Her Boss's Lumberjack Brother
(2026)(Book 13 in the Lumberjacks of Evergreen Valley series)
A novel by Emily Crescent
I walked into the wrong shed and found the right man.
I’m Naomi Wells, office manager at Evergreen Timber, and my entire life runs on neat rows of timesheets and the illusion that if I keep everything perfectly lined up, nothing unpredictable will touch me.
Then I opened a door I shouldn’t have, and there he was—shoulders filling the frame, sawdust on his boots, and a towel slung over one shoulder that showed off every hard line of muscle underneath.
Caleb Turner. Lumberjack foreman. And my boss’s brother.
He looked at me like he was appraising falling timber—slow, deliberate, and dangerously sure of what he wanted.
I told myself I’d file this under ‘do not pursue.’ I told myself wanting someone who could upend my career was an invitation I couldn’t accept.
But when his thumb brushed my wrist as he handed back the clipboard, my whole body forgot every rule I’d ever made.
He leaned close enough that I could smell cedar and rain and whispered,
You were looking for the right shed, Naomi. You just found the right person instead.
