Tawny Reed chose the FBI over a criminal record and spent years trying to outrun the mistake that forced her into that choice. She thought she had finally escaped, but the man following her says otherwise.
Colt stopped to help someone stranded on the road. He didn’t expect to get pulled into her world, her danger, or the intense connection between two people who only have each other in a remote mountain cabin with nowhere left to run.
The chemistry between them is immediate and inconvenient. The threats closing in are neither.

Alexa Padgett writes contemporary romances filled with heart, heat, and emotional depth that helps readers breathe easier. Her stories offer women a soft place to land, a world where they feel seen, valued, and loved by partners who show up. She writes hockey heroes, rockstars with wounded hearts, and the women strong enough to love them. When she isn’t writing, Alexa can be found at home near Santa Fe, NM, drinking too much coffee, dreaming up new characters, and believing in the power of love stories to make us feel whole again.
