Cassie Alan is barely holding on after escaping an abusive relationship. With her money gone and hope running thin, sheās wishing for a miracle when a sudden storm leaves her stranded on the side of the road. Then a stranger in an old truck stopsāarmed with warmth, kindness, and a list of people who can vouch that heās not a serial killer. Desperate, Cassie takes the ride⦠and nothing is the same after.
New business owner Mason Hayes lives by one rule: never mix business with pleasure. That rule shatters the moment he hires the quiet, rain-soaked woman he rescued and finds himself drawn to her strength and vulnerability. Determined to earn her trust, Mason gives Cassie full control over the pace of their relationshipāeven as his feelings grow harder to ignore.
As Cassie slowly opens up about her painful past, Mason sees far more than scars. He sees a survivor worth fighting for. But when the danger she fled threatens to destroy their fragile happiness, Cassie must find the strength Mason has believed in all along or risk losing the future theyāre building together.
Moments with Mason is a steamy boss romance set in a small town, filled with heart, healing, and a fiercely protective hero, and is part of the beloved Red Maple Falls romance series.
