Desciption
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts surpasses herself once again, with a novel as sweeping and extraordinary as the Montana sky itself…When Jack Mercy died, he left behind a ranch worth nearly twenty million dollars. Now his three daughters—each born of a different mother, and each unknown by the others—are gathered to hear the reading of the will. But the women are shocked to learn that before any of them can inherit, they must live together on the ranch for one year. For Tess, a screenwriter who just wants to collect her cash and get back to Hollywood, it’s a nightmare. For Lily, on the run from her abusive ex-husband, it’s a refuge. And for Willa—who grew up on the ranch—it’s an intrusion into her rightful home.They are sisters…and strangers. Now they face a challenge: to put their bitterness aside and live like a family. To protect each other from danger—and unite against a brutal enemy who threatens to destroy them all…
Review
I read it all the way through, but I hated it. There were so many ridiculous factual inaccuracies that I could write a novel on this novel! How incredibly annoying to someone who actually lives this life that she would butcher/romanticize it to this extent! Booo! Boooo!Most notably:In the very beginning, the main character's love interest hears a shot and goes running to find the main character butchering a bear she just shot. Apparently, she shot it because it was attacking her. First of all, you can't just kill things outside of legal hunting seasons. Secondly, she was riding a horse, and there has never been a bear attack of someone riding a horse in Montana. Horses aren't stupid, they'll just run away. Lastly, if you do kill a bear because it's attacking you, as unlikely as that is, at VERY least you have to report it!And MOST ANNOYING INNACCURACY I HAVE EVER READ:At one point, Sister is flirting with Love Interest over the round pen fence as he "puts a yearling through it's paces." Scene ends with Sister climbing up behind Love Interest, and galloping around bareback... on a YEARLING!!! I'm not even going to explain it further. If you don't know horses, don't write books about them! And for those of you readers that don't know horses: a yearling is the equivalent of a 6-year-old child, small, undeveloped, and much too young to be doing geometry (or galloping around with TWO people on its back!).
