Search and rescue pilot Kacey Fairing is home on leave in Mercy Falls, Montana, twelve years after she joined the military to escape the mistakes of her past. With a job waiting for her as the new lead pilot of Peak Rescue in Glacier National Park, Kacey hopes to reconnect with the now-teenage daughter she sees only between deployments. What she doesn’t realize is that someone else is also back in town.
Ben King has been building his country music career since the day Kacey shut him out of her life. Now all of that’s on hold when his injured father calls him home to help run Peak Rescue until he’s fully recovered. It doesn’t take long, though, to discover his father’s ulterior motives as Kacey Fairing walks into the house and back into his heart.
With Mercy Falls in a state of emergency due to flash floods, Kacey and Ben are forced to work together to save lives. But when floodwaters turn personal, can they put aside the past to save their future?

Summary
I wasn't sure if I was going to like this story. I'm not typically a fan of stories where the woman had the baby in the man didn't know. But in Wild Montana Skies Susan was able to weave a drama of young love, misunderstandings and parents wanting what they think is best for their kids. The author doesn't pull any punches. She has characters that deal with real problems. Kacey was pregnant at 16, kept her baby and went into the service to support her and her daughter. Her parents have helped her raise her daughter Audrey. The author shows the tough decisions she made serving her country and trying to be a mom at the same time. Kasey is a search and rescue pilot on leave and helping with PEAK search and rescue ran by her high school boyfriend’s Dad.
I wasn't sure if I was going to like Ben because at first he seemed shallow and self-absorbed. I ended up liking him and cheering for him as he tries to win Kacey back. I also was impressed how the author handled the situation where Kasey confronts her parents. There were some touching scenes between Ben and his dad. This is definitely just as much of a drama as it is a romance. Since this is the beginning of the series I'm interested to see which of the other characters are going to get their own books. The secondary storyline of Ian and Sierra had my attention just as much as Kacey and Ben. He's been looking for his niece who disappeared three years ago.
Sexual content: you know they had sex as teens, there is still chemistry, kissing, hugging,
Violence: danger from the flood but not true violence, Ian's niece is missing and we don't know what happened to her, a body are found while hiking, kids get separated while hiking
