MONTANA CREEDS: LOGAN

Montana Creeds: Logan
by
Linda Lael Miller

7/5/2009

(First in "Montana Creeds" trilogy)


Descendants of the legendary McKettrick family, the Creeds are renowned in Stillwater Springs, Montana—for raising hell…

After years of wandering, Logan Creed, a cowboy with a dusty law degree, has returned home. To put down roots, to restore his family's neglected ranch…to have kids of his own proudly bearing the Creed name.

Divorced mom Briana Grant has heard the stories about her gorgeous neighbor. So Logan's kindness with her young boys is a welcome surprise, especially when her ex reappears. And when an unknown enemy vandalizes her home, Logan shows Briana—and the folks of Big Sky country—just what he's made of.
______________________________________________

**** (4 Stars) I haven't read a Linda Lael Miller book in several years--even longer still from a McKettrick/Creed series, but I am sure glad I did. This was a really great start to a new spin-off trilogy about the Creed family. Logan, the oldest brother of the three, starts off the series...he's successful, yet has failed in many ways and he returns to his roots to find himself and forgiveness, and in the process finds Briana, the love of his life.

I love the way that Ms. Miller developed the characters in this story. Younger brother Dylan made some appearances (and I think I am already in love with him) and our main characters Logan, Briana, and her two boys Alec and Josh, are believable and loveable. Even Vance, Briana's ex-husband makes a good character in the story (I have known a few Vance's in my time!) You can tell this is a Harlequin extended story--it has most of the basic formula there, but it was really enjoyable and feel-good at the end. Now...on to book two. Dylan!!!
