The Lumberjack’s Boy by Grant C. Holland

Bruce Weathers lost his boy in a horrible lumbering accident, and Loren Baxter lost his daddy in a horrifying fire. Stricken with staggering grief, neither Bruce nor Loren believed they could ever replace the men who once made them whole. Then one day Loren appeared naked at the edge of Bruce’s Northwoods meadow, and despite their gap in ages, the attraction was mutual.

Bruce was a woodcutter with a lumberjack legacy. He lived in a cabin deep in the Northwoods, piecing together a living with small jobs. After years, he was still mourning the loss of his boy, Roman. When Loren appeared, it was a shock and a one-in-a-million surprise.

Loren lost his firefighter partner in a warehouse fire in the Twin Cities. Following a shared dream after relatives left him high and dry, he used any means possible to escape to the Northwoods. That was where Bruce found him, embarrassed, awkward, and buck naked.

After initial hesitance from both sides, Bruce and Loren decide to pursue a relationship. Unfortunately, the real world of dangerous jobs and dwindling income threatened to tear them apart.
