Over the last few years I have read and even reread (and for me that is amazing) the stories she wrote on the Mackenzies. It was the first Linda Howard books I read and by far the best. She has discribed these people well and yet made them so endearing. It is what everyone would and should expect from a hero. This was the last one that I finally got to read on the family (truly it is a sad day that I have finished the series). Again she does not disappoint as you read through the book. In fact if you have read them in order you truly will enjoy this one as the main character Maris is outspoken and leaves nothing to 'chance' (A Game of Chance is the next book in the series and the last). I saved this book especially for the time I was on vacation and am a little embarrased to admit that reading it was nearly the highlight of my day. I expect that even though I don't reread books much (hers being an exception) I will be picking these books up again and again just to enjoy my favorite spots.
SERIES ADDITIONS -- ALL THREE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The story of Maris Mackenzie should have been full length but the story was excellent in itself [if too short].Meeting up with the FBI special agent Alex MacNeil and tumbling in love with him in the process of trying to catch horse killers was fascinating. I thoroughly enjoyed the scenes of setting up the sting and the complications. But most enjoyable of all, of course, was going back to Mackenzie's Mountain and rejoining Wolf and Mary's family.Note that this is the 4th story in the Mackenzie series with Chance's story following to complete the series.Also be aware that Debbie Macomber's story is a follow-up of the Manning family series.And Linda Turner's story is a follow-up to the Wild West series of the Rawlings family - Love these add ons. Just too short.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ALL especially for family catch-ups.
Satisfying

For once, I like all of the authors who contributed to this book. I got it because I wanted to read about Maris McKenzie. It was very satisfying to me. I love the McKenzie family.Debbie Macomber and Linda Howard also contributed a good story each. The only reason I give this book 4 stars is the stories were too short. I prefer these authors in longer formats.
Ilike the books on the Mckinzies, I would like more of them.

I especially enjoyed Linda Howard's continuation of the Mackenzie family. Maris' story includes all of the elements that make a Linda Howard book so difficlut to put down. The hero was a surprise. A must for this author's fans. Debbie Macomber's "Silver Bells" was one of her better stories and a true pleasure to read. Then Linda Turner added her story to make this one of the best holiday books published for Christmas.
