Ten days of forced relaxation was supposed to be his personal hell. He didn't expect the cabin's caretaker to make it feel like heaven. Ethan Park is a ruthless Chicago attorney running on black coffee, billing hours, and spite. When his HR department forces him on a mandatory mountain retreat for his own "wellness," the last thing he wants is to disconnect. He especially doesn't want to deal with Cal Rivera, the annoyingly cheerful, flannel-wearing caretaker who smiles too much and talks to his dog like a person. Cal is used to being told he is "too much." He hides his deep insecurities behind a wide, gap-toothed grin and a desperate need to take care of everyone around him. But when a freak Colorado blizzard traps them together and knocks out the power, Cal's relentless warmth is the only thing keeping the ice-cold lawyer from freezing. Forced into a single cabin—and a single bed—to share body heat, the walls between them start to melt. Ethan expects the familiar sting of conditional affection he survived in the past, but Cal's constant, reverent praise cracks him wide open. For a man who has never been loved simply for existing, Cal's adoration is terrifying, overwhelming, and highly addictive. But when the snow clears and the roads open, Ethan has to choose between the high-powered city life he knows and the home he never realized he was looking for. Cabin Fever Praise is a steamy, standalone M/M contemporary romance featuring a severely overworked grump, a fiercely loving sunshine caretaker, one bed, high heat, heavy praise, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
