Montana SEAL (Brotherhood Protectors Book 1) Kindle Edition
Hank "Montana" Patterson never thought his call to duty would force him to leave his band of brothers in the Navy SEALs to return to the family ranch in the foothills of Montana's Crazy Mountains. News that his father was shot sends him rushing home to take over the reins of the Bear Creek Ranch. His forever-belligerent father refuses his help, insisting Hank find the person who shot him. What Hank learns is the bullet was meant for the neighboring ranch owner, a Hollywood celebrity, and a beautiful actress who once stole Hank's heart.
Hometown girl, now a Hollywood mega-star, Sadie McClain shot to fame and fortune on the big screen, earning her star on the walk of fame and a stalker who won't back off. Escaping to her ranch in Montana, Sadie hopes to avoid her stalker, only to be hunted there as well. In need of a bodyguard with combat skills, Sadie hires her old flame, Hank to do the job. Together they struggle to overcome their rekindled desire while fighting to stay alive in the crosshairs of a madman.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 November 2024This is the story of former high school lovers Hank Patterson and Sadie McClain. After going their separate ways, Hank became Navy SEAL “Montana” and Sadie became a Hollywood mega-star. An injured Hank returns home after his father is shot, and discovers the intended target was Sadie. Protecting her body while keeping his heart safe proves impossible. New dreams could make their wishes come true but only if they survive her stalker. Nice twist at the end.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 May 2021Nice read, I liked the characters. The story was ok though I found it less realistic than it should be. But overall an enjoyable easy read.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 December 2018Another action packed read. I seem to be reading this series out of order - first bk , got me hooked, now back to bk 1, and from here on I'll move forward in order. I must say the series was brilliant by bk 6 - and even in bk 1 you can feel the potential. I really do love the way the author starts off which the essence of the men doing what they are trained for, before the horror, the loyalty and the friendships formed. After a devastating period in their lives, they learn to move forwards, adapt and love life in all manner of ways. This author throws everything into the pot, gives it a stir, then leave us, the reader to savor the treat. Well worth a read.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 September 2016This book is basically a second chance romance about high school sweethearts separating to pursue very different careers. He becomes a Navy Seal and she a Hollywood movie star. Over a decade later their paths cross again in their hometown of Montana.
She's having a break and visiting her married brother at the family ranch besides hiding from an obsessed fan. He on the other hand is on a medical discharge and sort of appoints himself as her bodyguard.
Although it flowed steadily enough I found it too tame and clean, almost old fashioned in its execution. It did heat up some around 60%, where they both relinquished their pent up passion.
The mystery of her stalker wasn't such a great mystery as it happened. An ok read, that finished at 87%.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 December 2023A well written book that keeps you reading and enjoying the experience!
Elle James has not let me down I have enjoyed all her books I've read so far!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 May 2025This is too short as book but packs in a lot. Navy Seal is injured on duty. Gets call to return home as father shot. Finds his childhood sweetheart has gone home too from Hollywood. Someone is out to kill her. But who and why? All revealed in explosive finale.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 February 2018This was the first book that I've read by this author, and I'm glad I pucked it up now. The setting, the characters, the twist, I loved it. It's a second chance romance between a big actor and injured SEAL. The way they get flung back I to each others arms was interesting. They had to over come a threat to Sadie, but it left her full family in danger. I'm glad it got the ending it did, and I look forward to book 2.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 February 2018Childhood sweethearts Sadie and Hank went their separate ways to pursue their dreams - Hollywood actress and Navy SEAL. Fate returns them to their childhood homes and gives them a chance to reconnect.
This is a quick sweet read full of action and romance. Worth spending an afternoon curled up with.

5.0 out of 5 stars Montana SEAL
In the first installment of The Brotherhood Protectors, Ella James pens another SEAL romantic suspense. In this second chance at love romance, she chronicles the romantic journey of Sadie McClain and Hank Patterson. Years ago, after graduating high school, Sadie breaks up with Hank. She did it to allow him the opportunity to pursue his dream of joining the Navy and becoming a SEAL. Destiny brings both of them back to Eagle Rock. Sadie returns to reclaim calmness, recenter her soul, and escape a stalker. Hank returns to heal from the injuries incurred while on his last mission and to discover who shot his dad. What happens when Sadie and Hank meet again? Will they still fight against their true feelings? What happens when some is intent on killing Sadie? Can Hank keep her safe? To find out, you must
Like the other works written by Ms. St. James, this one was equally outstanding. Her mastery of literary devices such as, characterization, dialog, dual POV, and descriptive language garnered my attention from the get-go. The scenes where the couple work together to identify the person behind the threats to Sadie’s life are riveting. As this is the first book in this series, Ms. James presents a historical foundation for the basis of the rest of series. Readers learn the events that transpired that caused Hank to establish his protection agency. What is missing is how Hank and Sadie embrace age-play. Nevertheless, Ms. St. James did not disappoint me with this book. In fact, the opposite is true. I so wanted to read more about the other members of the brotherhood.

4.0 out of 5 stars Drama, mystery and romance: add attempted murder and surprises abound
Following an ambush while on a mission to rescue a hostage, our hero is injured and must decide on his future. Meanwhile his first love, who has become a movie star, has come home to Montana to rest and recover from the stressors of her life. They meet again following a shooting where his father is injured. Sparks fly and our couple must make some decisions on their individual futures and possibly a joint one.
It becomes obvious that someone is intent on harming the starlet, and some near misses occur before the drama unfolds.
I enjoyed reading this story, and look forward to others in the series. Ms James always carries me along with her storylines as they are woven with mystery and romance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Four and a half stars
Great action packed adventure that took in all elements, with vivid descriptions of each scene. Elle James created an interesting story of an injured Navy Seal contemplating his future with the military, trying to decide if he wanted to continue or move on to something else. When his past love (who never left his heart) needs a bodyguard, Hank steps in.
The first half of Montana Seal was great! Lots of action, mystery and romantic tingles. Gosh! How I love those tingles! The very last portion of the book when everything comes to a head (no spoilers here) was also very exciting and well written. In between the first and the last parts... well...I have no objections to the sex scenes, but be warned that there are indeed some rather intense sex scenes. Those sex scenes, however, may have been a bit too much all lumped together, one right after the next. Just my opinion! Even with that, I truly enjoyed the book and love this author's writing. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in this series or checking out other books by Elle James.
On a side note, this was not a very long book. A bit less than 200 pages, and can be read in a short amount of time.
