Hunter at Large — Pepper Adams

MOUNTAIN OF LOVE

Tess McIver was desperate. She needed money to save her Big Bear Lodge -- and that was the only reason she agreed to teach Denver's most popular television host the fine art of wilderness survival. Jack Hunter was a hunk, all right, but wait until the citified celebrity got his first taste of the great outdoors!

Jack wasn't thrilled at the prospect of depending on this female Paul Bunyan for his survival. But to his surprise, roughing it with the sassy, stubborn and irresistible Tess had definite appeal.

Tess was surefooted on the trails, but she wasn't as bold when it came to love. Maybe now, with Jack, it was time to take that first step... and ask him to be her guide on the path to love.
