Story
Brian Montgomery loved the life he lived as the son of Chuck and Vivian Alexander Montgomery. As the general manager of his family’s Alex-Mont Ranches in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, Mitchell County, Maryland, and Summer County, South Carolina, his days were what he wanted them to be. He wished for nothing and, although he didn’t know anything about his biological history, he relished the family who adopted him. No, he had everything he wanted - the love of family and friends. Women weren’t kicking him out of their beds, so he was content.

Caitlyn Sullivan had come from a long line of Hollywood royalty, stretching back to her Irish immigrant great-grandfather. At nine, she was already a star - yet still an innocent child who loved to play hide-and-seek with her cousins at the family home in Big Sur. It was during one of those games that she disappeared. Some may have considered her a pampered princess, but Cate was in fact a smart, scrappy fighter, and she managed to escape her abductors. Callan Cooper was shocked to find the bloodied, exhausted girl huddled in his house.

Everybody Loves Tim Conway AND Kelly Conway
- By Catherine on 11-16-21
By: Kelly Conway, and others
Publisher's Summary
Sport icon Will Hamilton, known in the world of baseball and society pages as the "Hammer", watched as prima ballerina Linda Lewis twirled unbelievably fast on pointed toes. Generally, classical ballet was not his thing, but as the spotlights followed her across the big, empty, darkened Broadway stage, he found himself mesmerized. The audience also seemed to be held in a state of suspended animation. He looked around him to see those sitting close to him with their eyes riveted on her and gleaming.
She was perfect in every dimension: tall, proportionally slim with perfect, strong, muscular arms, legs, and thighs. Her carriage was high, tight, and regal. Yet, she was as graceful as the swan her character portrayed. Linda Lewis, known in the theater world as “the Black Swan”, a rare species whose life - like all those in her profession - is completely consumed with dance to the exclusion of all else, including love.
She’s lived with the demands she and others placed on her life and on her body to perform each time in perfectly flawless symmetry. Now, she fears her body will fail her, her career will end, and questions what she will do with her life once the cheering stops?
Along the way, she’s been stalked. Her security team has kept her safe from harm, but if her stalker ever got his hands on her, the cheering may not be the only thing that stops.

An Ulterior Motive
A spin off of The Wisdom of the Ancestors series, this is the first book in The Alex-Mont Kids Saga. This is a stand alone story, but I loved hearing the updates of characters I’ve grown to know and love.
This is Linda and Will’s story. Two successful, strong individuals that are brought together. I loved the twist of the stalker!
Ann Jeffries has created an epic extended family, and I love how each new story expands the circle of characters. I’m looking forward to seeing what comes next.
I can’t imagine anyone but Kelley Hazen narrating these books. She has given each character their own voice and their personality comes through loud and clear. A fantastic listen!

An Ulterior Motive
Ann Jeffries has written another fantastic book in An Ulterior Motive. I loved the relationship of Linda and Will. The cameo appearances of other characters from the Wisdom of Ancestors was an added bonus. The book has great imagery, suspense, chemistry and an added stalker. I hadn't expected the ending, but found it so fitting. Kelley Hazen is magical bringing the characters to life. She gives them distinguishable voices, and is able to perform a wide range of ages, ethnic backgrounds, and genders. This book is a standalone listen. I loved it!

A Great Listen
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and found it fun. I've listened to the books from the Wisdom of the Ancestors series out of order, so it's interesting to go into the future and hear this series from the beginning. All these books are based on family and friends and its can be uplifting listening at times and at others you just find yourself laughing out loud and you have to back it up because you've missed something. After childhood of surgeries, Linda is now a Prima Ballerina considering what to do next in her life. She decides on opening a dance school with the money she's earned. Dancing has not only brought her wealth, its brought her fame and a stalker. It's very enjoyable with a surprise ending. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Good Read
An Ulterior Motive: The Alex-Mont Kids Saga #1 was a good read by Ann Jeffries. Will Hamilton is a sports icon that is known to the world as The Hammer. Linda Lewis is a prima ballerina who goes incredibly fast on her pointed toes. Will isn't usually a classical ballet guy but when he sees Linda, he's mesmerized. Linda is known to the theatre world as "The Black Swan". She fears that her body will fail her and her career would end. She wants to figure out what she will do with her life then. Her security team must also keep her safe from a stalker. I enjoyed reading Will and Linda's story and can't wait to read more by the author.

A good story but
A good story line but for my liking too much emphasis on give the characters their full name most of the time which for I felt takes away some of the excitement in the story. Also everything a town was mentioned, the state was also told, I feel there was no need to go into so much detail. Good story but a little refinement would make it a better story.
In my opinion the narrator really spoilt this book for me, I couldn’t work out if it was a person or a robotic voice, sorry, but this is my opinion.
I received this book for an honest opinion.
