Big Sky River

Big Sky River - Linda Lael Miller I have enjoyed this series so far and I was eager to read the third installment. Big Sky River is Boone and Tara's story. I wish I could say that I liked this one as much as the first two, but it was a bit disappointing. The bulk of the book deals with Boone's children coming back to live with him and getting to know him again as their father. It also involves Tara's step-daughters coming to sty with her for the summer. I did enjoy those parts. Watching Boone realize it was time to let go and move one was bitter sweet.

The problem that I had was that Boone and Tara don't get together until the last 1/4 of the book. Once they do they are talking marriage. It felt forced and a bit rushed. I wanted more of them together and maybe an epilogue would have helped. The characters from the previous books show up in this one, so maybe we will see more of Boone and Tara in the next one. Big Sky Summer comes out in May. I'm looking forward to reading it.
