Dakota Tokala agreed to a girl's getaway vacation with her three best friends. However, it became a couple's getaway with Dakota as the third wheel. This happened when one of the friends had to drop out because of an accident and another invited her boyfriend to fill the spot. So now Dakota finds herself alone and bored in Leavenworth, Washington. The town itself is a fun Bavarian themed place with a lot of outside activities to keep the tourists busy. Looking for something to fill her time, Dakota is directed into Catamount Outfitters to hire guides for an adventure.The Falke family owns and runs Catamount. Running an outdoor adventures business works well for them because the men of the family are cougar shifters. Alex agrees to be Dakota's guide with some silent help from his brother Gunnar. Not that Dakota will know Gunnar is going along since he will be in cougar form. The trip is going to be interesting right off as both Gunnar and Alex feel an instant attraction to Dakota. But they run the business with a strict hands, or paws, off the paying customers.Dakota is enchanted by the nature around her and the comfortable feeling she has with Alex. However, she isn't too sure about Falke - the family cougar that is also along for the trip. That is until he saves her a nasty scare from some of the wildlife. Alex and Gunnar are impressed by Dakota's fun loving nature, and her desire to see it all. No one was expecting the sexual sparks that exploded after they all arrived at the cabin, or the avalanche that forced Alex and Gunnar to tell Dakota their secret. Dakota suddenly faces the fact that she desires both brothers, as well as what she means to them. When rescue arrives and the adventure is over, can Dakota accept all she has learned, and both Alex and Gunnar?What began as an adventure to escape her third wheel status became a journey to last a lifetime. Dakota, Alex, and Gunnar have that journey in Falke's Peak. I totally felt for Dakota when her girls' vacation turned into a friend's lover retreat, and I agreed with her notion to have her own little adventure. Listening to Alex and Gunnar talk during the trip had me smiling several times. When passion came into the picture, I thought that Alex and Gunnar might have destroyed what could have been - especially after they were rescued from the cabin. I really loved how all three parties were willing to make major changes in order to be with the others. Falke's Peak brings adventure and eroticism to new heights as two brothers find and win over the woman of their dreams. I really hope that I get a chance to see the other Falke siblings find their heart mates, too.JoReviewed for Joyfully Reviewed
