REVIEW: Montana Dreams by Kim Law

In Montana Dreams by Kim Law, Arsula is a dream reader, and a dream told her she needed to be in Birch Bay to help someone. When she advises Jaden Wilde’s girlfriend to break up with him, she had no idea that it was, in fact, Jaden, who she was meant to help. She has to figure out just what she is supposed to help him with. Jaden, upset with Arsula’s role in his relationship’s demise, doesn’t believe in Arsula’s abilities and he’s not going to make it easy for her.

I liked both Jaden and Arsula for the most part. There were times when I found Jaden to bit exasperating though, especially when he was putting down Arsula’s abilities. Even if he didn’t believe in her dream reading, I thought he didn’t have to be so rude about it because it only upset Arsula. I felt bad for him though, especially when Arsula discovers what his problem really is. Arsula is determined to get to the root of Jaden’s problem, and she doesn’t let anything, including his negative attitude towards her ability. I also felt bad for her, because she wants nothing more than to make her father proud, but he doesn’t support her career choice.

This is the fourth book in the series but it can be read as a standalone. I do recommend reading the other books though, to see how each of Jaden’s siblings deal with the aftermath of their mother’s narcissitic disorder that they had to suffer through during their childhoods.

I would recommend this book for readers who enjoy opposites attract stories. The characters are well-written and readers will feel for not only Arsula and Jaden, but for the rest of the Wilde siblings as well. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series.

Publication: September 25, 2018 | Montlake Romance | The Wildes of Birch Bay #4

When Jaden Wilde’s girlfriend turns down his marriage proposal just months before he receives his master’s in counseling, he’s convinced that it’s cold feet. Until he learns that her no came at the advice of a new age “dream reader.” But Arsula’s hardly the woo-woo hippie his scholarly mind imagined. She’s charming, smart, and uncannily perceptive. And before long, he’s drawn to her—despite his ongoing skepticism for how her practice works.

Arsula’s intuitions led her to Birch Bay not to guide Jaden’s girlfriend—but to guide him to his best life possible. As the odd one out in an unsupportive family, Arsula can relate to the struggle to find one’s path, and she wants to see Jaden with the woman of his dreams. Although she’s cautious of being the rebound girl, what she’s starting to feel for him is too real to ignore.

When Jaden’s own volatile family issues come to a head and his doubts are made resoundingly clear, Arsula worries she’s misread the signs. Maybe they’re all wrong for each other. Maybe he should be with his ex. She’s supported him, but if he can’t believe in her, how will they ever find out if they’re truly meant to be?
