she is also a romance novelist and needs his help for research. Will Ryder help her out or will he steer clear of her? This was a short, steamy instalove story. The chemistry between the characters was sizzling. Highly recommend this hot story.

The book starts off with Ryder hitting on a busty blonde and her friend. A lot of talk about him being a player and being with more than dozens of women. I almost deleted the story as manho's are a no-go for me. I trudged on and it ended up being a sweet but steamy read. Like his brothers, he finally found his one and only. I'm glad they got their HEA but I seriously could have done without all of his past (and almost current) mentions of his enjoying the company of many.

My Mountain Man's Surrender is Book 4 in the Rock Creek series about the Wolf Brothers. It's a steamy, instalove, OTT, opposites-attract, age-gap, forced-proximity, virgin gets her hunk romance. Ryder is a hunky playboy. Chloe is a romance writer and virgin. When the two end up snowed-in during a storm, Chloe asks Ryder for some hands-on education for her book. He is more than happy to be her teacher, and it gets hot 🔥 hot 🔥 hot 🔥. This was a fun and steamy read with hot chemistry, a bit of angst, and a happy ending.

Ryder & Chloe

🌨ARC Review🛀🏽

My Mountain Man's Surrender by Lena Rae is the next Wolf Brother Story in the Rock Creek Series. Playboy Ryder falls fast for writer Chloe! 😏 A rescue in a snow storm brings Ryder & Chloe to a hunting cabin to get warm, wait it out & do *research* for Chloe's next romance book. This is a quick read, ägë-gäp, mountain man, almost insta-love, some drama, HEA & future Epilogues story. Ryder is an attentive,  thorough & caring teacher to Chloe for her all of her research... 🥵🔥💋  A sizzling read to enjoy!

I've been following this series, which has kept me interested for a while now. I like the whole mountain man trope and how these men would fall fast and hard for their women. Chloe and Ryder are a good couple together. From the moment they met, you could see that sparks were flying for these two. I liked their story. It was witty and mildly steamy. Not my favorite in the series but still good if you need something quick.

I never thought research could be so fun and exciting, but it certain was for Ryder and Chloe.
This story is steamy enough to melt snow and heat it up for a nice, hot, bubble bath. The chemistry between Ryder and Chloe is amazing.
This is a standalone with no cliffhanger, although it is book 4 of the AWESOME “Rock Creek” series.

My Mountain Man’s Surrender is steamy and sweet! I love the he falls first and instantly scene—and trapped with one bed? Oh yes!!! Ryder the ladies man has been slayed by a curvy and cute romance writing virgin. I loved every moment of this novella—from Chloe’s sassy banter to Ryder’s desire to make her every wish come true. This delectably delicious story was unputdownable!.

He is the playboy of the brothers and is warned to stay away from a reporter doing a story. Well she gets herself lost and guess who has to find her. This is a quick insta love story. I enjoyed watching Ryder fall hard and have to grovel a bit.

Hello Ryder. This was one of best Instaloves I've ever read. All the sweetness and ALL the heat. I'm still sweating.
Per the About the Author, the story is under the "secret spicy pen name of a USA Today bestselling" author. Color me unsurprised, but keep them coming.

Chloe and Ryder are a great match. You can tell when they first meet each other sparks fly. A romance writer who needs some inspiration, will Ryder accept. Read on to see.
