Publisher's summary

Her grandfather wants her to come home, and Molly thinks she just might. His ranch will be a good place for her sons to grow up, a place to escape big-city influences. Then she learns - from a stranger named Sam Dakota - that her grandfather is ill. Possibly dying. Molly packs up the kids without a second thought and makes the long drive to Sweetgrass, Montana.

Once she arrives, she immediately has questions about Sam Dakota. Why is he working on her grandfather’s ranch? Why doesn’t the sheriff trust him? Just who is he? But despite everything, Molly can’t deny her attraction to Sam - until her ailing grandfather tries to push them into marriage.

Moving to the state of Montana is one thing; entering the state of matrimony is another! Some borders aren’t so easy to cross….

Trusting Again isn't Easy.

Molly had been let down once by a lying, thieving, conniving man, but when her gramps suggests she marry Sam Dakota because he is a good man she balks. She had thought never to marry again and open herself up to the heartache of another deceitful man, but with her grandfather days numbered and her love and trust in the old man, she begins to give his suggestion some thought. Her two sons do need a father, she can’t run the ranch by herself, it’s in such bad shape and with all the weird things that has been happening she does need Sam. Can this desperate mom trust a man with a shady past with her family’s future?
I really enjoyed this story. It’s one of learning to trust again, of thinking before acting, of asking the right questions before jumping to conclusions, of communicating, of loving.

This book is a “ Must read” !!!!!!!

I loved this book. It held my attention from beginning to end. The narration was excellent! What I especially liked about it, is that this book wasn’t riveted with curse words like some of them are. This author is truly fantastic. I will be reading another one of her books.

Excellent

A very enjoyable listen with a great story and strong characters, I think this book is one of Debbie Macomber's best and Emily Beresford did a great job with the narration. Definitely worth the credit.

great book

the narration fit this book. the author writes all of her books with just the right amount of authenticity. I felt I was right there as a neighbor to the Weatons and the residents of Sweetgrass.

I Couldn't Finish It


Montana, as long as I could stand to listen, may have developed into something, if it'd had a better narrator. I tried to hang in there...but it was just too boring, and I felt a waste of time. After all, we do listen for enjoyment.

The Story is about a woman with 2 boys getting a fresh start by moving from San Francisco, where her husband has been convicted of fraud, to live on her grandfather's ranch, which she will inherit. Her grandfather's ill, his Foreman an ex-rodeo star, who spent 2 years in prison for assault, questions whether he will stay on the ranch once Molly moves in.

It may be the stereo type where she falls in love with the Foreman, while he saves the day from ranch difficulties, and helps her wayward oldest son, but I just couldn't listen long enough to find out...I may be wrong, but even if the story proves to be unique, the performance would still ruin it for me.

Awful! Awful! and Awful!

I can't even put into words how awful this was. I recommend you skip this one.

Good story but I wish there was more

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

This was a good listen. There is a solid story. It takes a long to get into the story. A long time to create the plot with many strings that don't come together until the end. Once you get to the end to the book it resolves all the plot line too quickly in the last short chapter.

Listener Beware

It's an Ok story, several twists. I was not expecting the explicit sex, which came as a surprise listening to the book in the car with my husband. Not our kind of shared read, and it was just so not necessary. The language was also unnecessarily crude. I think books should have ratings, or at least warnings. You hear of an author based on sweet Christmas stories and when you listen to another book you're shocked and basically disgusted that you spent money on this trash. Besides the X rating, the narrator was not good. All of her male voices were basically the same.

Storyline was good

I like Debbie Macomber's storylines but her writing seems a bit simplistic. And Emily Beresford is not one of my favorite narrators. Her inflection always seems to be on the wrong word in the sentence. Overall it's a quick listen if you don't mind the lack of description and character development.
