Book Review of Managing A Family

Managing A Family
Janet13 avatar reviewed from amazon.com on + 20 more book reviews


J J Massa continues her Montgomery Family series with Managing A Family. This is another page turner! First, Yancey Montgomery sleeps with his young mate without recognizing that a) she is his mate and b) he's known her all her life. Philomena Crossland does not take kindly to being used like the girl of the moment, especially for her first time. Although Yancey marked and mated her, he didn't even know her name. Philly flees his presence and determines to hide herself from her new mate at all costs. This is nothing like the seduction and lovemaking she had always dreamed of with Yancey.

We also get a taste of the relationship with Ashley and Myles and how Myles in his thoughtless manliness can screw up. Myles and Ashley have known they were mates since Ashley was a child. Myles has waited for her to mature into womanhood, but now that she has, he seems to ignore it. You'll have to wait for their tale, but you'll be begging for it by the end of Managing a Family.

Philly will bring her mate to his knees before it is all said and done, but there is much heartache and danger involved before the fall.

J J Massa brings back all of your favorite characters including patriarch Mik in this angst filled story. There's plenty of butt kicking Montgomery Style and sexual tension as only Ms. Massa can write it. Her descriptive writing leaves you feeling every heartache and dodging every punch. Both these story lines were so strong that I actually expected them to conclude together, but this was only a teaser for Ashley and Myles. At least we know there are more Montgomerys to come!
