Loved by the Mountain Man: An ex-military mountain man romance (Wild Heart Mountain: Military Heroes Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 1,191 ratings

A forced proximity, age gap romance between a damaged ex-military hero and the curvy girl who hooks his heart.

She’s too young, too innocent and too damn happy…

But I can’t get the quirky, curvy Hailey out of my head. When she’s forced to spend a night in my cabin, she’ll find out just how damaged I am.
I faced the enemy in Iraq, but it’s nothing compared to the raw vulnerability I feel when Hailey holds my heart in her hands. Can she see past the scars, the limp, and the age gap, or was it pity that brought her to my bed?

Loved by the Mountain Man is a forced proximity, ex-military, age gap, instalove romance featuring a scarred military mountain man and the curvy, innocent heroine who may be the healing balm this damaged hero needs.

Authors note: Loved by the Mountain Man is a short instalove story that can be read in about an hour. If you love a quickie, then dive on in!

Kobe is my favorite type of mountain man--big, scarred, and sugary sweet to his woman! I adore all of Sadie King's books. They're always filled with heat, heart, and hunky men. Loved by the Mountain Man is especially swoon-worthy! - Mia Brody - Instalove Romance Author

This baby is quick hot down and dirty! Hailey and Kobe will set your kindle on fire. Shawnaj13 - Bookbub

I loved the scarred, broken mountain man trope, and Kobe was everything!" - Brandi-Lynn Weiser - Goodreads

    I read this thru KU and when I got to 75% I went back to Amazon and bought it. All I can say is WOAH👅🌶🔥😜 I haven’t read this author in awhile and forgot how some of her books can be. I will admit in the beginning I was wondering if I was going to like it enough to even finish let alone to buy it but boy was I wrong. This is a good book for when you want something sweet, quick and kindle melting, lol. I would say that with the smexy scenes it is NSFW, especially the scene where she loses her VCard, you are warned😈 Heck the smexy scene before she loses her virginity is just as Kindle melting. This book has more smexy scenes than most of the author’s other books.
    I can’t wait to read the rest of the series. I want to read about all the guys in their group and I see that the widow bar owner is getting her story at the end. I highly recommend this book if you like some kindle melting, scorching scenes mixed in with your love story. There is not a lot of drama though towards the end I wanted to shake some sense into the FMC but Kobe saved them.

    An ex-military man who comes home broken after the Iraq War. He sees a beautiful young woman and feels like life is about to change. Will it?

    This story has a really good plot line but it intense sexual content bothers you, you may not want to read this story. Hailey left her home town to look for adventure, but she just might find more than she was looking for. Kabo is back home after a difficult time serving in Iraq along with his brother in arms. His first meeting of Hailey gave him more of a little peek as she just came out of the shower and only had a towel on. He knew though that he had to get to know her but will his scars get in the way of his happy every after or will it be something else.

    Reviewed in Australia on November 29, 2024
    Sadie is an excellent short-form writer. I am impressed by how, in a short story, she can develop strong characters and develop an authentic relationship between them. Her heroes are swoon-worthy and very alluring. She gets you in the scene quickly and still manages to develop a setting to help your imagination run wild.
