Welcome to the bestselling Diamond Creek, Alaska Novels – a steamy contemporary romance series! Love Untamed is a sexy, charming and charged love story set against the wilderness and beauty of small-town Alaska. What happens when two people who are committed to staying single can’t keep their hands off of each other?
Susie Hammond is a romantic at heart and a meddling matchmaker to her friends. … her friends. She had a near tragedy that shattered her trust in men a few years ago. While she wants love for everyone, guarding her own heart is more important than finding love for herself. Susie is beautiful, strong, independent, brash, funny…and most definitely not interested in Jared Winters.
Jared occupies the fantasies of many women in Diamond Creek and afar. He’s sexy, strong, enigmatic, and unattainable. His life is neat and tidy, organized down to the minute. Being a bachelor is simpler than dealing with the messy complications of a relationship. Susie is a hurricane force and a source of mischief and mayhem…most definitely not a temptation for Jared. Jared is just a tad too cool and collected for Susie. They drive each other crazy—in more ways than one.
For years, the spark between them has been on slow burn. When it finally ignites, passion and emotions explode. One scorching hot kiss leads to another and another and then some. As long as they’re not talking, their relationship is phenomenal. Events force them to face themselves and each other. Can Susie find a way to trust again? Can Jared let go enough to show her he’s worth trusting?
*All novels in this series are full-length standalone novels with an HEA.

Maybe this is just what her and Jared need! Check out this story today!
Wonderful story with great characters! Love these people, love this series!
Susie and Jared’s book is steamy and full of angst. I have been waiting for these two to finally get it together but they really made the journey difficult as neither one wanted to admit how they were feeling even when they can’t keep their hands off each other. Both of them have refused to be in a relationship and letting their guards down was difficult. They do get their HEA.
I enjoyed the story. Too much explicit sex.
Great story from one of my favorite authors.
I expected more out of Susie and Jared’s story, I’m not sure what more, I go at the explosive sex and that was expected, but I did not expect the ongoing endless hemming and hawing about their relationship with the two characters. I finished the book but admit I wanted to quit about halfway through.
Diamond Creek, Alaska series makes me want to go there.
Good story set in Alaska. Descriptions of the scenery make me want to pack my bags!
I have bought majority of this authors books. I love her.
The main character Susie is incredibly annoying. She’s illogical, petulant, and prone to throwing tantrums . It’s hard to believe someone like her could have the friends she has let alone a love interest. As I read, I kept willing Jared to call her out on her immature behavior and dump her—not what you normally expect in a romance novel.
Love the stories of the rugged Winter brothers in this Diamond Creek series by J.H. Croix! Spectacular setting, heartwarming characters!
I really enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it
Wonderful tale of love in the wilderness.
I have followed this whole series and enjoyed every one of the books. The characters are delightful and real, the Alaskan setting is wonderful, it makes you want to be there. I, personally, would like more books in this series!!
I really enjoy this series
It was a very romantic book.
Love this series. With Alaska as the setting, the story is beautiful.. I love reading about these characters. The author does a wonderful job of keeping the focal characters in the forefront while bringing in the previous characters and intertwining them all. Looking forward to the next book!
Please proofread. Good story.
Love this series. Couldn’t wait to read about these two. Great read!
I felt like the author only wrote half a book. A lot of it was in the previous book in this series.
