The Final book in the Montana Series
Review:
I kinda loved Rob. Even though he is a pretty scary guy, and a part of me hated how he “turned” on Justin in book three, I understood. I understood him, I understood his and Justin’s past, and I understood his need to reach out to the only person he could trust, Justin. Justin didn’t want any part of his past coming to Montana or coming to threatened his life with Sam, but he also understood that Rob was desperate…and he came with two small children who needed help. Something that Second Chance Ranch can provide.
Aaron and Rob together were an equal mix of sexy and comedy. Even though there was nothing funny about Rob’s situation, Aaron was all about getting himself laid and getting laid with Rob. No matter what Rob said verbally, and he said a lot, his eyes spoke the truth. Aaron is like a determined puppy and Rob is his new toy. Rob never stood a chance. But, Aaron doesn’t know about the secrets in Rob’s life. Secrets that can end any hope of forever before they ever get started.
I enjoyed this installment of the Montana series, even though men with children are not a favorite trope of mine. But in this case, the kids were the only thing that brought Rob to the ranch, and by extension, to Aaron. They play an intrical part, but they do not take away from the blooming romance between these two alpha males. My heart really did go out for Rob, and I sometimes really wanted to smack Justin for being such a jackass to him, but…. there is always a but. In the end, though is seemed unlikely, Aaron and Rob get their hard won happy ending, and Justin earned a few brownie points.
Overall Impression: I really liked it
