Review by Sukey Howard
Nora Roberts's current bestseller, Montana Sky, is quintessential summer listening, a big, romantic novel set in big sky country, read in its 15-hour entirety by Erika Leigh. Jack Mercy, an unmitigated S.O.B. by everyone's account, won't leave his multimillion-dollar ranch to the daughter who was brought up on it and is capable of running it. Instead it is decreed that his three girls, who have never met and have different mothers, must spend a year together on the ranch in order to inherit it. And what a year it turns out be for Tess, the tough-talking Hollywood hotshot screenwriter who shudders at the thought of being so far from Rodeo Drive; Lily, the shy middle daughter who is running from an abusive, obsessive ex-husband; and Willa, determined to prove that she can run the ranch as well or better than her unloving father. These three, the men they come to love, and the conflicts and perils that challenge and change them will stay with you long after last cassette is over and make you wish there was more.
