Winter Magic (Bitter Creek King's Brats)

From New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author JOAN JOHNSTON, read Mike’s story, continued from Sullivan’s Promise. In the five years since Mike Sullivan’s face was destroyed by a grizzly, he’s become a lone wolf, working on his family’s Montana ranch by day and retreating to a log cabin at night. When he discovers a woman and her four-year-old daughter huddled in a stalled truck during a blizzard, he has no choice except to bring them to his isolated cabin in the woods. Joanna Henderson is grateful when a mysterious stranger—only his blue eyes are visible behind a concealing scarf—offers to help, but going with him may be more perilous than staying where she is. Joanna becomes truly frightened when she finally sees the stranger’s ruined face and realizes that, once again, she’s at the mercy of a dangerous man she doesn’t trust. Between a woman’s need and a man’s loneliness the buds of friendship flower into true love.
