December’s Ride with Scar. Mustang Mountain Riders, #12

The mail-order bride he didn't want, the safe place she needed, and a little Christmas Magic. ScarI'm the guy who keeps things in control-until my so-called friends surprise me with a mail-order bride. They think I'm lonely that I need someone. But when the bus rolls up, and Evelyn steps off that bus looking too sweet and too perfect for my world. Yet, when she looks at me, there's a fire in her eyes I can't ignore.
I try to play it cool, keeping things light, but there's no mistaking the pull I feel every time she speaks, every time she looks at me. Still, there's something about her that makes me want to protect her-and I'd burn down my whole world before letting anyone touch her. EvelynComing to Mustang Mountain was supposed to be a fresh start, but meeting Scar turns my whole world upside down. He's intense, mysterious, and exactly what I didn't expect.
After losing everything back home, I came here hoping for a fresh start, hoping to escape my past. He's rough around the edges but with a gentleness I didn't expect. Every moment with him feels like peeling back layers I never thought I'd share with anyone. And when he holds me close, I start to think. I'll do whatever it takes to stay by his side. I've already lost everything once. I won't lose him too.
