Wildling — Lynn Burke

A timid woman desperate for love. A wild, young man born of the wilderness. Off-limits desire spirals them toward sure danger-and conflict that will end in death.​A wildling, Ma always called me, born of nature, feral as a fox.I made a promise to her on her deathbed to look after my heartless Pa, but eight years later, he brings another woman to our homestead in the wilds of Alaska, testing my determination to honor Ma's memory.Saige is timid. Beautiful. Unthreatening and desperate for affection, consuming my mind and drawing me in.I should flee-for both our safety.But I have nothing to my name, and leaving as winter approaches means certain death, no matter my survival skills.Pa crosses a line, and the wildling inside me rises like a bear on its hind legs, instinctively needing to show dominance.This time, I won't fail to protect the one I love, no matter the cost-even if it means breaking my promise and shedding blood.
