Mackenzie's Mountain

Mary Elizabeth Potter is a self-appointed spinster with no illusions about love. When she meets Wolf Mackenzie, a man with a chip on his shoulder the size of Wyoming, she sets out to convince the whole town he's a man worth loving. But Wolf's not sure he's for the taming of Wolf Mackenzie.

Night Wing—the revolutionary test plane with a top secret weapons system—is Colonel Joe "Breed" Mackenzie's number one priority—and weapons expert Caroline Evans his number one distraction. When someone on the inside sabotages Night Wing, Caroline's late hours and expertise come under suspicion, forcing Joe to choose between allegiance to his country…and love for his prime suspect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Steele, October 31, 2005

I am a long time lover of a good romance books. Danielle Steele being my favorite. Linda Howard has blown Steele out of the water. I had never heard of Linda Howard but picked this book up on a whim. It sounded good so I thought I would give it a try. I finished the whole thing (both Mountain and Misson) in two days flat. I then went in search of the rest of the Mackenzie stories and found Mackenzies Honor which has Mackenzies Pleasure and A Game of Chance. I have loved all four books but I am a bit disapointed that I could not find the story of Maris (Mackenzies Magic). I know that it was not a full length book and it is out of print. The other four were out of print too so it seems like they could have included Magic in one of the compiled bookes. I have a hunger to know about Maris and I hope it is re-released soon.

Anyhow, I have since read more than 10 more of Linda Howard's books and have liked them all but none compare to the Mackenzies. I completely fell in love. I am working my way through all of her books and have not been disapointed yet. Howard delivers a wonderful story in each of her books. She is the best author I have come across yet.

I just started reading Linda Howard novels this year and I read the last of the series about the Mackenzie family first and then had to try and find the first of the series. Fortunately Mira decided to republish these in double books. I enjoyed reading the whole series. Each book is able to stand alone even if you never read the other three books. It was a very enjoyable read, fast paced and interesting. Wolf, Mary and Joe are all very finely drawn believeable characters. The story line was kept me interested and did not seem to be a formula. Linda Howard's writing style is fast paced and I can easily read one of her books in a day. Her comtempory romances are especially good. Hope Linda Howard keeps on writing for a long time to come.

Both of these stories are great. I thought Wolfs story more intence then Joe's was but I think that come from the difference in the plots of the two stories.
I loved all the characters and was very satisfied with Joes story.
Great books and that they come under one cover is a steal. I am waiting for the rest of the Mackenzies, love Linda Howard.
