I've wondered what authors would say if and when they review their own books. I certainly couldn't imagine giving myself five stars because 1) I'm just not that good and 2) I rarely give five stars because the book has to really made a difference in my life - I just write for entertainment. I can't give myself three stars or less because I'm just not the self-deprecating, so four stars it is. As far as a review goes, this is my first book and I've learned a lot about what not to do and what to d...more
The novel begins quite a few years before our hero and heroine meet. In the first two chapters we are introduced to Brenna Cameron and Ethan Gallagher. Brenna lives in the Scotland countryside with her mother and father, and Ethan lives on his family’s ranch in Montana. After the loss of both of her parents, Brenna travels from Scotland to Montana in search of the only living relative she knows of. When she arrives in the unfamiliar territory, she is saved by Ethan Gallagher when a disgusting, d...more

So I literally just finished this book and I'm feeling rather confused. I read this book on my ipad and there were no pages numbers - it only showed the percentage read - which turned out to include an additional 25% of other stuff at the end of the book. So when I came to the end of the book, I actually had thought I still had 25% of it left. This may have had something to do with how I felt when I realized that I was at the end, which was kind of as if I had run into a brick wall, it wa...more

Ethan Gallagher is a 6’4” cowboy with striking blue eyes and dark hair that curls around his ears. Swoon worthy? Yup. He’s a cowboy who is the defender of women’s honor and not afraid to slam someone in the mouth with his fist for impugning said honor. Sigh worthy? Totally. He’s also a cowboy who is willing to put his life on the line for the woman he loves. Did I mention he’s a cowboy?

I enjoyed Gallagher's Pride. It's western romance with secrets, mystery and revenge set in Montana in the 1870's. The author's descriptions of the Scottish countryside and of Hawk's Peak, Montana draw the reader into the story immediately. Brenna Cameron travels from Scotland to Montana in search of her Grandfather. Ethan Gallagher rescues Brenna shortly after her arrival in Briarwood and becomes her self appointed protector. Brenna quickly learns that the is no love lost between the Gallaghers...more
M.K McClintock is superbly talented. From the start of Gallagher’s Pride, I was taken to another time and place. I loved every word of this book! McClintock does a masterful job of sucking the reader in, making them hang in there and keep turning those pages. I could not put this book down. It is a riveting book, from beginning to the end. The book is filled with adventure and big surprises. It's a very enjoyable book to read, that anyone who likes historical romance or westerns will love it. It...more

I have a wonderful time reading this book. Sure, I was little disappointed that there weren't many detail about Brenna's grandfather or she finding her twin brother. I really Brenna and Ethan because they remind of other character that I have read in other novel who have difficult time to see their love for one another. I am also relief that there are some romance that weren't explicit in their intercourse. I really hope to read the second book about Gabriel Gallagher and if there is a third one...more
I read this book in one night and thought it was very enjoyable. I was drawn into the story immediately and found it to be very detailed, but not too much to make it annoying. I could picture the setting of each location perfectly in my mind.
Brenna was such a likable character. I felt so bad for all the sorrow she had gone through and wanted to see things turn around for her. Ethan on the other hand I didn't like much at the beginning and at the end of the story I liked him even less. However, I...more

I really liked this book. It was easy to read and had alot of adventure in it. I am not sure what the blank pages inbetween chapters were for. I can't wait for the next book to come out and answer the questions on where did Ethan's sister go? Maybe to get the long lost brother Brenna was looking for? and what of Gabriel's new lady, wife? So many questions. This was a good first book in the series.Leaves a reader wanting more, alot more...Good read.
Gallaghers Pride is an entertaining story, with likeable characters and a writing style that read with ease. I thought some parts were a little long winded, but it did not keep you from reading on. I also found that the ending was a little rushed, making me go for four stars instead of five. Overall M.K. McClintock penned a very enjoyable story that any historical fan would like to read.
I liked this book form the first page. Two of my favorite places in the world. The Scottish Highlands and Montana/Wyoming.
While this book certainly had predictable story componants, it was a sweet, fun and well written book. I am looking forward to reading this author again and will want to get the rest of the family's stories as well.

I loved this book, partly because it involved two of my favorite places: Scotland and the American West. MK McClintock has created a family saga sure to captivate any reader. I am looking forward to the rest of the series!
Gallagher's Pride was a good story but the writing was horrible! I considered giving up but curiosity got the best of me and I pushed through but this is definitely the last thing I will read my this author.
This was an enjoyable historical romance. It followed the romance "formula" with several interesting twists. I enjoyed the historical portion and the characterization was good even though the actions and attitude of the hero was fairly predictable. I would probably give it a 3-1/2 stars.
I received this book by winning it through a goodreads giveaways. At first I wasn't sure I was going to like it but around page 60 i started to really enjoy the characters. I would've liked the book to be longer :)
Read on my Fire and enjoyed. Would like to read the next in the series, but it costs money, so will have to think about it. Story takes place in Scotland and Montana.
This book was okay. The two main characters were soooo stubborn that I eventually got frustrated though. I don't know really. I feel like they wasted so much time.
Good historical western with clean romance. Easy read with a nice story about a 19th century ranching family in Montana. Appropriate for all readers.
I liked the settings and times of this book.
I enjoyed Brenna's stubborn pride. Ethan has trust issues. Together, they can be frustrating. It keeps them from each other. Things happen to both of them and you would think they would get over their issues when they get glimpses of each others hearts. But, no they just don't get it! That was both frustrating and cute to me!
