Publisher's summary

Mary Elizabeth Potter is a self-appointed spinster with no illusions about love. But she is a good teacher, and she wants Wolf Mackenzie's son back in school. And after one heated confrontation with the boy's father, she knows father and son have changed her life forever.

Still paying for a crime he didn't commit, Wolf Mackenzie has a chip on his shoulder the size of Wyoming. But prim-and-proper Mary Elizabeth Potter doesn't see Wolf as the dangerous half-breed the town has branded him. Somehow she sees him as a good, decent, honest man. A man who could love....Wolf's not sure he, or the town of Ruth, Wyoming, is ready for the taming of Wolf Mackenzie.

nice little story

if you're looking for just a short simple romance with a little mystery this is for you.

Love this story

If you get the choice listen to the library audio that was on you tube, the reader is 100 times better than this one, this reader almost ruins the story

Great story

Awesome story line and book the content for the next one is awesome too thanks

I don’t like the abridged version

I have this complete series on paper, ebooks and now audio. I’m very disappointed that the story that started it all doesn’t have a complete audio book. This is a poorly abridged story, in my opinion, because some of the incidents from the book are changed in the audio book in order to have the abridged version. There are things that wee omitted on this version,but the way it was done made it so it changed facts from what it’s in the book. I hope this company comes out with an unabridged version of this book. The narrator is good.

hummmmmmmm

I read this book a very long time ago. When I was looking for an "easy" listen and did not have much to spend, I decided on this book to revisit a book I really enjoyed. I did not realize this is an abridged version and I should have paid more attention because it made a huge difference. The full story has more depth and is just a much better product than this abridged audio. The story we find here is so rushed, you do not get invested in the characters at all and you loose some of the more interesting interactions which flesh out these characters. It is like the author had 20 minutes to write, the narrator had 30 minutes to read and we are left with this somewhat half finished, hollow feeling tale. If you were to listen to this, you would have no desire to continue what ended up being a 4 or 5 part series following the children of Hawk and Mary Elizabeth. A really great book with good characters reduced to what felt like 15 minutes of fluff.

The narrator did a pretty good job and I would listen to another book read by her.

Wish it wasn’t abridged

Too bad the tools who used to run publishing always abridged the audio copies of popular books. Considering this was originally published as a Harlequin, it wasn’t that long to begin with.
This was, and always has been, my favorite older Harlequin. It even became a mini series with books for each child, starting with Joe. Definitely recommend the books.

Disappointed

was disappointed with this story. Some of the story is not correct. I have read the book and was disappoint that the story line was twisted around. The narrator just couldn't pull off the guys voices well. She did great on Mary's part.

Abridged

Narrator was great. I love the book and wanted an audible version. Had I known it was abridged, I would not have bought it. That's the sole reason for the low rating given.

Wish it were unabridged

This is a great book and the abridged version is awful. Way too many important facts and dialogue edited out.

Mackenzie’s Mountain

I loved this book. The story line is unique and suspenseful. I did like the characters : pure to mean. I wanted to read more about the grown children of Miss Potter and Wolf. This story is believable. I enjoyed it very much. I did not like the narrator in the audible version. You might sell more audio books without this reader.
