Dylan is still on the rodeo circuit and also working as a stunt man when he receives calls from his older brother Logan talking nonsense about rebuilding on the old homestead and putting up fences on his property. But it’s when a one-night stand can’t take being a mother any longer and leaves his two-year-old daughter Bonnie in his truck one night that he even seriously thinks about going home. Once he gets there and sees what Logan has in mind and finds out that his lost love is still unmarri

Abandoned by the brothers, the Creed ranch had been unkempt for years. Logan, Dylan and Tyler had found success in others areas. Their father’s death, funeral, and the ensuing fight were memories no one wanted to revisit.
Life events have a way of changing your perspective. Dylan, a rodeo circuit champion, now turned gambler was prepared, or so he thought. Leaving the poker game with large winnings was dangerous, especially at late hours. Exiting the back door, he knew something was a More...

Again, I'm not CRAZY about how long L.L.M.'s books are! I can get through a L.I. or a Kristan Higgins in 2-3 days, where it takes about a week? for an L.L.M book!!!
I absolutely LOVED Dylan and Kristy though!!! Kristy was relatable. And I felt their chemistry....Dylan's little 2yr old Bonnie was a DOLL!!! I can see her with her dark blonde curls, just like her Daddy, Dylan! She cracked me up with her constant yelling of her only 2 words...POOP! And Daddy!!! LOL!!! Loved ALL the animal More...

Montana Creeds: Dylan by Linda Lael Miller is the second book in her Montana Creeds contemporary western romance series.
After his daughter Bonnie's mother abandons her in his truck, Dylan Creed heads home to the family ranch in Montana. Dylan is determined to keep custody of Bonnie and to do that he needs his older brother (and lawyer) Logan's help, although he and Logan aren't on the best of terms right now.

his is the second book in the series. I really have fell in love with these brothers and cant wait to read the 3rd and last book in the series. Although I have to admit I liked / connected with the 1st books characters alot more. Just felt like in this book was all about having kids, and those who don't want kids are considered bad, stuck up, self centered people. That Kinda rubbed me the wrong way. But I know people have their opinions on the subject, just don't feel like that should be one of

Hailed as “rodeo’s bad boy” for his talent at taming bulls and women, Dylan Creed likes life in the fast lane. But when the daughter he rarely sees is abandoned by her mother, Dylan heads home to Stillwater Springs ranch. Somehow the champion bull rider has to turn into a champion father—and fast.

New Reading Plan: read all Romances with Librarians as the love interest. If you know of any, send the recommendations my way (no, they don't have to actually be GOOD).
Review: Things I really liked about this Romance: minimal stupid, cutesy banter and minimal tension/misunderstandings keeping the two apart, also minimal digression into side characters lives or random plot twists (though there certainly was some of that).
Things I didn't like: way more Montana than library, sparse on t More...

The first book in the series, Logan is better. That's not to say this wasn't a good book, but it was creepier. In this one, <spoiler>you had had to deal with two different main characters being shot at, dead bodies being unearthed, etc.</spoiler>. I'll continue to the last of the trilogy, Tyler just so I can see what everyone is up to, although it's already painfully obvious before I even start the book who he's going to fall for, and I havn't even started it yet.

I jumped right into this book after finishing the first book in the series. And then I spent most of my free time yesterday reading because this book was just as good - maybe even a little better - than the first book.
Montana Creeds: Dylan is the second book in the Montana Creeds series about the 3 Creed brothers (distant cousins of the McKettricks) who have been estranged for years. I wouldn't recommend reading this book as a standalone or the series out of order. The books are p More...

Another great read from LLM. When Dylan Creed finds his 2 y/o daughter, Bonnie, abandon in his truck one night, he knows it's time to take action. He has to gain custody before her crazy mother puts her in harms way again. The only way to do that is to take her to the place he's spent most of his adult life trying to forget. With his truck loaded down with newly purchased baby stuff he heads home to Stillwater Springs where he goes in search of old flame Kristy Madison. It doesn't take long for

Although I still love the Montana setting, the pace of this one is a bit off. Too much happens too fast. There is no building up to things, so the reader can be fully involved by the resolution. On the other hand, Bonnie is a typical two-year-old, tantrums, frenetic activity, and all, so kudos to Ms. Miller there. I do like that the two Creeds so far have been filthy rich. In this day and age, I am tired of worrying about money so it's nice to read about people with no worries -- or soon-to

I'm sure this was a fine book. I skimmed it because I just don't like books where the hero and heroine are old lovers who broke up and then meet again years later. Sometimes I can read them if I'm in the right mood or if they are just phenomenal. This one he didn't really seem to love her so I just couldn't get into it. It also bothered me that she didn't have kids but wanted them and he had one with a floozie. I guess I felt too sorry for her.

The narration was okay even though you couldn't tell the men from the women at times. The story had a few holes big enough to run cattle through. The heroine wasn't a complete doormat and the hero wasn't a complete jerk. It was okay. Know what a mean? I wasn't blown away and probably won't read it again or any of the rest of the series, but it was a free read from my local public library; so, it is all...okay.

good read--LLM has a way with stories about brothers and families. Dylan has a two year old daughter, Bonnie, that his exwife abandoned and is on his way back to his home town to reconnect with Kristy, the girl he left behind to go rodeoing. He is done with his rodeo traveling ways and ready to settle down and raise his daughter. Great story with a lot of depth--enjoyed it.

Dylan the shorter thinner cowboy. He is the gambler but seems to come back to the ranch when Logan teases him into it. He mets up with an old sweetheart that tries to sell his land and I enjoy how honest she is with him about ir or maybe he just catches on, eitherway the connection between them worked. The gambling was played up just a little much for me.

This is totally on my top 5 favorite books of all time. It had everything Logan's book had and than some. Read Logan's book first since it comes first and you will be foaming at the mouth to get your hands on Dylan's book. Linda Lael Miller brings it all in this book. Mystery, Romance, Passion, and more of the CREED BROTHERS!!
What more could a girl ask for??!!

This is the second "Creed Brothers" book I have read (and for some reason I'm accidentally reading them in reverse order, but it really doesn't matter). I like this one a lot better than "Tyler" as Dylan and Kristy are better, more fully fleshed-out characters than Tyler and Lily. This book also had a decent plot, which was in its favor.

It's a rainy day, not to serious, read. The suspense part never even made me curious. The romance was fluffy and moved along. The "I don't know if I love you" was just stupid IMO for the nature of the story-line and how it flowed. Would have scored more points if they just admitted it from the beginning.
It was cute and fluffy.

I was expected a good story and if you extract the way it was written the bare bones of a story is there. I found some of the events did not gel. The story was not jerky, it was too well edited but there were points where the author simply tells you this happened then that without a sequence of events. At least that was my opinion.

Well, this book wasn't nearly as good as the first book in the series, but it was still pretty good. There seemed to be a lot more risque parts that I kinda skipped over, than the first book had, and the plot seemed less developed. However, all the loose ends got tied up at the end, and it was a happy ending. Not bad for a quick "fluff read."

I enjoyed Kristy a lot more than I did Briana in the previous book, but sadly, I think that Dylan wasn't as interesting as Logan. Dylan and Kristy, as a couple, worked better for me, probably because of their past and the connection that was already established.
I might have contemplated 4 stars had the subplots been better fleshed out. Or at least as solid as the relationship. As it is, 3 stars.

I really enjoyed this one. Im a sucker for a single father. And the Creed men are GERGOUS! My only issue with this book is some of the plot seemed really odd and out of place. All loose ends were tied in the end but I just thought certain parts of the story was just fodder and something else should have happened.

The middle brother of the wild Creed family, Dylan is known for his bull-riding and womanizing. After a game of high stakes poker at a seedy club, Dylan discovers his young daughter abandoned in the cab of his truck by her mother. He knows that Bonnie deserves a better life and stability, so he heads back home to Stillwater Springs, Montana. As word spreads that Dylan is back in town and with a little girl no less, Kristy Madison, the town librarian, tries to keep her cool. Dylan and Kristy

This book was considerably more sappy than the first in the series (Montana Creeds: Logan) - several instances of "her soul touched his when their eyes met". I'm all for traditional elements of a romance book, but I found myself rolling my eyes quite a bit while listening to this one. Probably won't move on to the third book in the trilogy, even.

I am somewhat disappointed in these Creed brothers stories. They could be made so much more interesting, but these books are too much of a light read for me. I like the promise of their stories, but not how they come out on paper. I have read so much better stuff by L.L. Miller.

Second in Miller's Montana Creed series, about three brothers who have been estranged for years. These are really contemporary westerns. Though basically romances, each book has a mystery to be solved. A good, quick read.

3 and 1/2 stars! This was my first book by Linda Lael Miller and I will read more in the future. Romance, sex, small town, hot cowboy, pretty girl, crazy ex and a mystery too! Light, easy read and enjoyable.
