Welcome back to Beertooth Montana where B.J. Daniels has
created a diorama of mystery in an amazing series. HARD
RAIN is the latest installment in the Montana
Hamiltons,
a series that is quite
honestly hard to put down. B.J. Daniels keeps upping the
ante on the ongoing presidential campaign of Buckmaster
Hamilton and his six daughters and two wives. Poor
Buckmaster, or Buck as he is known to his friends, has an
uphill battle in his race for the White House and in HARD
RAIN B.J. Daniels throws into play the biggest wrench to
date.
A particularly hard rain storm virtually opens a can of
worms. Steeped in rumors the disappearance of Maggie
McTavish has remained a mystery in Beertooth
Montana and for her family. They had to go on with life
with an ever present hole created by her sudden absence. So
many stories of why she ran away—scandalous affair
with a
married man—Maggie was best known as a wild teenage
girl
with considerably loose morals.
But by a strange twist of fate, Maggie's disappearance is
now being considered a murder with everyone pointing
fingers as the list of possible suspects and prospects
grow.
In a small closely knit community everyone knows everyone,
but that doesn't mean they are friends. In fact two
families have been feuding and holding a grudge for
generations. Now that feud will once again be resurrected
just when Brody McTavish and Harper Hamilton realize their
mutual growing attraction. Brody and Harper are facing a
sort of Romeo and Juliet fractious rebellion to their
budding relationships.
They need to find a solution to the murder if they have a
possible future together. Needless to say there are forces
that would prefer to keep facts surrounding Maggie's death
buried. If she was murdered then her killers could very
well be at large.
B.J. Daniels creates quite a chase to ferret out a murderer
in HARD RAIN while also developing a wondrous romance.
HARD RAIN is an intelligent study in the dynamics within a
candidly dysfunctional family. So many skeletons to deal
with—no pun intended. This is the fourth book in the
Montana Hamiltons series, which has absolutely
captured
my
attention with its storyline and characters who become
more developed and seasoned in each installment. You can
easily step into the Montana Hamilton series at any
time.
Daniels makes sure to include little tidbits about each
characters to remind us of their importance in the
developing storyline.
Sooner or later, every family secret comes to
light…
When Brody McTavish sees Harper Hamilton's runaway horse
galloping across the pastures, he does what any good cowboy
would do—gives chase and rescues her. Unfortunately for him,
the woman he's secretly loved for years didn't need saving,
and she's just reached her limit with people treating her as
hopeless. But they soon have bigger problems when they make
a gruesome discovery—human remains revealed by a recent
rainstorm. Remains that will dredge up old Hamilton family
mysteries…and bring about a scandal that could threaten all
Harper's loved ones.
With her father running for president, every move Harper
makes is under scrutiny. But despite the risks, she's
determined to uncover the truth about her family's role in a
long-ago murder. If she can trust him enough, Brody will be
more than an ally. He could be the only thing standing
between Harper and an enemy intent on keeping the past
buried forever.
