And, of course, more of those Abominable, bride-snatching Lo denaii vying for mates.Rosalinda was all geared up for a winter wonderland vacation, her car loaded up with supplies, a cozy cabin set back in the woods, just her, mother nature, and piles of that fluffy white stuff tumbling around her, as far as the eye could see.It didn't get any better than that. Or so she'd thought...Nothing seems to want to work, no phone, no internet, a cabin that needs more than a bit of TLC, and a harsh storm looks to be blowing in. In no time she'll be snowed in, forced to wait out the storm before she can escape. Rosa begins to wonder if things could get any worse.And then they do.The portal has opened, and it's time.

When he comes across the dark haired woman all by her lonesome, struggling in the snow, one whiff of her sweet scent and he knows. No other was to be his. The only thoughts on his mind? Take. Protect. MINE.This is the second installment in the Brides of the Hunt series, and best read after The Bridal Hunt.
