A widowed single mother lost and alone. A young man intent on defending his family’s legacy. An attraction neither of them saw coming on the mountain…
This mountain has always been home.A safe haven from a world that can be so cruel.But it has its own dangers.I just never expected one of them to be Camille Bower.The beautiful widow is desperate.With a young child and another on the way, she’s in no position to survive the coming winter on her homestead.Unless I help her.But I need something from her in return…In order to protect the James family legacy.It’s a simple bargain.My help for hers.At least, it should have been.I didn’t intend to fall for her.Or to care so deeply for the little boy who has her eyes.People always say the road to Hell is paved in good intentions.Mine have brought those flames to the mountain.And we all may burn for it.
Grab this steamy reverse age-gap stand-alone about a reclusive young billionaire, an older, widowed single mother, an agreement meant to be temporary, and what happens when sparks fly on the mountain and ignite an inferno they can’t escape.
Billionaire Lumberjack’s Bargain is the fifth and final interconnected standalone in Gwyn McNamee’s Lumberjacks in Love series. Gwyn McNamee brought on the waterworks with this story about a widowed single mother, Camille, trying to keep her homestead afloat after losing her husband and a reclusive young billionaire, Dalton, who strikes up a bargain to help her temporarily with the homestead. The second Dalton starts helping around her homestead, though, he can’t help but start to have feelings for the beautiful Camille.
Camille was such a remarkable and strong heroine with everything she endured, and Dalton was a lovable hero who acted like a protector not only for Camille and her son, Davey, but also for his grandfather, whom he worried about due to his health issues, and the threat of someone trying to take their mountain away. I also appreciated Dalton’s grandfather; although he could be tough and stubborn at times, he had a big soft heart for Camille for her troubles and her adorable son, Davey.
I really enjoyed this small-town lumberjack romance between Dalton and Camille. It’s one of my favorites in the series, thanks to the lovable characters and the emotional, beautiful storyline that Gwyn McNamee wrote for them. It’s definitely one book I’ll never forget and I give it five stars and wish I could give it more.
Single/Dual POV: Dual POV.

My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
