She'd rather rescue herself than ask anyone for help..too bad the universe had other plans. Claire Evans has spent years proving she can handle anything life throws at her. So when a reckless attempt to impress her boss leaves her stranded at the bottom of a ravine, calling 911 feels like a huge failure. Then Spencer White shows up. And suddenly being stuck in a ravine isn't the most embarrassing part of her week.
Spencer is everything Claire doesn't want in her life-her best friend's annoyingly capable, infuriatingly handsome big brother. who's far too smug about rescuing her. And somehow keeps popping up in her life. Which might not be the worst thing. Because Spencer has a softer side. When he's not lecturing her about wilderness safety-or her questionable decision-making-he's quietly making sure she has a hot bath waiting after a miserable day, cooking dinner over a campfire, and somehow always showing up when life gets complicated.
But when Spencer starts voicing strong opinions about the development project Claire's career now depends on-the same one that landed her in the ravine-the wrong kind of sparks fly. And to prove she's every bit as capable as he is in the great outdoors, she finds herself agreeing to an orienteering competition. There's just one problem. She doesn't even know how to read a map. And she may have underestimated how much she hates hiking.
But the more time she spends trying to prove she doesn't need Spencer, the harder it becomes to ignore the man behind the smug grin. But falling for Spencer could cost Claire the promotion she's worked so hard to earn..and trusting that she can lean on someone without losing herself might be the hardest challenge of all. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Rescuing Claire is a closed-door opposites-attract romance with an irresistible case of irritated-to-lovers chemistry, a waterfall worth hiking for, and a rescued heart.
It can be read as a standalone but is best enjoyed within the West Coast Romance series.
