Secluded Heart. Heart Series, #4

Ashton  A battle-worn soldier, a quiet cabin, and a pop sensation disrupting my solitude.  My refuge in the mountains shattered when she arrived - June, a glamorous intruder with a storm of her own.  The clash of our worlds was as certain as the changing seasons. Yet amid the chaos, her laughter became a melody in my solitary existence. Sparks ignited between us. I fought a losing battle against my gruff exterior, opening up to her in ways I never thought possible. Barriers crumbled as we navigated the rocky terrain of our differences.
I found myself yearning for more than the isolation I once craved. But when her true identity comes to light, the peace we found in the secluded mountains unravels. Secrets surfaced, and misunderstandings threatened to extinguish the flame we kindled.  Decision time as she stands before me. I must decide whether to let the scars of my past dictate our future or if love can overcome the shadows that haunt me.
