Hunter is the ranger in this book from the series. Tala is his former fiancé who has returned to Sweetheart, Montana after having been away for six years. She has returned to accept an inheritance from her aunt and to work as an RN at a local hospital. The storyline follows the events that occur as Hunter and Tala reconnect and get to know one another again. The storyline was pretty dark from Hunter’s hurt when Tala left to a secondary storyline about poaching. While Hunter and Tal do get back together in the end, their reunion came surprisingly quickly given the rather dark storyline and Hunter’s apparent mistrust of Tal up until that time. I wish that a little less time had been spent on the secondary storyline and more time spent on developing their reunion.

Having read the first two books in this series I was waiting for this one to learn more about Hunter and his Grandfather,who had taught him the Native American ways.
I loved how Hunter took his ex fiancée’s little brother Penn under his wing, it was such a heartfelt part of the story.
When this author takes you to the mountains it’s like your really there.

Tara left Montana at 18, just before she was going to marry Hunter. Now six years later she is back, and the hurt and the sparks are still there. A good story, although at times I struggled to understand why she left, or at least left the way she did. Also, enjoyed the side story of the poachers and the search and rescue. Would have liked more on that too. Overall a good story, and one I enjoyed, but a bit more in-depth would have helped. Otherwise, one I highly recommend.

Ranger’s Pride is the third book in Vella Munn’s Montana Rangers series and is a tale of second chances and the revelations that come from looking within. Ms Munn tells of the Native American culture and beliefs in the most profound and insight ways that you can’t help but feel she has insider knowledge.

The storyline is wonderful and the character portrayals are tender and heart-warming too. Hunter and Tala have hard lessons to learn in their quest for forever happiness, and there can’t help but be a little heartache along the way; all in all, this is a deep and emotional story and I’m sure readers will be holding their breath waiting for this couple’s HEA.

The emotionally grabbing romance, involving Native American cultural beliefs, brought a wonderful spiritual aspect to the story. The author has woven in the spiritual fabric of how the interconnection of all life’s elements are in our past, present, and future and guiding us, giving an unexpected peacefulness to Hunter and Tala’s second chance journey to their HEA. There is a tenderness to the couple’s story, which is heartwarming and yet achingly heartbreaking of the lessons learned that brought them full circle.

Final book in this series - I have to say it wasn't my favourite of the three books but I did enjoy reading it.
Hunter and Tala were engaged until she left town. Now she is back and it seems like they can't keep away from each other. But he knows she will be leaving town again so will she break his heart again?
