Not what I was expecting at all, but a joy to read nonetheless! The story of Bella and Levi is a roller coaster, honking you from the very beginning. Bella, an English aristocrat in hiding, has moved to the country, where the handsome cowboy Levi is charged with keeping her safe. The fact that they are complete opposites make the story hilarious and steamy, making it easy to fall in love with them. I’m definitely excited to read more by this author!

This was such a cute book! It reminded me of a sweet romance movie that you might find on TV. This book centers on Levi, a retired Navy Seal, and Bella, a key witness in need of protection. Levi finds the perfect cover for Bella and is “hired” to care for his younger sister after the death of their parents. Levi, Bella, and his siblings quickly form a bond. This great story brought a bit of everything, including suspense and romance. The characters are great and easy to relate to. Levi and Bella help each other heal and grow– which is what love should be about. I am looking forward to reading more from this author and this series!

This book is about Levi and Bella. Levi is a retired navy seal who is a triplet and he’s home at his families ranch with his 2 brothers. They are in charge of caring for their little sister. When an old friend contacts Levi looking for help protecting someone it seems like a great solution for both of them to have Bella come stay on the ranch which will keep her safe and while she is there, she will care for Allie. Bella is lonely and misses her brother so much and wants to contact him but, Levi keeps telling her that’s not possible. Levi is a brute of a man and Bella seems to think he dislikes her but, it’s actually the opposite. They are both attracted to eachother but the number one priority is keeping her safe. Like any great navy seal book, it’s only a matter of time until one of them crosses a line. Bella notices Levi has a bit of PTSD from his days as a seal and has a perfect remedy for him. I thought this was a great read and look forward to more by this author

This book was an absolutely lovely read. I flew threw it in one setting. Levi is a triplet, all boys, and they have a younger half sister. After losing their parents they are left taking care of the ranch and their little sister Allie. Bella needs somewhere to hideout for a while so Levi agrees to protect her. Her cover is a hired nanny for Allie and to help assist with the household chores.
Levi and Bella’s story is so incredibly sweet. The brother love for Allie was heart warming. The story was just so full of emotions. I can’t wait to read the other brothers stories.

Levi (The Brothers of Creekside Ranch Book 1) by Edith Mackenzie
LOVED this story! Captivating, full of action & suspense & likable characters. Just the right amount of humor to keep The reader entertained. Very enjoyable. Excited to read the next two books of the series that will focus on the other two brothers.
Bella is running from the Russian mob, when she finds herself hiding as a nanny of an orphaned 9yr old girl, who is living with her triplet brothers on a ranch. Not too familiar with domestic chores & children, this task gives Bella a run for her money. Ex-Navy Seal, Levi, returns home to his family ranch to help his two brothers run the ranch & raise their sister. When Levi gets a call from a military buddy asking to house Bella and keep her safe until the trial, they use the nanny job as a cover. Undeniable attraction develops between Levi & Bella, as the everyone attempts to adjust to their new way of life. Levi struggles with his anger and PTSD, while Bella learns to stand up for herself. Can Levi and his family keep Bella safe and can Bella help Levi work through his demons from his previous life to build something special? Beautiful love story that leaves you rooting for the “happily ever after” ♥️
Phenomenally written, this was my first Edith MacKenzie book, but it will not be my last. Can’t wait to delve into the next two Brothers of Creekside Ranch Books! 5 stars for sure!

This story has a sad start, a sad under-lying reason for Levi and Bella to meet. While the reason is sad the rest of the story line and characters are sweet, fun and oh so cute. I really liked how these two characters needed each other and then that need turned into something else altogether. And in such a short amount of time.
This trio of brothers and their sister will make for some very fun stories. Doesn’t everyone love a cowboy? A family man? Levi is just what we need. He’s rough and tough and needs the kindness that Bella brings to the table. She also brings the love that only a female can give, both to Levi and his siblings.
This author’s way with words keeps you engrossed in the story. Even with the sweet story there is a touch of danger since the Russian Mafia is involved. Thankfully Levi is ex-Navy Seal so he should be able to save the girl and the day!!
Hopefully the rest of the family finds their happily ever afters sooner rather than later!!

Levi is a retired Navy SEAL. He’s back to living on a ranch with his triplet brothers after their dad and step-mom were killed. The triplets have a ranch and a little sister to take care of now. Levi’s connections bring the perfect nanny to help care for their younger sister. Bella, the nanny, is a witness-in-hiding until she can bring down her mafia ex-boyfriend. The siblings and Bella learn to get along and get used to life together on the ranch. When disaster strikes they have to band together for everyone’s sake. “Levi” would be a perfect Hallmark movie. It was a wholesome story with likeable characters that was an easy read.

I really enjoyed this wholesome mystery. Levi, a tough former Navy SEAL, has agreed to help protect and hide Bella who is needed to testify against her ex-boyfriend. Little do each other know, they are exactly what each of them needed. There really wasn’t a dull moment in the book but the beginning had a slower start but boy was it hard to put down. The character development between the key characters was great and I found I was falling in love with the family. At times, I was holding my breath with anticipation at what was to come next. I can’t wait for the next installment.

My first book from this author. And this book was softer than things I’ve been reading. I enjoyed the characters and the story line. A little short for what I normally like as well, but wouldn’t deter me from recommending it.

The love story developed here is endearing, and the witty banter adds to the appeal. There are many concepts at which the story hits on, “I can fix him”, strong female heroine, and “tough guy with lots of layers” pretty much sums it up. It’s a good drive for the book and overall plot, but instances of the heroine rushing in to save the day and being amazing adds a stretch that seems both unrealistic in terms of the characters backstory but as an overall unrealistic feel.
Overall a good, quick read that tugs in the heart strings and leads the reader feeling satisfied with the happy ending.

I absolutely loved this story! Whilst I love romance stories with the steamy scenes sometimes it is nice to read a clean romance story and this was 100% that! I loved getting to know the characters Levi and Bella (also known as Beccy) they certainly had a love hate relationship and I just loved them together! The story may have been a little predictable but I didn’t care because I was completely swept up in the blossoming romance between the two main characters (even if they didn’t want to admit it). I knew that Levi was going to be a big softy underneath that hardened exterior and I knew Bella would be the one to break down those barriers! I also loved all of the secondary characters and I’m very excited for each other brothers to get their own stories and Little Allie was just the sweetest! She’s definitely lucky with those big brothers to look out for her! A wonderful read and one that I would highly recommend – I can’t wait for the next book! This was also a wonderful introduction to a new author!

Book 1 of The Brothers if Creekside Ranch is fabulous. I enjoyed immersing myself in this ranch and this little family. Triplet brothers raising their sister after the recent passing of their parents. Levi, former Navy Seal, brings Bella to the ranch to protect her at the request of one of his Seal buddies. Neither Levi nor Bella know what they are in for when they get there. This story is compelling and the descriptions made it all come to life in my mind. I can’t wait to continue this journey with this family.

Levi had me hooked from the first page. The author has a way with words and I hardly put my kindle down while reading this book. The book started right in the middle of the action. I thought Levi was a jerk in the beginning and was happy to learn the reason why, and start to see a transition to him mid-book. His brothers are fun and very loveable so I can’t wait to read their stories. Bella is not at all what I expected. She grew up an aristocrat, but somehow ended up with a Russian mob boy friend. I wish there was more back story there, but it gave us enough information to go on, and we discovered more of their past relationship as the story went on. The ending was abrupt but at the same time was kind of a perfect happily ever after. I am glad to know the story continues in book two though. Happy to have found a new author and series!

Sometimes you need a quick clean romance book to fill your afternoon and thats exactly what this book was. We meet a family who has suffered a huge loss and things really took off from there. This was a very fast feeling timeline and while we get to know a lot of info on each main character Im greedy and wanted so much more back story on both of them.
I cant wait to read about the rest of the brothers we met here.

I really enjoyed this book. Bella is an all around sweet woman, and the way Levi treats her is just disgusting since he knows nothing about why she has been thrust into his care. He just makes assumptions. On the other hand he is going through some things of his own so I can see why he is distrustful of people and wary. Bella being dropped into the brother’s and Allie’s lives is the best thing that could have happened for all of them and the bond they all form is nice, especially for Bella due to the past she has shared with her ex. Bella is a strong and amazing woman for protected Allie the way she does. I hope to see more of the brothers and see what becomes of Levi’s brothers, Amos and Elijah.

Levi: A clean and wholesome wounded hero cowboy romance (The Brothers of Creekside Ranch #1) by Edith MacKenzie
This isn’t the first book I’ve read by the author. Levi is the first book in The Brothers of Creekside Ranch. Levi is a fantastic read and will leave you wanting more.
Bella, or Beccy the nanny, is sent to live with Levi and his siblings for protection. Although Amos and Elijah have no idea who she really is. She falls for Levi only for it to turn bad. Her ex finds her and takes Allie. The quote I chose for Bella is: “There are a few blanks I’m going to need you to fill me in on. Is Allie safe? Thank God. It doesn’t matter what I can remember or not, there’s one thing I’m certain about. I love you, Levi. My stubborn, ornery, pig-headed loyal protector even when I don’t want it.”
Levi hates that he had to bury his dad and step mom. He doesn’t like that his sister now has no patents. Then he hates how Bella makes him feel. That’s until she goes to rescue his sister on her own, putting herself in danger. The quote I chose for Levi is: “Giving me permission to marry Bella. I still would have married her without it, but it’s nicer for everyone this way.”
Highly recommended for Clean Western Romance lovers

Levi was a sweet/hard different type of romance than I’m used to. A band of male identical triplets, which gives me at least 2 more books to look forward to. This is Levi’s wild ride. Well written with beautiful character growth especially for the main female character was exponential. In witness protection to be hidden from her Russian Mafia ex-boyfriend, Bella finds herself a nanny to a recently orphaned girl. Though she’s not Bella to them but Beccy instead. The only one who knows her real identity is Levi. Bella does everything she can to fit and blend in but housework and cooking was never something she ever did before. Levi, ex-Navy seal, has been tasked to keep Bella safe. He uses it to his advantage by suggesting she be a nanny to his baby sister. Levi is deeply wounded from his time in the military, so if you suffer from ptsd go into this novel and tread lightly. I know people personally who could sympathize with Levi as they’ve battled that monster as well. Helping each other along the way Bella and Levi end up growing closer to one another, developing a connection that grows throughout. Bella is posh and Levi is hard nosed and hands on, what would these two ever have in common? Is it a story of safety? Or is it about opposites attracting? Do their feelings get in the way? If only their lives were easier, maybe they could explore the chemistry between them. Maybe there is just lots to look forward to, not only in Levi’s story but in the future books starring Amos and Elijah.

Bella, I MEAN, Beccy is a nanny who has never nannied before in her life. What happens when her past catches up to her at the wrong moment? Edith MacKenzie perfectly sculpted the way these characters interacted and grew. You’ll fall in love with each one of them! I couldn’t seem to put the book down! 5/5 HIGHLY RECCOMEND

I read this story in one sitting! I took an immediate liking to all the characters and their differences. They’re no stranger to tragedy and rough situations, but are a close knit family and the new nanny Beccy fits right in. This definitely was a wholesome cowboy romance and I can’t wait to visit these characters again in future installments of this series.
I look forward to reading more of Edith’s books! I can tell she is very knowledgeable about horses and writes a story you could make into a movie. It was an entertaining read and I can’t wait to read more. Thrilling and romantic! A great combo.

Great storyline, superb character development. I’m excited to read the next one.

This was an enjoyable and engaging western style, clean romance, which kept me happily turning the pages. Bella Orstwell, is an English aristocrat who helped get her abusive Russian mafia boyfriend arrested, but is now in hiding whilst awaiting the trial. Bella has to pretend to be both the housekeeper to the Delaney Brothers and a nanny to their younger sister. Although all three of the brothers are attractive, it’s cowboy, Levi that catches her eye, however, it’s also ex-Navy SEAL Levi who is in charge of protecting her. Levi is busy enough helping his brothers run the ranch and raising his little sister, without having to take on a ‘babysitting gig’. He definitely wasn’t expecting Bella who is both annoying and lovely at the same time, and all he can think about is kissing her, when he’s not ordering her around, for her safety. Meanwhile, Bella is determined not to follow all of Levi’s many orders, but although she has sworn off men, there is something about wounded hero Levi which makes her want to heal him. Soon the couple have more dangerous things to deal with as any HEA can only happen if Levi can keep Bella alive when her past comes looking for her. The main characters are all likeable and relatable, and the chemistry between Levi and Bella came across in the narrative and in their banter. I was hooked from start to finish and I felt immersed in the storyline, which was a good mix of, drama, suspense and romance.

Levi is an ex-SEAL that is settling into life on the family ranch. After the tragic loss of both their father and stepmother, Levi and his two brothers are also raising their much younger sister. Things become interesting when Levi is asked to keep a mysterious woman safe so she can testify against her criminal ex-boyfriend. Posing as “Beccy”, a nanny for their sister, Bella is not anyone’s nanny, let alone housekeeper. One small act upsets the whole operation and puts the little sister at risk. How can Bella make things right with the brothers, especially Levi? This is going to be an excellent series. The first book sets the stage for some interesting stories to follow. Highly recommended!

LOVED this one! It is a wonderful beginning to a new series. It has action, suspense, drama and some romance. This is very well written from the storyline to the building of the cast. I really *felt* for these characters and I actually was very moved by a scene that included a dog. I enjoyed meeting Levi’s family and learning more about him and what makes him tick. The female lead was a complete mystery and I am going to leave her that way so you can discover her secrets all on your own. She did surprise me more than once.
This is a first time author for me. I adored her character’s and can not wait for the next in the series. While this is a clean romance the story is fulfilling enough that I did not miss the open door scenes.
