Review: Crooked Tree Ranch is the opener book for the Montana Series.
In this book we learn that three families own the Ranch, The Allens, the Strachens and the Todd brothers. Marcus is an older depressed man with health and issues and depression. His main job is to manage the money and take care of bills. He has been slipping lately and the Ranch is in big hurt with a failing economy and bad management. The Strachens are silent partners leaving Marcus and the three younger Todd brothers. Marcus suggests now insists they hire a marketing manager to help them stay afloat.
Jay has just lost his boyfriend and job and after no luck in finding a new one he moves his sister and her family with him to Montana. Both he and his sister fall in love with the location, the ranch and Todd brothers.
I loved this story. There is quite a bit going on, and it is in two views but easy to follow.
The characters are all well-developed, and I loved them all. I loved how Jay and Nate fought their attraction and how it was inevitable. The chemistry was perfect.
If you like market managers, creative men, rugged cowboys, new series, Montana, cute kids, sweet romance and some hot man-sex, this is for you
