The Baker’s Naughty Bride: Timber Creek Brides 4

He doesn’t ask. He takes.
And now she’s his to protect, punish… and possess.

When Emmeline Carter escapes into the woods surrounding Timber Creek, she’s wounded, desperate, and completely alone. She’s running from a past that nearly broke her—and the man who vowed to own her forever.

But Timber Creek doesn’t take kindly to strangers. And Deputy Jesse McAllister? He’s not just the law—he’s the one man strong enough to bring her to her knees.

Jesse isn’t interested in gentle comforts. He offers rules. Structure. Safety. And if Emmeline wants to stay under his roof, she’ll follow them—or bend over for the consequences.

He doesn’t just want to protect her.
He wants her submission.

But when danger comes knocking and Emmeline’s past threatens to burn Timber Creek to the ground, Jesse will do whatever it takes to keep her… even if it means breaking every rule he’s sworn to uphold.
