ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 29 ,2024

Over the years, Joshua has watched most of his family fall in love. He and his cousin Nate are the last single Shaws standing, and while Nate’s seemingly content to stay that way, Josh wants the kind of love his sister, parents, and grandparents have found. In the meantime, he’s alone. And lonely. Particularly since, until that special someone comes along, Josh believes certain…ahem…intimacies are worth waiting for.

Sophia Montgomery is still reeling from the unexpected passing of her beloved father when, in her grief, she texts his old phone number—and gets a reply. The person on the other end, Josh Shaw, is sympathetic, funny, and kind…everything Sophia needs right now. And when her grieving mother suddenly focuses on Sophia’s dating life, it’s not long before Josh goes from text friend to fake boyfriend to get her mom off her back.

But the first time Josh and Sophia meet in person? Well…there’s nothing fake about their instant attraction.
Giddy with newfound feelings, the young couple isn’t prepared for the bombs about to go off in their lives—including revelations about Sophia’s father and a Shaw family tragedy that rocks Josh’s entire world.

No one ever said life would be perfect. But if Josh and Sophia rely on each other to get through their biggest challenges so far as a couple, their love could prove more than perfect enough.

•••••

REVIEW: PERFECT ENOUGH is the eighth instalment in Kelly Elliott’s contemporary adult, LOVE IN MONTANA erotic, romance series, a spin off from the author’s Meet Me in Montana series. This is twenty-two year old firefighter/ rancher Joshua Shaw, and dance instructor Sophia Montgomery’s story line. PERFECT ENOUGH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary but for back story and cohesion I recommend reading the series in order.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Josh and Sophia ) PERFECT ENOUGH follows the building romance and relationship between firefighter / rancher Joshua Shaw, and dance instructor Sophia Montgomery. Months earlier, Sophia’s father died, leaving a grieving young woman who wanted to know why. Almost daily, Sophia would text her father’s cell number, just to talk about her struggles and pain.Joshua Shaw works part time as a firefighter but having lost his phone, the captain set him up with a new phone and new number, a number that would bring our story line couple together. Texting and talking as ‘friends’ would quickly build into something more when Sophia needed a plus one for her cousin’s wedding, agreeing to a fake relationship with our story line hero. As the line between real and fake begins to blur, tragedy strikes the Shaw family, and Sophia discovers the truth about her father’s death, ultimately finding herself on the receiving end of Joshua’s pain and grief.

The world building follows several paths including Sophia’s career turns, her mother’s need to more forward; Josh’s life as a firefighter vs his life on the ranch, and the loss of a beloved family member Who has left a lifelong impression on our story line hero.

The relationship between Josh and Sophia begins with a text meant for someone else. Sophia struggles in the wake of her father’s death, needing someone to talk to as her own grief continues to spiral. Josh has watched from the sidelines as his siblings and cousins found their own happily ever afters, while he and his cousin Nate never thought they would find the one. As the relationship between Sophia and Josh grows into something more, heartbreak and pain push Sophia to the side as Josh battles the demons in his head. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate.

Once again,there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters most of whom we have met in the previous story lines and original series, and at every Shaw Family game night. We are reintroduced to Josh cousin’s Nate, and the bane of his existence Haven Larson.

PERFECT ENOUGH is a story of loss and grief, struggle and heart break, family and relationships, forgiveness and love. The character driven premise is emotional and captivating ; the romance is seductive and impassioned; the characters are charismatic and charming.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 6, 2024

Finally returning home after years in Paris, ex-model Avery Littlewood never imagined a rerouted flight plan would land her on destiny’s runway. She’s seated next to a gorgeous stranger…and as he shares his story, it’s not long before she discovers why his arresting blue eyes look so familiar. There are several reasons why Beck should be off limits—he lives in Texas; he needs a friend, not a relationship; he’s practically family—but none of that overshadows Avery’s instant attraction for the man the moment she stepped foot on that plane.

Months after his mother’s death, old love letters have given Beck Dahlstrom the courage to seek out the Shaws, the family of the long-deceased father he never knew. He can’t believe his luck when the most gorgeous creature he’s ever seen sits beside him on the plane. When he discovers she’s not only heading to the same small Montana town, but she’s close to his father’s family, it’s more like fate. There are several reasons why Avery should be off limits—she’s considerably younger; they’re from different worlds; her father might kill him just for looking at her—but every glimpse into her stunning turquoise eyes just makes him fall deeper.

Montana, the Shaw family, Avery…all of them soon have Beck enchanted enough to consider big changes. But his life in Dallas also has considerable pull, including a person…or two…unwilling to give up Beck so easily.

•••••

REVIEW: ENCHANTED ENOUGH is the seventh instalment in Kelly Elliott’s contemporary, adult LOVE IN MONTANA erotic, romance series-a spin off from the author’s Meet Me in Montana series. This is eighteen year old, former model Avery Littlewood, and twenty-seven year old, rancher/businessman Beck Dahlstrom’s story line. ENCHANTED ENOUGH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary..

Told from dual first person perspectives (Avery and Beck) ENCHANTED ENOUGH follows the building romance and relationship between our story line couple. One year earlier, Beck Dahlstrom’s mother died from cancer, and Beck is on the hunt for his father’s family, a man he never knew but Beck never expected to find his future in the guise of former model Avery Littlewood who knew something about the family of which Beck was looking. Finding more relatives than he could have ever imagined, Beck reconsidered a future in Montana but his grandfather back in Texas had given Beck an ultimatum, come home or else. Beck never expected to fall in love, and leaving Avery in Montana, threatened any future happiness for our story line couple. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Beck and Avery, and the potential fall-out as choices, decisions and changes forces Beck to see the bigger picture, and a possible future without the woman he loves.

The relationship between Avery and Beck is one of instant attraction but Beck is unaware of Avery’s connections to the family he never knew. Avery is determined to take their friendship to the next level but Beck struggles with the age difference, and a possible end date when he has to travel back home. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is another large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic, fun and familiar characters most of whom we have me in the previous story lines and original Meet Me in Montana Series.We are re-introduced to Avery’s parents Dirk and Merit Littlewood, her brother Bradly and his girlfriend Mackenzie Reeves (FOREVER ENOUGH 6)

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 28, 2024

Not long out of college, Mackenzie Reeves has found herself halfway across the country, relocated from Atlanta, Georgia, to small-town Hamilton, Montana. But it’s not just a fresh start—it’s an escape. For years, she’s been trying to steer clear of the abusive stepfather who’s made her life hell and turned her mother into someone she doesn’t recognize. Now, on Dirk and Merit Littlewood’s gorgeous farm, she’s found a bit of peace. Until a certain dimpled, dark-eyed handsome devil walks into her barn and changes her life with a single look.

Not quite twenty-four, and champion bull rider Bradly Littlewood already feels twice his age. He loves the sport, but between the politics, the lonely nights, missing his family…his heart and head are no longer in the game. And when he’s home for the holidays, surrounded by cousins who’ve married and started their own families, he can add jealousy to the mix. He’s missed so much, and he wants what they have. Turns out, one unplanned stop at the family barn and he may have found it…in the form of a pajama-clad angel, singing and dancing for a captive audience of farm animals.

Mackenzie and Bradly’s instant smolder in the barn becomes a blazing wildfire within days, surprising everyone. Both their futures are uncertain for very different reasons. But their love? That’s rock solid. Beyond a doubt.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 6,2024

Even though they’d never dated, Lily Shaw always just assumed she’d eventually end up with Ben, the boy who’s been her bestie since they were toddlers. So she’s understandably shocked to learn he’s getting married—and having a child with his fiancée. Shocked…but not terribly upset. The truth is, she’s been feeling butterflies every time she’s near a particular horse trainer on her parents’ ranch. Unfortunately, though attracted to Lily, Maverick’s decided he has nothing to offer her beyond a good time.

The Shaws are all about family, something Maverick Prescott admires. But despite his boss treating him like another son, and Maverick wanting the man’s daughter in the worst way, how can he start something he doesn’t think he can finish? He has nothing to offer Lily, not even his own heritage. Just a past filled with so much pain, he decided a long time ago he’s best off spending his life alone, tending to the rescue horses who are just as damaged as Maverick.

Lily, however, is a typical Shaw—stubborn as the day is long. Getting into Maverick’s bed is the easy part; getting into his heart is the real challenge. But maybe if he feels loved enough, he’ll be willing to give them a chance.

•••••

Several days together would turn into something more but something of which Maverick struggles to accept. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between our Maverick and Lily, as Maverick continues to believe he is not worthy of Lily’s love.

Starting with a home in Montana—and hiring Rose to design it.

Now he just has to convince her that not all men, including MLB superstars, are players…if she’s daring enough to take the risk.

•••••••

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 29, 2023

Hunter Shaw is handsome, charming, and a minor celeb on the collegiate team roping circuit. Not to mention, he looks damn fine in a cowboy hat. So it’s no surprise when he’s ardently pursued to be the star on a new streaming network’s debut program—a reality dating show. The money on offer would do wonders for his family’s charity, but it’s only after catching a glimpse of the show’s host that he’s all-in. The former Ms. Montana catches his eye and his interest…inconvenient, to say the least, when he’s about to date twenty women on national television.

Kipton Howse also desperately needs the money from hosting Swipe Right, but for different reasons. With barely a glance at the contract, she signs on for the two-month shoot. She’ll do her job, collect her payment, then put Shaw Ranch in her rearview. Of course, she didn’t count on loving the place so much…or the entire Shaw family…or Hunter himself. From the moment they meet, sparks fly, and they only get hotter as the show continues, despite a houseful of women vying for his attention.

Sexual tension is at an all-time high when things take a dramatic turn, both on and off the cameras, thanks to the show’s rabid fans—who vote to shake things up in a way no one saw coming. It’s safe to say Kipton and Hunter’s sizzling attraction is no longer a secret. But at least one contestant isn’t ready to admit defeat.

After all…what’s reality TV without a bit of drama?

••••

REVIEW:BRAVE ENOUGH is the third instalment in Kelly Elliott’s contemporary, new adult LOVE IN MONTANA romance series-a spin off from the author’s MEET ME IN MONTANA series. This is twenty-two year old, college students, roper/rancher Hunter Shaw, and Kipton Howse’s story line. BRAVE ENOUGH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Hunter and Kipton) BRAVE ENOUGH follows the building but forbidden relationship between Kipton and Hunter. Hunter Shaw is a minor celebrity on the rodeo circuit and has been approached to star in a ‘Bacheloresque’ style reality show called ‘Swipe Right’, wherein Hunter would swipe left or right after a series of dates with twenty desperate but beautiful women. Hoping to donate the money to his father’s charity, Hunter agrees to the show but continues to struggle with unreality of reality tv. Meanwhile, former Miss Montana Kipton Howse has been hired to be the official host of ‘Swipe Right’, a host who is about to attract the attention of our story line hero. Weeks before the studio commences the show, Hunter will be introduced to Kipton Howse, and the sparks will fly between our story line couple. As the show and contestants begin to spiral out of control, someone new and familiar is thrown into the mix. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Kipton and Hunter, and the potential fall-out as everything becomes too much, too soon and too real.

The world building continues to focus on the tight-knit Shaw family: the relationship dynamics, the love, the friendships and the source of support for our story line couple. Everyone, including the production staff, recognize there is a definite spark between Hunter and Kipton, a spark that does not go unnoticed by everyone concerned.

The relationship between Kipton and Hunter begins as working acquaintances to friends to lovers but both have signed contracts and agreed to follow the rules of the show. With Hunter’s parents and family aware of the couple’s mutual attraction, a secret rendezvous is set into motion to push our couple together. The $ex scenes are passionate and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a very large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic, interesting and familiar secondary and supporting characters including both Kipton and Hunter’s extended families; the crew and cast of ‘Swipe Right’, and the introduced of twenty female contestants..each of whom garnered an appearance throughout the story.

BRAVE ENOUGH is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love; support and comfort, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is amusing, inviting and realistic; the characters are sassy, sexy and sensitive; the romance is spicy and emotional.
