Shephard: A Rough Romance (Mountain Men of Danger Falls Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 497 ratings

First he made me his for a night. Then he made me his forever.

On a dark, stormy night, a stranger stripped me bare in my own hotel room, spanked my ass red, and then pinned me to the bed and turned my most shameful fantasies into raw, filthy reality.

No names. No commitments.

Then I returned to my life, thinking I'd seen the last of the gorgeous Marine turned mountain man who rutted me like a beast while I screamed loud enough for the whole building to hear.

But fate had other plans.

With a killer leaving a trail of death in Danger Falls, my job as a park ranger required me to hire a tracker, and the man turned out to be the same chiseled god who made me his once already.

And this time he's not letting me go after just one night.

Publisher's Note: Shephard is the first book in the Mountain Men of Danger Falls series but can be read as a standalone. It includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.

Full of action
5 out of 5 stars
Full of action
The story has several storylines: the unexplained murders, the brothers taking over the operation of the resort and the intense attraction between Denise and Shepherd. The story is full of action with many twists and turns that made this one of those stories you wanted to finish reading to see how things turned out. I loved this story and would highly recommend it as a great read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and are voluntarily leaving a review.

    Shepard is the first installment in Piper Stone’s Men of Danger Falls series. In it she chronicles the romantic journey of Denise Paker, a former police detective and now park ranger, and Shephard Fox, an ex-marine and black ops mercenary. Destiny brings them together when Shephard returns to Danger Falls to join his brothers in running the family’s resort. When they meet there is an instant and intense attraction which both parties fight due to their emotional wounds and scars and their professional experiences. When a threat from Shephard’s past zeroes in on him and Denise, how will they react? Can Denise solve the mystery behind the horrendous recent murders? How will this threat impact their romantic feelings? Will Shepard vanquish his emotional demons and the real-life villain pursing them? To find out what happens you must read this book.
    Once again, Ms. Stone pens another captivating romantic suspense. She masterfully uses literary devices like dialog, dual POV, and descriptive language to move her plot line along at a well paced speed. The characters are likeable. The dual POV allows readers to get a better understanding of the characters. The support of the secondary characters—the DDs and the Lgs—create a strong and close family atmosphere. I enjoy how Ms. Stone blends in a bit of suspense into this tale to captivates her reader’s attention. I also enjoy that each installment in this series can be read either independently or sequentially in this series.

    I tend to think of Piper Stone as a writer of pornos. Most of the stuff of hers that I’ve read has basically been porn. Fun reads- but still porn. And I now totally apologize for that attitude!!! With this book, she impressed me SOOO MUCH!!! There is a real story, a real mystery, in this book- and it’s REALLY REALLY GOOD!!!!
    GO PIPER!!!! I seriously CANNOT WAIT to read the next 2 books in this series!!! There’s characters you can invest in, a mystery that keeps you hooked and isn’t hokey, and a good, adult romance tying them all together with some good sex thrown in. Not as kinky as past writing but everything else makes up for that. I’m SERIOUSLY IMPRESSED!!!!

    Who's dumping tortured bodies Danger Falls? Denise, a tough as nails park ranger wants to find out. She runs into a hot stranger in a bar and ends up getting to know him very well. Shephard isn't looking for a woman to rock his world, but he finds one. Both characters have pasts that haunt them. They keep everyone at more than arms length, but can't resist each other. This Mountain Men series is off to a steamy start and I'm here for it!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Shepherd and Denise
    Reviewed in India on December 3, 2024
    The book grabs you hard with the way we start off, two strangers meet at a motel and spark instant hot chemistry that turns into 𝗋𝗈𝗎𝗀𝗁 passionate night of crackling time and then they walk off, with no names and anything identifying each other.

    Denise is such a 𝖻𝖺𝖽𝖺𝗌𝗌 girl that and being a park ranger, she doesn't even hesitate going for her routine search in the woods and brave enough to wander straight into danger, to save lives.

    Then there's also the fact that, there have been mysterious and 𝖻𝗋𝗎𝗍𝖺𝗅 deletions of men happening that have left the cops boggled as to who might be responsible for such inhumanity.

    But I felt the book was stretched out a bit and I felt not as engrossed in the book as I wanted to be.
    Even though, the initial part pulled me in, the book didn't sustain my attention for the long haul.

    Well...that was different...still a super sexy read from Piper Stone. I really liked the fact that our hero and heroine were so likely matched. Can't wait for the next brother. An intriguing must read.
