Loved this book just like I love all of the McKettrick series!
I like the story line and the family aspect of a good romance.
It was a terrific read. All three in this series were very good.
Great story of 3 brothers and a desire by the eldest to clean up 'the family name.' Be sure to read all 3.
I have very few books on my "keeper" shelf, but Linda Lael Miller's are often there. Her cowboys, both historical and contemporary, are men you want as friends and lovers. And her writing often makes me re-read a sentence or paragraph. An example:
"When she got in the Blazer and went to finish out her workday, she left a hole in the fabric of the day that he had no idea how to weave back together."
Someone reviewed this series on Amazon and was dismayed that some of the love scenes were explicit. I disagree. I often read Ellora's Cave books; THOSE are explicit. Ms. Miller's are sweet and sensuous.
If you haven't read books by this author, I highly recommend them.
Dylan is the second in the Montana Creed's trilogy. Well written and captures your imagination.
This is the 2nd book in the trilogy and it was great and also had some lead in for the next and final book.

We read lots of stories about single moms but Dylan Creed is a single dad. Not by choice but because the mother of his daughter abandons the child in Dylan's truck while he is playing poker. Ill equipped to care for a child, Dylan decides to head back to Stillwater Springs Montana where he was raised. Soon after arriving he bumps into Kristy Madison, the woman who at one time meant everything to him. Kristy is still drawn to Dylan and is very taken with his daughter Bonnie.
Kristy is confronted with secrets from her past that place her in danger. Who is always there to protect her? Dylan of course. They have lots of issues related to their past to work through as they each begin to dream of a future together as a family of three.
In the meantime Dylan is trying to work through the complicated situation with his brothers Logan and Tyler that came to a head after their father's funeral. Can the brothers be brought together? Part of the answer is here and Ms Miller is making us wait until book 3 of the trilogy - Tyler's story - to give us the final answer.
Dylan's story is a wonderful read and I recommend it.
Book two in the Montana Creeds, continues this fasinating story with a little bit of intrigue.
