A world-renowned mountain climber and nature photographer, Ty Braden has never believed in second dates, let alone breathless, life-altering love, until a trip to Saint-Luc introduces him to Aiyla Bell. A ski instructor and fellow photographer, Aiyla is funny, strong, and just as devoted to the outdoors as he is, and over five magical days and four soulful nights the two fall hard for each other. When Ty asks her to join him on his next assignment, though, his reputation for keeping women at his beck and call makes Aiyla hesitate to abandon the life she has built, and they part. Months later, fate intervenes: a chance meeting throws them together for a five-day wilderness event in the Colorado Mountains, where their passionate connection proves stronger than ever. This time Ty is determined not to lose her. But when tragedy strikes and turns both their worlds upside down, the love they have only just reclaimed faces its truest test. Told across mountain ranges and shared lenses, their romance follows two adventurers who found something rare on the first try and must fight to keep it when everything they planned is thrown into doubt.
