Review:
Being
only a short holiday romance, I can honestly say that I loved this story and
wish it had been even longer. While Cole
was an ass a good bit of the story, the tragic life that both Cole and his brother
experienced means I have no problem with giving them some slack in the manners
and trust departments. Maia is just the
breath of fresh air that these two wounded men need in their lives I was actually rather surprised by the
content of this story, coming from this author, mainly because I expected even
more paranormal aspects than I got. I
have read pretty much everything written by Christine Feehan and have never
been disappointed, and Rocky Mountain
Miracle was no exception.
Maia
for the most part tries to keep herself from getting attached or involved with
the brothers, but the more she learns about them and their pasts the deeper she
falls. Cole never imagined he'd actually
fall in love. He’s always known that he was too broken to have a normal
relationship with a woman, but when he sees Maia, hears her defending him to
his naysayers, he is unable to resist chasing after the filly who has caught
his eye. As they come together to find
out who is trying to sabotage and endanger the ranch , Cole and Maia begin to understand the true
importance of trust and love, as well as acceptance and understanding. In the end it comes down to accepting where
you belong in the world is where you can do the most to
help those you love to heal from their hurts, physical and emotional.
Rocky Mountain Miracle
was the Christmas story I never knew I was missing. With drama, intrigue, passion and betrayal,
and ultimately forgiveness and love, I was hooked from the very first page and
fell in love with the H/h and the younger hero as well. With beautiful settings, vivid characters,
and a perfectly sculpted plot line, this story is an ultimate holiday read. Maia is sweet but world weary, a combination
that is truly rare When she finds
herself faced with the heat that Cole causes in her heart, there is no denying
she's in over her head, but there's no way she will give up her chance to
experience his lust. Cole sees Maia
simply as a conquest at first, a sexy woman that pulls at him, but only for him
to ravish her and then let her go; he doesn’t do relationships after all. When the world around them becomes dangerous
and complicated, only building trust and belief in each other will keep them all
safe. The passion is palpable at all
times and I love seeing these two interacting.
I am hoping their might be a sequel where Cole's brother finds his own
HEA down the line. Another masterpiece
Christine!
