He pulled her out of the snow. He fed her elk tenderloin by firelight. He called her good girl in a voice that rearranged her spine. And when the blizzard closed the road, he held out a key and asked—politely—if she’d like to stay.

Twenty-four-year-old book-cover designer Juniper “June” Hayes drove up to the Colorado mountains with one duffel, one dead phone, and fourteen months of slow damage to undo. She booked a solo week in a no-frills rental cabin. She did not book the blizzard. She did not book the broken furnace. And she absolutely did not book Callum “Cal” Marchetti—forty-seven, silver-bearded, ex–Coast Guard rescue swimmer, former Raja Ampat dive instructor, owner of Silver Pines Backcountry, and the most catastrophically handsome man ever to open a bakery door for her at 8 a.m.

When the small town of Elk Hollow—its bakery, its bar, its ski patrol, its sheriff—quietly decides that June will be staying the week at Cal’s, she finds herself in a modern log house with radiant floors, a copper soaking tub on the deck, and a loft bed with a first-edition Cormac McCarthy on the nightstand. She finds herself, for the first time in a year, warm. She finds herself, for the first time in her life, called by her full name in a voice she did not know she had been waiting for.

And over a week of firelight, hot springs, cross-country ski tracks, whiteout snow, wine-by-the-stove, and a patient, attentive, unhurried man who means every good girl he says—she finds herself.

Cozy Me Daddy is a lush, slow-burn, praise-kink, cozy-cabin age-gap romance for readers who want their heroes competent, tender, and obsessed, their heroines seen, safe, and un-silenced, and their small towns full of women who will feed you a morning bun and block your ex’s number for you.

Expect:

• A modern log cabin with a wood stove and a copper tub in the snow
• A likeable heroine, a Coast Guard silver-fox hero, a twenty-three-year age gap
• Extended, explicit, unhurried sex scenes—warm-dominant, praise-heavy, never cruel
• Daddy-kink on the page, negotiated aloud, with clear consent throughout
• A guaranteed HEA

Perfect for readers of Lauren Asher, Elsie Silver, Elena Armas, Hannah Grace, and anyone who wishes Twisted Love had featured an older, calmer hero who knew how to cook an elk tenderloin.
