What could be better than a new book by R.C. Ryan? Well a
new series of course. MATT is the first story of The
Malloy's of Montana series and take it from me it's
riveting. In MATT R.C. Ryan introduces a
resourceful, loving family that will take on anyone that
dares to threaten their lifestyle and people. The
Malloys maintain a huge ranch in the Montana mountain
area with hard work, ingenuity and intelligence. The
Malloys are going to need all this and more when danger
invades their world.
Matt Malloy has taken on the expected responsibilities
being the oldest of three brothers. Their parents killed
in a freak car accident Matt, Luke and Reid are left in
the care of grandparents and an amazing support staff at
the family ranch. Matt often travels as sort of a sales
person for ranch products. As much as he enjoys his
travels Matt's heart is Malloy Ranch. Although Malloy
Ranch encompasses several thousand miles the family is
well respected by the town and enjoys a wonderful
relationship with everyone it seems.
Vanessa Kettering is quite a surprise on many fronts.
Vanessa was on the Malloy Ranch to interview Gracie --
Matt's grandmother -- who was a noted photographer of wild
mustangs among other species. Vanessa is a lawyer
working as a wild animal advocate. This interview would
be a feather in her cap. But instead of meeting with
Gracie, Vanessa found herself with grandson Matt who
proves to be diligent and unmovable. So instead of a quick
visit Vanessa's time with Matt was
fated to be rather extensive.
Totally unexpected Vanessa needs a safe place to remain --
a hideout so to speak - since it appears there is a
threat to her safety. The Malloy family is determined to
keep this lovely woman safe and the seclusion of their
vast land would appear to be a great solution.
The race is on to keep Vanessa secure and Matt is
determined that nothing will happen to her on his watch.
In the meantime we are treated to an adventure with
Gracie and Vanessa in the wilds witnessing the spectacle
of the world of the mustangs in their natural
environment. Beautiful imagery and careful attention to
the respect for these animals are all par for R.C. Ryan and
her love of all things nature. Camping out should be
rough and tough but with the Malloys there is an element
of civilization in all they do and camping is no
exception. Just wait till you see what they consider
roughing it.
Pure enjoyment even with an element of danger MATT is a
visually wonderful tale. R.C. Ryan creates an eclectic
group -- a family -- filled with characters so lovable and
intelligent that you can't help getting attached. MATT is
an exciting adventure romance with a majestic setting.
The Malloys of Montana promises to be another fabulous
series by R.C. Ryan.
A MALLOYS OF MONTANA NOVEL Wild
Horses Couldn't Drag Him Away From
Her
Raised beneath the big Montana sky, Matt
Malloy was never meant to be a jet-setting businessman. But
he'll do anything to protect the family ranch he shares with
his brothers. Coming home after a two-week trip to Italy,
Matt wants nothing more than to shed his suit and tie for a
well-worn pair of jeans and ride his horse up to the cabin
for some alone time. The last thing he needs is a big-city
lawyer invading his privacy-even if she is the most
beautiful woman he's ever seen . . .
Vanessa
Kettering has devoted her life to her work. As a passionate
animal rights defender, she doesn't have room for anything
else. But from the moment she meets Matt, she's taken with
this rugged cowboy's lazy smile and tender touch. When a
raging storm traps them inside his cabin for the night, one
steamy kiss leads to another, sweeping them away with a
force that's as wild and untamed as the land he loves. But
when the morning light comes, will she lose her heart?
