The Fifth Season — Julie Korzenko

Brought to Jackson, Wyoming under cover of darkness and with a past never to be revealed, Resort manager, Emma O'Malley needs only one thing from Stone Connor: River Run.

The luxury five-star resort has been willed to Stone with the condition that he must spend four seasons within the property or else it reverts to his father...a man he passionately hates, a surrogate parent Emma dearly loves.

Struggling to emotionally recover from a disastrous covert operation, Stone is less than thrilled about River Run. The puzzle that is Emma O'Malley, however, adds a beacon of light to his darkness. As the nightmares of Emma's childhood surface to reality, survival forces Emma to join forces with Stone. Desire and danger dance a fine line between love and war.
