About this eBook

She said she'd never rely on a man again...

Never say never. When meek and mild Posey Davies calls it quits on her toxic marriage, she grabs her two-year-old daughter and runs. Her flight lands her in Grand, Montana, a community happy to take her in and even happier to nose about in her life and her unfortunate past. 

The cowboy next door, Zack McGregor, has “good time,” written all over him. He’s only home for a year to help out his older brother, who’s guardian of their sister’s children. Zack is kind, funny and oh-so-easy on the eyes. He’d be perfect, but the practical Posey predicts Zac will disappear as soon as winter sets in. 

Zack’s not as laid back and fun loving as he seems. He’s all about family and doing what’s right. When Posey’s deadbeat ex-husband begins making demands, Zack insists on playing protector. 

Posey’s never had anyone stand up for her before and soon realizes that perhaps relying on this man and trusting in love is well worth the risk.

Ratings and reviews

This is the third book in the Montana McGregor Brothers series and while I understand there are no more brothers to write about I sure hope our Author will continue the series and expand into Grand with Sheriff Dan and Andy. When you read the book you will get a wee peek at her. But this is Posey and Zack's book and what a wonderful book it is. Both of these 2 have little girls and I think that is part of the charm for me. Another thing I like about this book is that while Posey left a bad marriage, she came out as a strong women. You do not have to have read all the books but let me say, if you have you will really enjoy this series so much. The town of Grand, Montana is is warm friendly and yes they all take care of each other.

Posey and Zack’s love story in The Rancher's Proposal by Paula Altenburg, book three in the Montana McGregor Brothers series, is a wonderful story. Posey Davies left her abusive ex-husband in Boston, grabbed her two-year old daughter and runs to Grand, Montana. This community offers all the good and bad of a small town, being happy to welcome her but wanting to pry into her life; now and the past. She is ready to start over, relying on no one but herself; especially not on another man. Zack McGregor is living next door, helping out his older brother, who’s now guardian of their sister’s children. Zack is not as laid back and fun loving as he seems; as family comes first for him. Zack also has a strong belief of doing what’s right. He has fallen for Posey since she moved next door and he set eyes on her. In fact, he has shamelessly used his two-year niece to help him get to know Posey better and spend time with her. These two share off the chart chemistry but Posey struggles with trusting others, especially men after what she went through with her ex. The more time Posey and Zack spend together, the more Posey starts believing in Zack and accepting that he truly loves her as well as falling for him. When Posey’s ex-husband shows up and begins making demands, Zack insists on playing protector. No one has ever stood up for her before and Posey realizes that relying on this man and trusting in love is well worth the risk. Ms. Altenburg wrote a wonderful and sexy story that is definitely not to be missed. She provided a tale rich with sexual chemistry, amusing banter, and amazing characters giving Posey and Zack a chance for happiness, love and a future together. I highly recommend The Rancher's Proposal to other. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

The lives of the three bachelor McGregor’s brothers changed drastically when their parents , sister and brother in law are killed in a plane accident. Three young children are left orphan. The brothers drop everything in order to take care of them. While struggling with the ranch and being parents, Luke and Jake have already found a significant other. This time , the story belongs to Zach McGregor, the youngest of the brothers and the “fun” uncle. When a woman with her young child moves next door, he’s enchanted by her. Posey, recently divorced, has been hurt deeply, and trust is something that she doesn’t give lightly, especially to a man. It was sweet watching how Zach was determined to help her , while still encouraging Posey to find herself . The story is at times heartbreaking , at other times heartwarming. It’s also a story about family, children dealing with the loss of their parents , domestic abuse and trust. Will Zach be able to show Posey that she can trust and love someone , without losing her identity or will fear keep her from finding her HEA? A sweet addition to this series. I was entrusted a copy of this book by Tule Publishing. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
