Summary: Morgan is Magnificent!
Review: Having just this second finished MORGAN, I hurried to write this review. Lori Foster is a romance writer who understands men and writes them so well as characters that they seem almost like someone you know. MORGAN is a more character driven story than SAWYER was, understandable as SAWYER was the introduction to the cast of characters. The prologue paints a wonderful word picture for us of who this man is inside, without his armor. "It was one of those sweltering hot weekend mornings when a man had nothing better to do than sit outside in his jeans, feel himself sweat and wait for a breeze that wouldn't come." Quickly we learn that Morgan (who we met in SAWYER) is kind of a sleeping beauty, waiting to be woken with a kiss. He is massive, handsome, protective, and honorable but he knows what he needs and just hasn't found it yet. Reading this book, we find Foster has taken more time to help us get to know this family and by the end of it, we wish we knew them personally. Not only is this story a romance, it reminds us of how wonderful it is to be part of a family. It promotes both love and family values to the max. Morgan is just what Misty needs, a man who loves her without reservation for the fact that she comes with the baggage of problems. He recognizes her for the treasure she is and works to make her realize that he wants to build a life with her. He does it beautifully, respectful of her needs, and in the process enchants us all. I can't wait for the next one. This book goes in with my keepers!

Summary: 2nd book of the 'Buckhorn Brothers' series...excellent!
Review: I had a wonderful time reading this book. Morgan caught my attention in the 1st book of this series, SAWYER. He's a large, muscle-bound, bad-tempered giant with a marshmallow center. His sister-in-law's sister, Misty Malone, comes to Buckhorn for a visit. She has just lost her job and is currently homeless, among other problems. Morgan and Misty are immedietely attracted to each other. But when Misty introduces herself, Morgan decides he cannot get involved with her sexually because she is family. Misty has sworn off men after her experiences with her ex-fiance and father. Morgan wants her to leave town immediately and stop flirting with his brothers, but once he learns about her problems he has a change of heart. Morgan and Misty's story is fun, funny, sexy, and touching. The secondary characters are Morgan's fabulous, gorgeous, sexy brothers. I like the family feel to this book and can't wait for Gabe's story next month.

Summary: GABE HE WILL NEVER BE!!!!!!
Review: Morgan does not even come close to his brother Gabe! Now there is one Hunk of a guy. This book was kind of stupid in that Morgan was so pushy with Misty, and she acted like an idiot half the time. As I read the book, I kept thinking, okay...lets get to the good stuff, where is the romance??? I'm sorry I probably would have liked this book alittle better if I hadn't read about Gabe first, the two don't compare...

Summary: Sizzling Hot
Review: Morgan Hudson wants a wife...someone sweet and biddable. But he WANTS Misty Malone...spicy and, well, just plain ornery. If he says black, she's bound to say white. He has no idea why she affects him the way she does. There's something different about her, about him when he's with her. It takes him a while to figure it out, but eventually he does...it must be love. Lori Foster writes stories of family, of love. Stories that sizzle and always please!

Summary: NOBODY UNDERSTANDS MORGAN
Review: MORGAN HUDSON, THE SHERIFF OF BUCKHORN, HAS A MEAN SCOWL, AND AN OVER BEARING DISPOSITION. WHEN HONEY'S SISTER MISTY MALONE COME TO VISIT FOR HER WEDDING SHE NEVER EXPECTED TO BE ACCEPTED INTO THE FAMILY SO QUICKLY..THAT IS BY EVERYONE BUT MORGAN!! THINKING HE DOESN'T LIKE HER SHE IGNORES HIM AND GOES ABOUT HER DAILY LIFE, BUT MORGAN CAN'T SEEM TO DO THE SAME. WORRIED ABOUT HER HEALTH, DUE TO A PREGNANCY, HE SOON TAKES CHARGE AND BUTS IN, PUTTING HER LIFE BACK IN ORDER. FOR MORGAN IT'S A MATTER OF CONTROLLING THE SITUATION...HELPING SOMEONE IN TROUBLE IS ALL PART OF BEING A SHERIFF, RIGHT? WHILE MORGAN STRUGGLES TO KEEP CONTROL, MISTY PUSHES HIM TO HIS LIMITS, DETERMINED TO MAKE HIM LOOSE IT. AFTER ALL, SHE KNOWS IT'S ALL BLUSTER, HIS BARK IS DEFINATELY WORSE THAN HIS BITE. I LOVED THE BUCKHORN BROTHERS SERIES!!! I HAVE TO ADMIT MORGAN WAS A LITTLE MORE OVERBEARING THAN THE REST OF THE BROTHERS, BUT!!! SOME WOMEN FEEL PROTECTED AND SAFE WITH A MAN LIKE THAT. MISTY NEEDED SOMEONE IN HER LIFE TO TAKE CHARGE AND HELP HER OUT OF A POTENTIALLY BAD SITUATION, WHICH MORGAN DID. HIS FIRST FEELING OF LUST WAS QUICKLY OVER COME BY HIS CONCERN AND COMPASSION ABOUT HER WELL BEING. AND IT TAKES A CARING AND UNDERSTANDING MAN TO RAISE A CHILD THAT ISN'T HIS OWN. ALL IN ALL THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SERIES I'VE EVER READ!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR CASEY'S STORY TO COME OUT IN SEPT. OF 2002!!! =-)

Summary: Buckhorn's Big Bad Sheriff!
Review: MORGAN is book 2 of Lori Foster's The Buckhorn Brothers series. Wow, talk about a scorcher. This man knows exactly how he feels and is very honest and direct about it-to the point of keeping Misty in a perpetual blush. This man, despite his tough-guy cop attitude, has a heart as big as Texas and as soft as a marshmallow. Who wouldn't fall in love with him? Ms. Foster continues to bring us deep, emotional characters in stories that make you feel, make you care; well-written stories with a simmering sensuality that'll have you praying your air conditioner doesn't give out. One Lori Foster book was all it took for me to be hooked for life. Bring on the next Buckhorn brother, Lor, I'm ready!

Summary: Lori Foster must have met my brother in law!
Review: Morgan just reminded me too much of my brother in law and I couldn't help but spend most of the book wondering if my bro in law was EVER going to meet the girl who could runs rings around HIM! But, anyway, on with the review . . . Morgan is the town control freak - I mean sheriff. He protects his own, and just about everybody in town is part of his "own". This is definately one over protective mama bear protecting the cubs! And just when Morgan started to think that he needed a wife to complete things - WHAM! In walks his new sister in law and its lust at first sight! Morgan wants her, but knows it probably won't last, so he doesn't want to hurt anyone and keeps his hormones to himself. Eventually, Morgan realizes he can't live without Misty. And of course, no one would get hurt if they got MARRIED! So, there you go. My favorite part of this book was Morgan's natural acceptance of Misty's pregnancy by another man. The other guy was a jerk who didn't deserve a family, but Morgan wants what this guy threw away. I liked the fact that Morgan understood the difference between being a the sperm doner and a dad.

Summary: Another winning Hudson brother
Review: Morgan, the second in the quadruple-title series from Lori Foster, won't let down Hudson fans. As with Sawyer, the book's cover is a disappointment that doesn't come close to how I see Morgan Hudson, but the story is just as entertaining as what I've come to expect from Ms. Foster. An insufferable man, whose middle name should be "Control", Morgan Hudson is about to learn what it means to be felled by a tiny slip of a woman, what it means to lose that control. The woman in question, Misty Malone, has a lot of things on her mind and getting involved with the local sheriff is not one of them. She's convinced he can't stand her and that suits her just fine. Trouble is, that's not how Morgan feels at all and he has a hard time coming to terms with what he wants and why he wants it. Misty and Morgan are temperamentally matched - not exactly the ideal for either to win an argument, and there are plenty of battles between these two strong-willed characters. The ice-cream cone battle of wills in Morgan's office is priceless. I actually gasped with the characters at one point. But as Misty learns to accept Morgan for who he is, and comes to love him all the more for it, she also comes to realize that behind the gruff exterior is a gentle man with bouts of insecurity when it comes to her. He also seems to have a devil of a time uttering those three little words. The showdown between these two, in front of the sheriff's office [and the whole town], is wrenching and humorous and my heart went out to Morgan. It's always fun to watch a tough guy struggle with the realization that he's fallen in love and this tough guy was no exception. The bigger they are, the harder they fall. Although this installment didn't have the same level of humor as the first, the story again features the entire Hudson brood in kitchen scenes where the easy camaraderie of the men in the family -- who tease, torment, defend and protect their siblings (and spouses) - are a delight to read. We also are introduced to more of the town's residents and to Honey and Misty's father. Each Hudson is taking on a personality of his own and I'm looking forward to learning more about Gabe.
