Rocky Mountain Heat — Giulia Skye

It's now or never!  Krista Gervais has just one week to make Ryan see her as more than just a friend but hiding in a bush to spy on him making out with the new fitness instructor isn't how she planned their romantic week away. And neither did she plan to take off on an impromptu hiking trip with Shane McDermit, one of her gym's star athletes, who is so smug with all of his love is for losers talk that of course he thinks getting even with Ryan would be a fun game to play. Just goes to show how much he knows. Shane doesn't do love—and for good reason. But since Krista's heart has just broken right in front of him and she's looking a lot like the mess he was in this time last year, the least he can do is help her out by making the other guy jealous. Well, that's the plan anyway, until one prank taken too far leaves them both breathless… Author's Note: Vacation romance.
