First we met lucky Jesse, then prideful Rance and now here's
Keegan whose heart has been carefully boarded up for several
years. Keegan is a survivor who has learned a difficult
lesson, love hurts so why bother. Of course he is a fiercely
protective member of the McKettrick family and doting father
to his daughter Devon. But Keegan's life is going through
some catastrophic changes. The family company he has devoted
his life to is probably going public putting his career in
question. His ex-wife is threatening to take their daughter
abroad. And the first love of his life is terminally ill.
Faced with this triple threat the last thing he needed was
any more complications in his personal life. Enter Molly
Shields. Molly is in Indian Rock to try to reclaim the child
she gave up for adoption to his biological father and his
wife. Leaving behind her successful business she dives
headlong into a situation where she is the proverbial duck
out of water -- a ranch no less. But she finds Indian Rock a
beautiful and gracious place and in time finds that she
could settle there if that would assure her claim for her
son Lucas. However Keegan isn't happy with Molly's
appearance because it will undoubtedly cause heartbreak to
his ill friend, Psyche, who happens to be the adoptive
mother. Psyche has a plan that pits Keegan against Molly and
the prize is Lucas. Someone will win and someone will once
again walk away with their heart broken. The question is who.
MCKETTRICK'S HEART is the final installment of the trilogy
and although I enjoyed them all I have to admit this is my
favorite. Once again the McKettrick's clan works like a well
oiled machine and the family saga continues. But you can't
help but fall in love with these special, vulnerable people
who have so much to gain and so much to lose. Our impression
of Keegan in the first two books is one of a tough corporate
businessman with little time or need for anything else. Once
you get to know him you realize he is the McKettrick with
the biggest heart and of course the bigger the heart the
more vulnerable you are. Miller infuses Keegan with a
beautiful soul that is eloquently illustrated in this lovely
story. Enjoy all three.
Keegan McKettrick echoes Kade, the serious, bookish and
stone-sexy town marshal in Shotgun
Bride, and
Keegan has learned the hard way that women can’t be trusted.
The only female in his life is the young daughter he sees
all too rarely, and his sole passion is for overseeing his
family’s corporation. Until beautiful but mysterious Molly
Shields comes to Indian Rock on a mission, and keeping a
suspicious eye on her becomes Keegan’s full-time hobby.
Molly doesn’t know why she’s attracted to a man who’s
determined to dig up dirt on her, even if he is gorgeous.
But cynical Keegan might be the one person who can truly
understand her shadowy past. If the two can risk opening
their hearts, they just might forge a brighter future.
