When Ranger Cal Bennett transfers to Whispering Pines, he expects quiet trails and solitude not Lily Marsh, the camp director whose energy seems to brighten every corner of the forest. Lily runs Camp Evergreen with determination and heart, but she’s never met a ranger who carries so much silence in his eyes.

Assigned to clear and restore the camp’s overgrown paths, Cal and Lily find themselves working side by side. Long hikes, late talks, and the search for a missing camper begin to stir memories Cal has tried to bury and feelings neither of them planned to face.

As Cal struggles with a past that shadows every step and Lily makes space for someone who asks for little but clearly needs more, their connection deepens. The question remains: can a path meant for closure also open toward something lasting?

Ranger’s Rest is a tender romance shaped by wilderness, memory, and the quiet strength of trust.

Will they risk the first step toward love, or turn back before the trail begins?
