Beverly Brandt: True North [2002] paperback

Rustic Colorado is hardly Claire Brown's idea of a primovacation spot, but the week-long getaway at a romantic mountain lodge promises to heal a rift with her increasingly detached fiance. Armed with her trusty laptop and constantly ringing cell phone, Claire can't help sensing, though, that her fiance might not be as committed to their relationship as she is. The dead giveaway: he's brought another woman along on their romantic holiday...As proprietor of Hunter's Lodge, John McBride is duty-bound to find suitable accommodations under his sold-out roof for the cell-phone addicted just-jilted guest. As a red-blooded man whose pet peeve is a workaholic woman, he's determined to steer clear of the suddenly single dynamo who just checked in for the next nine days. But the annoying, yet alluring, Claire has a way of popping up when he least expects it - and as John soon discovers, so does true love...
