Bea When my brother has an accident on a hiking trip in the Alaskan wilderness, I rush to his bedside. Once I’m sure he’s ok, my thoughts shift in another direction. To his best friend, Hank.
I’ve had a crush on the pilot/cook for years. And I’d give just about anything to spend a night alone with him.
And it would seem Mother Nature is on my side when a flash storm forces us to make an emergency landing deep in the Alaskan wilderness...
Hank After spending the past week—okay, decade—trying to keep my hands off of my best friend’s sister, the last thing I need is to spend a night with her alone in the mountains.
I’ve been alone most of my life. Both by circumstance and choice. But the more time I spend with Bea, the more I’d like to change that.
There are some lines that are better left uncrossed. A night with her might be worth it. But will a night be enough?
Camp Mountain Man is a series of steamy and short standalone romances about curvy city slickers and the hunky mountain men who protect them in the Alaskan wilderness. Read HANK if you like adventure and romance full of heart. No cliffhangers, no cheating!
Wonderful!! This was a nice quick, short read. I absolutely love it.
Hank and Bea have know each other for a while, Hank is Bea's brother's Silas's best friend. Silas and Hank have known each other for a while, they were in the military together. Hank would come to Silas and Bea's home when they where on leave. Hank grew up in foster care and never had a home to call his own. Now he owns a plot of land at the resort but doesn't have any desire to build a cabin yet. When Bea comes to visit Silas after he got hurt, she is thinking about a career change, she's tired of her job. When she can't sleep she heads down to the kitchen to grab a glass of milk, she runs into Hank. He asks her what she's doing up, he tells her he's starting breakfast. When they almost kiss, Noah walks in on them and he knows he can't do that to his best friend. When Violet suggest that Bea look at Alaska from the air she know Hank won't take her up. So they get Noah to request Hank take Bea, everywhere she looks is beautiful. When Hank has to make an emergency landing because of fog, he tells her he needs to dump the fuel. She realizes they won't be able to take off again. After they land Bea launches herself into Hank and starts to kiss him. Their kiss becomes more primal as their hands grind and grope on another. Soon they are striping one another of their clothes, to pleasure one another. Then they are making love, and Hank is rubbing Bea's back, soothing her. Hank tells her they need to get going to make some distance before night. As they walk Hank ask Bea about her latest project. She tells him what she working on, it's the most she's heard him talk. Hank tells Bea they should stop for the night and make camp, and she know she's falling for him. Hank makes them breakfast, things that he was able to scavenge together. Bea tells him he should have his own cooking show, but he tells her it's basic stuff. They clean up, pack their things together and head out. Hank knows it's going to take them all day to reach the lodge, he's about to suggest a break when he hears voices. Soon they discover, Noah, Silas and their girls all yelling their names. When they get back to the lodge Bea tells Hank she needs to talk to him. Silas thanks Hank for looking after his sister. Bea asks Hank what happens next, he tells her she's going back to LA, and he's going to start working on dinner. She tells him his problem is he doesn't know how to be happy, he tells her she's probably right. Hank tells her he knows what's right and what's wrong, she asks him if she's wrong. Hank tells Bea he needs to get dinner started and walks away from her. Bea heads to have a girls night with Jules and Violet, after she tells them what happened between her and Hank. They tell her they don't think Hank was telling her the truth, they've seen the way he looks at her everyone can see it, even her brother, Silas. Jules lets Bea know that Hank is probably afraid Silas is going to murder him for even looking at his sister. Violet lets Bea know that Silas is okay with it. Bea tells them she wants out of Hollywood, she tired of all the stress that comes from her job. Jules and Violet tell Bea about the Camp Mountain Man they want to start and bring to the lodge. They tell her all their idea they have, but they can't work on it because they are both working on working on a sexy athletic clothing line for curvy woman. Bea tells them she has a friend back in LA who would be perfect for the job, and she is always looking for a challenge. Silas tells Hank he's chops enough wood to last them through the winter months. Hank tells him he didn't mean for it to happen, Silas asks him if his sister tricked him or something. Hank tells him no, but he's sorry. Silas asks him for what, Hank tells him he know what for. Silas tells him he doesn't know, but he's enjoying watching him squirm. Hank tells Silas he cares for Bea, he always has, and he doesn't want to hurt her. Silas asks him then why did he, Hank tells him it should have never happened. Silas asks him why not, Hank tells him how can he asks that, she's his sister, a guy doesn't take up with his best friends sister. Silas asks him why not, does he care about his sister. Hank tells him he does, Silas asks him if it would make a difference if he told her Bea's wanted out of Hollywood for a while now. Hank asks him really, Silas tells him it was a wake up call when their plane went down, she wants to be around the people she loves. Hank asks him what if she's not happy here, Silas tells him she not going to leave him, not everyone leaves. Hank tells him he's crazy about his sister, Silas tells him he has a question for him, why is he sitting here when his sister is getting ready to get on a plane. Hank takes off running towards the plane, he reaches her as she is reaching for the handle. He asks her to wait, she asks him what happened. He tells her he should have asks her what she wanted. He tells her he can't let her go without telling her he loves her. She tells him she loves him too, he tells her if she gives him a chance he'll show her how much everyday. Bea tells him she hopes he still loves her after she opens the plane door, when she does she introduces him to Wren her from from Hollywood. Wren is going to get Camp Mountain Man started. Bea tells Hank about the social media accounts she started about him. Right now all that matters is that he has her, and it looks like she's planning on staying. More than a year later, they're married, they've been working on Chef mountain mans website and YouTube series. They've had an executive producer call and asks if they'd be interested in filming a pilot. It was the day after Bea found out she was pregnant, so Hank said yes, he wants to finally build that cabin on his plot of land. Hank tells Bea she's really turned his world upside down, and he wouldn't change any of it. That make two, too to be three of them.

HANK is the third book in the Camp Mountain Man series and is another entertaining and enjoyable story. Hank is the cook, pilot and anything else that is needed man at the lodge. He is best friends with Silas as they had served in the military together. Hank grew up in foster care and never had a close family but when he met Hank he was invited into their family. One Christmas he spent the holidays with Hank and his parents and little sister Bea. This is where he first fell in love with the beautiful young woman. But since she is Silas's sister she is off limits to him. At the lodge Hank has found his family, made up of close friends, and this is where he is at home. Bea is Sila's younger sister and she has flown to Alaska after getting the call from Noah that Silas had been in an accident. She lives in LA and works in the film industry behind the camera. Ever since Hank first came home with Silas for a holiday she has had a crush on him. Bea is ready for a change and thinking about getting out of Hollywood but not sure yet where she wants to go. Hank and Bea dance around each other while she is at the lodge. Silas is okay after being buried in a rock slide in Bea is still staying for a while. After talking with Violet and Jules they have Hank take her up in the plane to see everything from the air. However, the fog comes in thick and cuts visibility so Hank cannot get them back to the lodge. Instead he has to dump fuel and land them safely, albeit bumpy. They did do a distress call but in case the lodge did not receive it they start walking toward the lodge to get them closer. They have to spend a night under the stars and end up sharing a sleeping bag and a wild night together. The next morning after Hank makes the breakfast they set off and are picked up a short while later. But this also means reality comes crashing back and Hank knows that he cannot be with Bea. When they get back to the lodge he gets back to work and that evening instead of talking with Bea and hearing her out he breaks it off with her. That night Jules, Violet and Bea have a ladies night in one of the cabins with a lot of booze, pizza and talking. They also end up starting a few things they had been thinking about and that includes Bea phoning one of her friends to come help the ladies. Camp Mountain Man is officially born, as is a very sexy Chef Mountain Man.
I really loved this book about Silas. It was great to see just how he got his HEA, even if he is being a diva. This is an entertaining story that has adventure, drama, family, friends, romance under the stars, very hot and sexy times and love.
HERO /HEROINE Bea is Silas’, a hero from the previous book, little sister. She works in Hollywood, behind the camera. I'm guessing she is a producer of some sort.
Hank enlisted in the army and met his now best friend Silas, and went home on leave with him to his house for Christmas. Where he met Bea and never forgot about her. Hank grew up in the foster system
REPRESENTATION plus size female main character
OVERALL THOUGHTS This is a short and sweet read. Very fluffy and quick. Not much to the story.
Had some funny, stand out moments.
WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE There was smut, but it was bland as hell and not very detailed.
FAVORITE QUOTES:
SAFETY
AGE: They’re middle aged
SEXUAL HISTORY: No one is a virgin but they’re safe and clean.
CONDOMS: No, she’s on the pill.
TUMMY BUTTERFLIES: 2/5 they have sex but it’s bland
Bea has been less than crashing after Hank since high school. Hank has basically been in love with Bea since he came back for a Christmas break with Silas on a military break. Hank knows that beer is Silas‘s sister. He thinks that he’s going to be basically polarized if he even has intentions or thoughts of being with her. Bea notices that he’s been avoiding her since she came in the town. She came into town because Silas was hurt. But when she found out that he was already basically being taken care of by Violet, his new girlfriend, everything was OK. So it feels right being with Bea but he also feels that it’s wrong to be with his best friend sister. The problem is who is going to convince him that it’s right on both sides of the fence? There adventure begins as soon as he gets her a warm glass of milk. No cliffhangers

This third book in the sexy/hot camp mountain man series didn't disappoint. Hank's story with Bea was bittersweet. Hank doesn't think he is worthy of Bea. Bea is special in his eyes and off limits...she's his best friend's Silas little sister. Bea doesn't care about that...she just wants Hank...he has been her long time crush for over 10 years. When one faithful trip leads to intimacy the two bond strengthens but when they get back to reality the two have different ideas on how their relationship should turn out. Will there be a happy ending for the two? I think so...nothing can stop fate and true love.

This is book three in the Camp Mountain Man series. What a great series where a group of friends, ex military men find a plot of land in Alaska and make a business out of a dream. Hank is one of the crew and he can do a.bunch of everything but his focus is the pilot and the cook. When Silas has an accident and his sister, Bea comes to check on him, sparks fly between these two. Both Hank and Bea do not share themselves freely and one miscommunication could cost them their HEA. This is a fast paced, exciting story sure to keep you turning the pages to see if a HEA is in the cards. Enjoy!

Unlike the other books in this series, this is not an instant-love story.. Hank and Bea have actually both secretly wanted the other one for years. The chemistry is there - it's just a matter of whether or not they will act on it. Hank is a bit of a gentle giant and wants what he thinks is best for Bea even if it means sacrificing being with her. With a little help from their friends, all will be well. This is a fun, quick and a little bit steamy read that left me with a smile. It's amazing what a good woman can make a man do.
Bea comes to the camp when her brother is injured. He's going to be okay, so she's just staying a few days. She's been crushing on Hank since forever. He's a pilot, and the camp cook. And he knows that Bea is off limits - Silas is her brother. What happens between them when they have to make a crash landing when fog rolls in unexpectedly? This book is quick to read, and it's steaming hot. Bea and Hank have a great connection, if only they can get past worrying about what Silas will think.

Hank by Kate Tilney was an awesome story. If you enjoy best friend/little sister romance you will love Hank and Bea's story. Be a has had a crush on her brother's best friend since they first met when was a teenager. When her brother is injured on a hiking trip, Bea rushes off to Alaska to be with him. After she knows her brother is ok, she can now make her move on Hank. Hank is happy with his life as a cook/slash pilot at the same lodge as Silas. But he has wanted Be a for a long time. Now that she is here will he finally admit his true feelings?
This is a great story! I couldn't put it down. I enjoyed every second of it.
Bea came to Alaska when her brother got hurt. She stays for a while and reconnects with Hank. He is her brother's friend and works with him. She has always had a crush on him. Hank has always liked Bea but there are some things that a guy doesn't do and that is date sisters of friends. When they go out on a tour and everything doesn't go as planned. While spending time together, will he realize that they are meant to be?

This a sweet and sexy story! Hank has long been in love with his best friend's little sister. Now Bea's at their resort for a week, and how is he supposed to keep his hands off her?! Never did he dream that she felt the same way. Bea is an independent, loving, and loyal woman. She's willing to fight to have a relationship with her brother's best friend, but is he? Fast and fun, this alpha and his girl are perfect for a reality break!

This story takes place just after Silas and boy do Jules and Violet have plans! I liked that Hank and Bea had a history and that it was the men who provided clarity and insight for Hank. I liked the connection these two had and I really liked the snap shot of their future that the epilogue showed. I snuck this little read in before going to bed :)

Bea goes up to Alaska to make sure her brother Silas is OK. Hank is pilot/Cook, and all around handyman with the other guys that own a resort. Bea has always loved Hank and if Hank is true to himself he loves her also. They finally get their chance. Super sweet, sexy mountain man. Love the characters and their interaction with each other. Great story. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Another Mountain Man bites the dust. The author has brought back our favorite people and introduced us to some new ones. Hank has loved Bea ever since he spent the holidays, years ago, with her family. However, he knows better than to get involved with the sister of his best friend.

I am loving where this Camp Mountain Man idea is going and Bea was the perfect person to take it up a notch. Hank had no chance of resisting. The story is short but sweet and sexy and I love that there’s no dragged outside separation or drama.

Love these Mountain Men, each one has been a treat. Fun read with great characters, like the storyline of best friends little sister is always off limits, until she isn’t. I enjoyed the inner struggle of honor the bro code, cute outcome. As always Ms. Tilney captures the romance and humor in these novellas.

"After spending the past week trying to keep his hands off of his best friend’s sister, the last thing Hank needs is to spend a night with her alone in the mountains." This was absolutely wonderful. Love the mountain man. The characters are great as usual. Love a man that can cook.

Hank and Bea have known each other many years through his best friend who is also her brother. When she comes to Alaska out of concern for her brother she falls in love with the mountain they have made their home. Her dreams could come true if Hank would open his mind and heart to let her in.
