A full-length, standalone romance with a guaranteed HEA from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix! If you like romance with alpha men and strong women, you’ll love this series! What happens when different worlds collide and love gets caught in the middle?Garrett Hamilton is the quintessential ladies man, a handsome, wealthy corporate lawyer whose work keeps him far too busy to think about … too busy to think about romance. Yet, he’s lost his drive to win cases and finds himself hopping on a plane to visit his brother at Last Frontier Lodge in Alaska. Delia Peters is a single mother who learned the hard way that love doesn’t come easy. She figures life is good enough if she can pay the bills. Love is the stuff of dreams, not real life.
Garrett has spent so many years driven almost entirely by his work that he’s at loose ends. He’s hoping an unplanned escape will refresh and renew him. He didn’t count on Delia nearly bringing him to his knees with her unassuming beauty. One kiss and he’s lost. A man whose career was built on his ability to spin any situation to his advantage finds himself stumbling when faced with a woman whose mere presence rattles his control.
Delia is finally finding some stability with a new job as the chef at the local ski lodge. She’s so accustomed to the busy pace of single motherhood that the thought of romance hasn’t crossed her mind in years. She’s entirely unprepared for the scorching attraction between her and Garrett. One kiss sends her reeling…and wanting more than she ever imagined.
Delia and Garrett can’t deny the depth of desire that simmers between them. Falling in love wasn’t in the plans for either of them. Garrett is everything Delia dreamed of and more. Delia touches places in Garrett’s heart that he hadn’t known existed. Can Delia learn to trust in love? Can Garrett get out of his own way long enough to show Delia how much she matters?
*All novels in this series are full-length standalone novels with an HEA.

good book. Family involved with the story.
Loved the characters and how their insecurities made them that much more believable. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
This is the first book I read of J.H. Croix’s even though it’s the second book in the series.
I read Garrett and Delia’s story and was instantly hooked on the series. I have now read Gage’s and Becca’s story (siblings of Garrett).
Her Frontier Lodge series is about a family that owns a lodge up in Alaska. Each book is about a sibling finding their true love. Each book is a Happy Ever After, but after one book you want to read the next to find out what happens with the rest of them.
Garrett is a high priced lawyer in Seattle who just walks out of court after a case one day and flies to his family’s lodge in Alaska. He’s not really sure what’s wrong only that he is unhappy with his life.
Delia has lived in Diamond Creek all her life. While she was away at college she got pregnant and came home to raise her child as a single mother. She works at the Lodge as their chef. When Garrett visits the sparks fly between the two of them and Delia would like more but is guarded because of her past and her son and Garrett is so unsure of what he wants in life that he keeps stalling.
They eventually find their HEA but it takes some good advice from Garrett’s siblings to achieve it.
I love J.H. Croix the most for her descriptive writing, and I’m not just talking about the romance scenes, which are really hot! Her writing is so descriptive you feel like you are right there with the characters.
LOVED THE LODGE! I LOVE EVERYTHING JH CROIX WRITES AND THIS DOESNT DISAPPOINT! GREAT STORY AND CHARACTERS. ALL LADIES NEED A SUPPORT SYSTEM LIKE SHE HAS. LOVED THIS BOOK!
For me it got a bit boring half way through – more sex than story!!!!!
I got one of her books free on Bookbub and liked it so well that I bought four or five others. Her characters are strong and likeable.
Very well written and information about living in Alaska
great book
Awesome
enjoyed the book – easy read
fun read
Lots of great description of Alaska. Made me want to explore. Great character development and story.
Romantic and feel good. Can’t wait to read rest of series.
Good book
I don’t know maybe it’s just the author, this is my second book by her and there seems to be at least one of her characters that is just to much of a whiner or self doubted in this one it was the H
Haven’t decided if I need to read beyond book 2 so haven’t bought rest of series
Steamy love story with an underlying message that some people struggle with their emotions, inability to commit to a relationship.
Really enjoyed this plot and especially the hero of the story. He was so willing to put his feelings out there. Lots of honesty and passion. The beginning was a lot more vibrant than the end. I feel like the author was looking for a dramatic finish, that didn’t really fit the hero. But worth the read. Liked it a lot.
Love this book
two much much about body parts, needed to be less talk about sexual content
