Sweet Montana Bride Series

Sweet Montana Bride #1-3

by Kimberly Krey

Sweet Montana Bride Series, featuring witness protection ~ rancher style includes Reese's Cowboy Kiss, Jade's Cowboy Crush, and Cassie's Cowboy Crave.

Reese’s Cowboy Kiss:

Texan pageant winner, Reese Taylor, has a former classmate
who wants her dead. Now she must leave her friends and family
to enter a protection program on Emerson Ranch. A group of
good-looking cowboys awaits her, but Reese has her eye on
Blake Emerson, the one man too busy with the ranch to
give her a chance.

Blake Emerson has no time to go lookin’ for love. He’s got
a ranch to run, positions to fill, and an ache in his heart
from love gone wrong. So when he agrees to harbor a witness
to help on the ranch, Blake assumes his first two problems are
solved. But he never dreamed his new guest would be a
woman. One he was destined to lose his heart to.

With sparks burning hot and danger around the bend, one
question lingers in his mind: Has he only added to his list
of troubles, or has Blake just found the woman of his dreams?


Jade’s Cowboy Crush:

Single mother, Jade Miller, has just witnessed a murder. Now, set to testify against the cold-blooded killer, Jade must be placed under protection. While she is grateful to the kind folks who’ve offered to take in her and her son, Jade is surprised to find the man escorting them from L.A. to Montana is Gavin Emerson. A womanizing, far-too-attractive-for-his-own-good, rebel cowboy. Jade assures Gavin that she has sworn off men until her son is grown, but all too soon she finds herself fighting back feelings for the man who’s agreed to care for them.

Gavin wants nothing to do with ranch life. Not since the ugly fallout he had with his father over eight years ago. But when he agrees to come back, harboring Jade and her son for a time, Gavin falls in love with life on the land once again. Above that, he finds his heart has been captured by his lovely house guest, Jade Miller.

After reservations on both parts, the two are finally ready to open up and give their new-found love a try. Only they aren’t in the clear just yet, and as a dark and deadly threat falls upon them, Gavin finds that his bad-boy past may have led the danger right to their door.

Cassie’s Cowboy Crave:

Twenty-four-year-old Cassie Lovell has a great job, good friends, and an apartment with a killer view. That is, until life is turned upside down. Without the chance to say goodbye, Cassie is forced into a witness protection program on Emerson Ranch. Just when she fears life is doomed, Cassie meets Shane Emerson, the stunningly handsome cowboy who’ll be posing as her newlywed groom.
Shane Emerson is determined not to fall for the woman he’s agreed to harbor. Especially since the whole thing was his family’s way of trying to get him hitched. So why is it when he takes Cassie into his home, Shane wants nothing more than to turn their make-believe marriage into more than just a sham?
In a moment of weakness, Shane steals a kiss.
In return, Cassie steals his heart.
Yet before they confess their undying love,
a hidden danger threatens to tear them apart.

[Kathy * Bookworm Nation · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was the first series I read by Ms Krey and I've been a fan ever since. I remember she had originally published this series in reverse order! This is a fun series and each book has a level of suspense that adds a fun element to each story. Swoony romances and great kisses!

Reese’s Cowboy Kiss
MY THOUGHTS: Loved this series! Love the idea of a nice family taking care of people in witness protection. So different from what you see on TV. When the books first came out they were released backwards so I actually read this one last. It was a little more difficult that way because I had already heard bits and piece of Reese’s story. However, I was also very excited to fill in the details I didn’t know. I loved Blake and Reese’s story. It is so sweet and I enjoy the way that Kimberly writes romance. It is kind of intense yet tasteful and clean. If you love romance novels this is definitely a series to read!

Jade’s Cowboy Crush
MY THOUGHTS: I think this was my favorite of the series! I liked Gavin’s rebellious attitude that didn’t want anything to do with the family business. Kind of reminds me of me.  Gavin and Jade’s story just made me think a lot of me and my husband. All the great time we had when we were dating and just kind of how we treated each other and all that! I didn’t have a kid like Jade but he did…. As I’ve said before, I enjoy the way that Kimberly writes romance. It is kind of intense yet tasteful and clean. If you love romance novels this is definitely a series to read!

Cassie’s Cowboy Crave
MY THOUGHTS: I was lucky enough to discover this book when it was in the breathtaking box set. I really appreciate the way that Kimberly can have such a nice romance to read but she does it in a clean way! The characters are all very likeable and I really enjoyed reading Cassie and Shane's story. I was excited to learn I will get to read the others stories as well.

It was good to finally see Shane get his chance at love after watching his brothers fall in love. It is crazy that they got married so that other people wouldn’t realize that she was in witness protection. I don’t think I could have done that. Then to try to act like a married couple when they are around people yet they hardly knew it other would have been equally difficult. However I loved their story and how they were able to get to know each other and fall in love! As I’ve said before, I enjoy the way that Kimberly writes romance. It is kind of intense yet tasteful and clean. It is definitely worth the read! It shows that romance novels can be enjoyable even in a clean way and I look forward to more of her books in the future!

I read all of these books separately but now they are available in one complete set. What a great deal! I reviewed them individually quite a while ago. However, for your convenience, I have assembled all of my reviews for these here.

Reese's Cowboy Kiss:

Amazing. Fantastic author. Very few can compare. Highly recommended.

Jade's Cowboy Crush:

I love this author's style of writing. I've read a couple of her works and plan on reading many more. Her books are easy to read, they keep my attention. The stories are well thought out and I can really visualize them as I read. Very romantic, yet clean. I found her books hard to put down and often stayed up way too late into the night, not wanting to stop reading. Well worth the read! I'm going to download the next book now! Keep up the great work Kimberly Krey!

Cassie's Cowboy Crave:

(This was my favourite in the series! I can't even tell you how many times I read it!)

Fantastic! Mature, experienced writing style. A rare gem. Highly recommend anything written by this amazing author. Have never been disappointed.

All of Kimberly Krey's books are clean, ooze romance, have amazing, endearing characters, and fantastic plots. I can't say enough. She is at the top of my list of favourite authors! You can't go wrong with this set of books.

[Jo-Anne · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved these books and am so glad to see them now in a box set. The women in each of these stories goes into witness protection and are taken to ranches in Montana. But that's the only similarity in the stories.

The author has a remarkable ability to express the details of the scenes so that the reader can vividly picture the story unfold. These stories had love and dangerous scenes and some surprising characters thrown in as well. I did not want to put them book down.

I have loved this Witness Protection series. The story lines are great with the women needing to be put in WITSEC very suddenly. Going to ranches where cowboys have to protect them is the icing on the cake. I do love cowboy heroes. I also really like stories with people who are in the WITSEC program, so that aspect was very interesting to me.

I really enjoyed these romances and recommend the Sweet Montana Brides Boxed Set.

[Penny · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've finished all 3 of these books. Reese's Cowboy Kiss, Jades Cowboy Crush, & Cassie's Cowboy Crave. These stories are so well written and thought out. The charters are just so real you feel like you know them and love them. I laughed and cried and cheered with them. I did NOT spot any errors of spelling or misplaced words grammar. (pet peeve)

I'm going to be honest and tell you this is the first series of books I've ever read that were written by Kimberly Krey and..I absolutely loved it.

The thing I love the most Kimberly is that you didn't give us a half story. You carried it out and filled in all the blanks that most authors love to leave us only guessing at, at the ending. You didn't rush the ending's it make's for a most awesome story.

Thanks for the awesome reads!!!!!

Another great series by Kimberly Krey full of suspense and romance

This box set is awesome all three books in the series in one place. The suspense will grab you and keep you wondering the outcome right from the start. The romance is fun to watch as it develops and the three men in the series fight really hard to ignore the attraction to the women. I love how this family interacts and how they come together to help one another.

[Stephanie Shelley · Rating 4 out of 5]

I so enjoyed all three of these books. Kimberly Krey has a way of describing a scene that hits you right in the heart. The only problem I have with the book is the last one. I felt it needed more with the conflict that lead her to the Ranch. It just felt we were missing something. Maybe it was all three that felt something was missing. I still loved all the books that is why I gave it 4 stars.

[Nancy L. Toole · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great books

These books are perfect. They have just the right amount of romance and suspense. There are no curse words and no details about love-making! Thanks for that.

Suspense And Romance

This is third great books with a lot of romance and breathtaking suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning til the very end.

[D Essig · Rating 5 out of 5]

Good story

Liked that all were good clean stories. Liked details of the area. Funny and heart-warming. Kept my interest through every story.

[Sally Stackhouse · Rating 3 out of 5]

This boxed set is a romantic trilogy, it is nicely written and keeps the interest of the reader. Although it is slightly formulaic there is enough action and differences to carry on reading the boxed set.

Three brothers, cowboys, all have certain issues to work through while they try to protect their charges in the Witness Protection programmes. The three women find themselves the centre of attention on the ranch whilst trying to maintain their secret. The characters in the book are well developed and the plots are different.

It is lovely to read a trilogy and find out more about the people mentioned in the books.

A good, romantic read.

3*+ - slightly more than 3* but not quite 4*

[Cherye Elliott · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love having the whole series at once

I love stories like this. You know. One's with a plot. One with implied sex (I know I know). One with strong family ties.
Definitely 5 stars!!!
Re only thing that I did not like.... Right or wrong this is my personal opinion.
Book #3
“Why is it that the people closest to you live so far away?”
Why force people in a fear of suffering from PTSD? Some people do just move on......
“You had a pretty big meltdown after the guy left, Cassie. Which is normal and all. But I’m sure that’s not the end of it. Chances are you’ll be haunted by this whole thing for years to come.”

[Neena Christianson Martin · Rating 3 out of 5]

Brothers in the protection business.

Three stories, three brothers, and the three women they are tasked to protect. In a strange kind of witness protection, the brothers are unwillingly assigned to protect women in trouble. Other than a few differences and different names the stories are pretty much the same and interchangeable. They are cute books, but after the first one you can predict the rest of the books.

[Judith Seale · Rating 5 out of 5]

Three Christian Cowboy Romances

This book has three fantastic stories about witness protection. Book one is about Blake and Reese. Reese witnessed a murder where she worked.
Book two is about Gavin and Jade. Along with Jade is her four year old son.
Book three is about Shane and Cassie.
Each book has a very exciting and interesting story. All the guys are brothers and take their responsibilities very seriously. Protecting these women at all cost is what matters the most.

[Helen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good

This was a good box set and I really enjoyed it. I miss the hot, steamy love scenes, that would make this a great box set. I do like the intensity that these stories had. To think that in real life people have to go into hiding like this. That is what makes this a sad world. Thank you again for these interesting stories.

How bout them cowboys

Great read. Three different cowboys all from the same family. Finding out true love happens when you least expect it. Brave women holding their own. Can not wait to read Allie’s story.

[Sharon Hurst · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love Stories

I picked this rating because all 3 books was great. The stories well written to draw you in. It was all I could do to stop reading at night and go to sleep. I loved the characters and how they inner acted with each one.

[Anne Nelson · Rating 5 out of 5]

A good read

Three sweet clean romances with good plots, great, warm characters and some suspense thrown in. I enjoyed each in turn and look forward to finding out what else this author has in store for me.
