Reluctant Lumberjack: A Hero Club Novel Kindle Edition
Twenty years ago, I also loved a man.
And twenty years ago, rather than choose, I abandoned them both.
Now, I’m living a lonely life, luckless in love and unwilling to confront the truth of what I left behind.
When my brother passes, I become responsible for my four-year-old niece. Uprooting her isn't an option which means heading back to the sticks of New Hampshire, to the small town I fled.
Because of Charlotte.
Because of Liam.
My two best friends, the ones I’d been reluctant to pursue but couldn’t deny.
Attempting to avoid facing my past doesn’t work, and I see them both—together. They appear to have moved on while I can’t.
I still want her.
I still want him.
But secrets lay between us, betrayals that threaten to crack the egg shells we walk on.
I’ve got more than my own heart to look out for now, and I’ll protect those I love this time around.
No matter the cost.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2022Charlotte loved her best friends. First came Liam who she befriended and they stared down the bullies as best they could in school. Then came Nolan who caught with Charlotte's eye and Liam's. He also took care of the bullies until he disappeared because he loved both his best friends and didn't want to choose between them. So he left them and his heart. But then tragedy strikes and he comes back home...can he choose now or will be have to?
Great story line, lots of heart and heat...

- Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2025I didn't love this one. I felt like there were 2 different stories going on. I didn't believe that these 3 people were madly in love with each other after 20 years apart and only having been together a minimal amount of time as presumable teenagers. But their "together" scenes were pretty hot, and I loved Trina, so it wasn't a waste of my time. Plus, LOVED the audio narration with Teddy.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2023Oh my stars! I was worried this throuple would never fix their worries and doubts! But once they figured it out? Perfection! (And the spice will steam your screen!)
- Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2021Twenty years ago Nolan left them both, he ran away from the two people he loved more ten anything . He was torn between his two best friends and fled instead of confronting his feelings . Well it is twenty years later and his niece needs him , so back to the town that holds so many memories good and bad for him . To the little girl who will become his world and the two best friends that will bring him back to life.
The characters are wonderfully written and complex . Nolan is a tortured soul , he is torn between the two loves of his life. He is a big burly man who is gruff and possessive . There is a broken soul buried deep inside that just really needs to heal . He is gentle and oh so sweet when he lets his guard down. Liam is a confidant man who knows what he wants and will get it when the time is right . Deep down he is still the vulnerable young man that is still fighting for what he wants. Charlotte is the girl next door living in the same small town . She is not really confidant about anything. She is a curvy girl who has been knocked down all her life . When they are all together they really bring out the best in each other . They truly belong together as a family.
This is a book that you will be hooked by the end of the first chapter . The characters are so relatable and intense . You will like them when you first meet them and fall in love with them by the end of the book. The author can really paint a picture of a tortured soul and the ways that that tortured soul can be saved . This book really tore at my heart strings , I felt like all the characters needs hugs . This is a book where you need to carve out a couple of hours to curl up and read, because once you start you will not put it down until you are finished . This is a great book for your fall reading challenge. So check it out.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2021This is a wonderful addition to this awesome series and is Nolan, Liam, and Charlotte’s journey. These three were best friends, and when Nolan left town without a word, the other two were left heartbroken. Nolan left town as he loved Liam and Charlette, and he was unable to choose between them, now 20-years later fate has destined them all to reconnect. When Nolan’s brother passes away, he is left with custody of his cute little 4-year-old niece Trina, and he returns tp New Hampshire, and coincidentally at the same time Liam and Charlotte are also back in town, Liam is a successful surgeon, and Charlotte is a 1st grade teacher. Confronting their pasts, they all need to accept and work around the dynamics of their complex relationship. This is a well written story which is sweet, entertaining, witty, and with secrets, which all leads to a steamy and all-consuming riveting page turner. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2021When Nolan left all those years ago, he didn't just leave town, he left his heart behind with his two best friends. He couldn't have both of them, or either of them, so he ghosted them. Now he's back to take custody of his sweetheart of a niece, Trina. Will running into Liam and Charlotte and seeing them together break his heart, or will it be the fire that lights him up enough to go claim the two of them?
Charlotte has lived in their small town her whole life. Her heart was broken when Nolan left. Then Liam left. But Liam's back now. At least 1 of her besties came back to her. Too bad he only likes guys, because she's always had a crush on him even knowing he only had eyes for Nolan. But what happens when Liam offers to help her have a baby. The old fashioned way...
Liam came back to this town and isn't about to care about all the bigots here. No, he's here to be with his bestie, Charlotte. She's the only woman he's ever had feelings for. When he finds out she's having problems conceiving, perhaps he can help her out with that, and live out some of his hot fantasies. But what will both of them do when the man who broke both their hearts comes back? The man both have always had feelings for? Will Nolan's arrival break them again? Or will it be the best thing the three of them could never have seen coming?
This MMF is pretty great. I loved all three leads, and found they complemented each other perfectly. The physical connection is strong, but not stronger than the emotional one, which is the only balance I like when reading MMF. The addition of Trina gives the story an added sweetness and lightness it needs, and I found I loved all of them. What a great addition to the CHC!
