Montana Homecoming by Jillian Hart
McKaslin Series Book 20
Brooke McKaslin has lived away from her family for nine years now. She had been close to her brothers and after a shooting that almost took her half-sisters life, she bonded with her other three half-sisters as well. Brianna was about to testify against the man who had almost taken her life so Brooke came to Montana to be with her family as supported Bree through the trial. It's not like Brooke did not have the time. She just lost her job and because of her past she was not able to find jobs easily. And she had no desire to find a man. Betrayal from one man had run so deep that Brooke had steel walls around her heart and no desire to remove them, until a Liam and his dog Oscar bound into her life from the neighbor's yard. Liam Knightly fell for Oscar when he went to the animal shelter. Maybe he should have looked into what it entailed owning a large dog who it seems has separation issues. Good thing Brooke McKaslin knows something about training dogs. Liam keeps telling himself that he won't fall for the beautiful woman, he had a broken heart once and learned his lesson about women, or has he? Brooke is torn between telling Liam about her past or not. But as usual secrets always seem to find their way out of hiding at the very worst of times! Jillian will have you laughing one minute at the loopy lab, Oscar, and crying over the characters who just can't seem to get it right. I love how she brought the family into this book. We see Brianna and her fiance Max from Blind Date Bride and the rest of the family who's stories are yet to be told. Her brothers Luke & Hunter and half-sisters Colbie and Brianna's twin sister, Brandi. As well as Colbie's mom, Lil. **Warning: You may find you have the urge to go to the animal shelter and not be able to refuse any sad eyed dog that looks like it may want to go home with you!
