Rugged Blood - by Ashley Bennett (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Riley Hudson needs a fresh start after a painful loss, and what better place to begin again than a little cabin in Skagway, Alaska, with its snowy trails and open skies. What she doesn't expect to find is a burly mountain man who stops her in her tracks with his kindness and his rugged good looks.

Silas Stroud has been in self-imposed isolation to atone for the crimes he committed as a newly turned vampire over a hundred years ago. He was sure he deserved to live alone forever, until he met his new neighbor. This beautiful human woman calls to his soul in a way he's never experienced, and she just might be his mate.

But then Riley uncovers his long-held secret. As she comes to terms with his vampirism--and discovers that it comes with some unexpectedly hot benefits--shadows from his past threaten to steal every drop of happiness Riley and Silas have.
