- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Molly Shields has come to Indian Rock at the request of Psyche Ryan. Molly is hoping for a glimpse of the son she gave up for adoption to Psyche and her husband - who was formerly Molly's lover now deceased. She arrives to find that Psyche is dying of cancer and wants to have Molly adopt and raise her son Lucas which was much more than Molly could have hoped for.But Psyche's childhood love - Keegan McKettrick - isn't willing to have Molly anywhere near Psyche's son since he knows about her affair with Psyche's husband. His attitude isn't much changed when her learns that Molly is Lucas's biological mother. Psyche has asked Keegan to manage her estate for Lucas after her death. But then Psyche has another idea: she wants Molly and Keegan to marry and form a family to raise Lucas. Keegan has already been part of one loveless marriage and has a ten-year-old daughter that his ex-wife uses as a hostage against him in order to get money from him. She is threatening to take their daughter with her to Paris where she will cavort with her lover while the daughter attends a boarding school. And while all this is going on: his ex-wife's threats, his childhood love dying, Keegan also has to deal with the company he has devoted his life to going public. He is going through some major life changes. Molly life isn't exactly stable either. She desperately wants to raise her son, but it means closing her successful career as a literary agent in Los Angeles, selling her house, and moving away from her alcoholic father. But somehow their pretend marriage becomes real, but not without trauma. I really enjoyed this story about two strong people who found a way to make a life together.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Keegan McKettrick has a lot to deal with. His ex-wife uses their daughter as a bargaining chip, and a substantial bloc of his family wants to take the company public. Meanwhile, Molly Shields comes to town at the behest of her former lover's widowed wife to hopefully regain custody of her child. The townspeople aren't big fans of Molly, particularly Keegen, who still holds a torch for the cuckolded Psyche. I almost didn't buy how quickly Keegan got over his hatred of Molly and came to love her. Even if she didn't know Psyche's husband was married, she still gave up their kid pretty quickly. Psyche's sudden cancer diagnosis and the husband's deceased state at the beginning of the book seemed pretty contrived. However, you almost don't care about all that because of how sweet and heartfelt these characters are. I'm not generally a fan of "Western" romance, but in Miller's hands it's eminently readable.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fans of Miller's will gobble this one up. She's good at creating these Alpha male heroes who are such jerks in the beginning that you almost don't want them to redeem themselves for the heroine later. The dialogue is snappy and the pace doesn't stall. The love scene is steamy and well-written. Readers will probably want to get other books in the series.
