On Ronan Thatcher’s first week in Montana, he spots the most beautiful woman in the world. Love at first sight? Nah. He doesn’t believe in love. But he wouldn’t mind a date or two with the local beauty. Ronan is the type of man who gets what he wants, and he wants Larke Hale.

Except Calamity’s sweetheart has sworn off men. The last time Ronan was rejected was, well . . . never. Yet Larke dismisses him without even batting those pretty brown eyes.

Bruised ego in check, he’s about to walk away when a teenager marches into his office and asks to hire Ronan as her lawyer. Something about a bad grade and a ruined grade point average that will inevitably destroy her future. He’s about to lecture the kid for being melodramatic until he learns that the teacher she wants to sue is Larke.

Suddenly this frivolous lawsuit seems like a bright idea. Ronan wants Larke’s attention and this is guaranteed to snag it. So let the brawl begin.

The Brawl by Devney Perry who writes as Willa Nash on KU is such an EPIC story and one that has me looking at a $20 bill differently.

Larke (sister of Kerrigan from The Brazen) finds herself squaring off with new-to-town lawyer Ronan Thatcher.  The why, the lawsuit filed, well it tells so much about how Ronan is that it makes me wish men like this were real.

Larke is a single mom to an adorable little girl named, Wren… the only thing I will say here is WOW just wow around the use of the single mom angle, Wren as a character and how this all plays into small town living <read the book>

Nash paints a complete picture of this small town, allowing the readers to feel like they have stepped into Calamity Montana

I adored both characters’ backstories, they were masterfully woven into the story and really allow the reader to understand Ronan and Larke.

The twist at the end was so amazing and really spoke with the depth of emotion Ronan has some to feel for

The happiness Ronan and Larke craft is so perfect for them!

I adore the Calamity Montana series and I am so excited for Wilder Abbott next in The Brood.

You do not need to read the series to LOVE this book!
