The “First Lady of the West,” #1
New York Times
bestselling author Linda Lael Miller, cordially invites you to Parable, Montana-where love awaits.  

Wedding
bells are ringing in Parable, Montana, but Brylee Parrish hasn’t
enjoyed the sound since being jilted at the altar by Hutch Carmody.
She’s over Hutch now, and running a multimillion-dollar business is
challenging enough for this country gal. So she should avoid
falling head-over-boot-heels for A-list actor Zane Sutton. He’s come
home to his rodeo roots, but Hollywood lured him away once and just
might again. Yet everything about him, from his easy charm to his
concern for his young half brother, seems too genuine to resist….

Zane
didn’t come to Parable for love-but count on a spirited woman to change
a jaded cowboy’s mind. Problem is, Brylee’s not convinced he’s here to
stay. Good thing he’s determined to prove to her, kiss by kiss, that
she’s meant to be his bride.

My thoughts:
Oh, Linda Lael Miller – you’ve done it again…I am totally over the
moon with your ‘Swoon-Worthy Cowboys’ series. This is the 5th book
in Linda Lael Miller’s Swoon-Worthy Cowboy series and I’ve been waiting
for a long time to see if Brylee ever gets her happily-ever-after and I
definitely was not disappointed!

Big
Sky Wedding is Brylee and Zane’s story. Brylee is still dealing with
the humiliation of being left at the alter. It seems everyone else
around her has found love but her and she is struggling to believe that
there really is someone out there for her. Zane is trying to find
himself. He was once a country boy but was lured by the lights of
Hollywood. Taking some time to figure things out, he heads to the ranch
that he and his brother bought as an investment. Little did he know that
not only would he find love, but also the real meaning of family. From
the moment he and Brylee meet, the sparks start flying and while neither
is looking for anything, it seems love has a different plan. Then
there’s Nash, Zane’s younger step-brother who is dumped on his door. 

While
I loved Brylee and Zane’s story, it was the story of Zane and Nash that
stole my heart. Nash just wanted to be wanted and never knew when he
was going to be thrusted onto someone else. As Zane gets to know him and
realize just how much his father’s actions have damaged this young boy,
his guilt gets the best of him. But he realizes he needs to tread
slowly – Nash is definitely very slow to trust anyone.

One
of my favorite characters in this whole series has been Opal, better
known as matchmaker extraordinaire! But, not that she’s married herself
to the local pastor, she’s far too busy to keep up with the matchmaking.
Enter Cleo, Zane’s overzealous housekeeper from LA. She is one woman I
certainly wouldn’t want to mess with!

I
just love this series and was so excited to find out that there will be
another installment coming out early next year. I can’t wait to find
out who the story will be about!
