Exposed Hearts

BOOK FOUR IN THE HEALING HEARTS LESBIAN ROMANCE SERIES.

A slow burn lesbian romance featuring mountain rescue, dangerous attraction, and a connection that refuses to stay casual.

Frankie Martinez is three months out of a breakup and completely fine.

She says so.

Bridge Cahill arrives at Frankie's search and rescue training by pulling herself over the edge of an eighty-foot cliff. No rope. No harness. Her first act is correcting Frankie on the gender of a stray dog.

Her second is walking away without looking back.

By evening, they are both at Rosie's bar.

By midnight, somewhere considerably better.

Because some sparks do not wait.

Bridge is in Elk Ridge for the season, training for a free solo climb that would make most people rethink their life choices. She travels light, keeps her secrets close, and reads people the way she reads rock, with a patience that feels like a warning.

Frankie teaches others how to approach wild things slowly, carefully, without startling them.

She should have taken her own advice.

What begins as chemistry quickly turns into something harder to ignore. Between mountain rescues, training sessions, and moments that blur the line between control and surrender, both women are forced to confront what they want and what they are willing to risk.

Because some connections are not meant to stay temporary.

Set against the rugged backdrop of the Colorado mountains, Exposed Hearts is a character-driven lesbian romance that blends slow burn tension with high heat, delivering a story that is as emotionally charged as it is unapologetically intense.
