Timber Ridge

A grumpy-sunshine small-town romance

De: Kelly Collins

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A grumpy single-dad fisherman. A sunshine teacher new to Alaska. And a slow burn that melts the coldest state.

Timber Moore trades the Arizona heat for a summer teaching job in Port Promise, Alaska. She tells everyone she’s chasing adventure, but the truth rides in her coat pocket: a postcard from a man who might be the father she’s never met. All she needs is a few quiet months to dig up answers. She doesn’t need Kane Hollister—gruff, storm-eyed, and convinced she won’t last the season—telling her she doesn’t belong.

Kane has one rule: don’t get attached to anyone who isn’t staying. He’s raising his five-year-old daughter alone after her mother walked out, and he’s not about to let another woman close enough to wreck what he’s rebuilt. But Timber doesn’t play by his rules. She faces down wildlife, delivers babies in snowstorms, and makes Hailey laugh in ways he hasn’t heard in years. He doesn’t push her away. She doesn’t leave. And that’s the part that scares him most.

She’s searching for a family she’s never known. He’s protecting the one he already has. In a town this small, their collision is inevitable—and so is the fallout when her secrets and his fears land on the same doorstep.

Sweet love story

Timber Moore arrives in Port Promise, Alaska as the town’s summer teacher, but she’s also chasing answers tied to her past. Watching this city girl adjust to small town life and fall for single dad Kane Hollister was truly heartwarming. I absolutely loved Timber, Kane, and his daughter Hailey, along with the charming townsfolk. The author’s beautiful descriptions made this small Alaskan town feel alive and cozy. A sweet, emotional love story that proves home can find you when you least expect it.
