Owen Briggs had a perfect plan for Dalton Survival Weekend. Unfortunately, the wilderness did not receive the itinerary. As a corporate retreat planner, Owen knows how to manage expectations, shape outcomes, and make every experience feel intentional. What he does not know is how to admit that his outdoor expertise may have been slightly exaggerated. Marcus Hale notices immediately.

When tent setup runs long, fire-starting goes wrong, maps lead people into mud, and ...

What starts as a terrible first impression high above the trees turns into forced proximity, awkward hand-holding, cabin-sharing, public teasing, and one deeply inconvenient realization. Harry may ...

Indiana “Indy” Baker came to Dalton, Maine to lead a winter wellness retreat with trail snacks, sunrise flow, and exactly zero chaos.
