1: Got Hooked on The McKettrick Family with This Book.
I just loved this Romantic Western. I'm Hooked on the McKettrick Men Series now and have ordered all the other Series of books to read about the history of the McKettrick Family. I only Wish I would have gone to Linda Lael Miller's Website first and got the order of the books to read on The McKettrick Family, but what ever book you pick up of hers, it will be an easy read and just as fascinated. I will probably reread this one again.

4: Okay, but as good as the others in this series
I love the LLM books, historical series, contemporary series, sleuth series. They are all great, but this I didn't enjoy nearly as much. The only thing I found interesting was the joining of descendant of the O'Ballivans (see The Man From Stone Creek and a descendant of the McKettricks together.
Brad O'Ballivan from Stone Creek, a famous country singer, was hard to like. Teenage sweethearts, he left Meg McKettrick to pursue his dream, told her he would be back and then went on to marry someone else almost immediately, breaking Meg's heart. Brad became famous, divorced, notched up many more conquests on his bedpost, married and divorced again, made pots of money, became disillusioned with his lifestyle and came home to settle down, hopefully with Meg. For all his songwriting and singing talent, he seemed shallow, selfish and a bit stupid.
Meg, has worked her way up in the company business and had returned home to the old homestead built by her great-great whatever grandfather. She has always wanted a child, and lost one years before. I don't want to put too much of a spoiler in here, but it is important to the plot. She becomes responsible for a half-sister she didn't know she had, and the youngster thinks the sun shines out of Brad O'Ballivan. For such a strong woman, I felt like shaking Meg when she succumbed to Brad O'Ballivan's dubious charms, especially when he made a movie complete with love scenes with his ex-wife.
Maybe it is because I don't like cheats, maybe it is because I don't like smart, strong women who behave out of character when they are in love, or maybe it is because I think the name Brad sounds like a third-rate Australian soap star, but for me, I found this book a bit depressing and definitely not as good as Sierra's Homecoming (The McKettrick Series #5), McKettrick's Heart (McKettrick Men Series #3), McKettrick's Luck (McKettrick Men Series #1) orMcKettrick's Pride (The McKettrick Series #7), the other books in this series. If I had read McKettrick's Way first, I might have skipped the series.

5: Another great McKettrick story....
Linda Lael Miller is great in weaving a story. I especially like her McKettrick family stories set in the old west.
