Love on the Risky Side
by Mariah
Ankenman
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Falsely
accused of the murder of her best friend, Kayla Jenkins is on the run for her
life. She ends up lost in dark, snowy woods off some backcountry road in the
middle of nowhere. Frightened and colder than she’s ever been in her life, she
almost thinks she’s hallucinating when a warrior on a white steed saves her.
In
all his years as the sheriff of Peak Town, Colorado, Jake Ryder has never come
across a half-frozen woman alone in the woods. She’s terrified…and lying to
him, yet something about her calls to him on a primal level.
Even
with her trust of law enforcement lower than the harsh temperature, Kayla finds
it difficult to keep her secrets hidden from the kind and far too handsome
sheriff. But as her faith in Ryder grows, she not only risks the real murderer
finding her, but losing the one thing she has searched for her whole life and
only just found…love.

EXCERPT TWO:
As
the shape came closer, she realized it wasn’t Bigfoot—because he doesn’t
exist—she reminded herself. It was also not a bear. Her vision finally focused
on a large gray horse. Not only a horse, but a rider, too.
The
clouds in the night sky dissipated, allowing the moonlight to shine down into
the woods. Kayla’s heart skipped a beat as the two towered over her.
The
man sat upon the horse like a warrior of olden days. Long, dark hair fluttered
about his face in the wind—sharp, high cheekbones, a smooth, square jawline,
and thick, dark brows pressed down over a pair of deep, warm brown eyes.
“Hello.”
His
voice rumbled over her like a warm blanket. What she wouldn’t give for a warm
blanket right now.
“Do
you need some help?”
She
hesitated at his question, staring into his eyes. They looked so kind and
trusting, but a man’s eyes had deceived her before. Until two days ago, David’s
eyes had always been normal; sure, the guy had given off the jerkwad vibe at
times, but she never suspected the evil hidden behind those eyes. Was this man
the same? Could she trust those eyes?
Did
she really have a choice?
No.
She had no idea where she was and was literally freezing. Yes, she needed help.
The only question, would this man be her salvation…or her downfall?
