This book was AMAZING! I had high expectations since I (usually) enjoy Christine Feehan's writing, and the book description hinted at an abusive past for the hero. Often when I go into a book with high expectations, I'm disappointed, but this book exceeded my wildest dreams. It's honestly one of the best books I've read in a few years.

Let me start by reviewing "Rocky Mountain Miracle" by Christine Feehan. If it were possible to give 10 stars out of five, I would. If you enjoy reading hurt/comfort stories, this is the book for you. If you like reading about hurt (physically and emotionally) heroes finally finding and accepting love, this book is a must read. If you like dark bad boys that are secretly angsty with a low self-esteem, then you simply have to read this story.

I adore hurt/comfort stories that feature an abused man finally finding love, so this book was a treasure for me. The author doesn't shy away from showing that the hero is hurting, either. Nothing is graphically described, but there's nightmares, there's marks from the past. And it's not a few paragraphs mentioning this theme buried in a long novel. The story starts out with the brothers dealing with their past abuse right away on page one.

The absolute best thing about "Rocky Mountain Miracle" is that you get two boys in one story here. Cole is the older brother (probably in his mid-late thirties, I'd guess). He can be hot and sexy, the dark bad boy. The strong one that won't talk, but is secretly all mushy on the inside. And the sex scenes with him are hot. But then you also get as a bonus his little brother, Jace. Jace is sweet and fragile and emotional. The little cutie you just want to cuddle and love. Because of the set-up, you get both types of abused boys in one story. And you also get protective, brotherly love. SCORE!

The other amazing and refreshing thing in both of these stories is that the female characters are STRONG, good people. People I'd like to be friends with. They actually aren't annoying in any way, which is so rare in romance novels. In both stories, the girls have a special power. They're brave. They're not whiny, and they're not push-overs.

So "Rocky Mountain Miracle" gets a perfect score from me. I only wish that there were more stories in this series to read, because I could read a scenario like this over and over again.

I wasn't sure if I was even going to read the second story in the book, but figured since I'd paid for it, I might as well try it too. I was surprised to find I really enjoyed it as well. The author's writing style is very relaxed and easy to read. "Harry's Law" features a world of werewolves and other werecreatures. The hero was quite likable. The lead female was also strong, confident, and a good, nice person. Perhaps it helps that both lead females in these stories have a special connection to animals, and I am definitely an animal person. Anyway, it was a fun story. Apparently it fits into a series, and the story was enough to intrigue me about the series. It has vampires and werecreatures? I'm wondering if it's a bit like the Sookie Stackhouse novels in the world created, with vampires and were-creatures. The were-creatures seemed a lot like that to me, anyway. The story worked just fine as a stand alone and did not require any knowledge of the universe, but it intrigued me enough to add the series to my wish list.

If you're even considering reading this book, do it! You will not be disappointed! I loved it!!!
