This is a great series, love the characters and the storyline. Can't wait to read the next book. Mjw

Book 6 in the series. Stands alone. Economic conditions, job loss, financial disasters or extreme stress can lead good men to bad. They can become desperate, do stupid things and lash out. Rumor has it that there is a terrorist cell operating training in the mountains of Montana. The FBI has sent Molly to investigate. Joe just moved to Montana for a new security job with his recently reunited Army service dog. He is soon working with and protecting Molly to find the terrorist activity. I'm glad the service dog was able to find a home with Joe. While the book starts with Joe having suffered traumatic brain injury and knee surgery, he has recovered enough to work well with Molly and his new boss and coworkers. Molly is a bit naive but it is her first field work. Overall a good romance adventure. I've read better by this author but will try again

Montana Dog Soldier (Brotherhood Protectors Book 6) by Elle James This is Joseph "Kujo" Kuntz, and Molly Greenbriar's story. Also, we can't forget Six, the service dog. Kujo and Six are retired from the military and trying to find a new purpose in life. Then Molly comes into their life. I loved this full of action, suspenseful, hot, and steamy romance. This is a must read! FYI, contains mature content.  I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Joe Kuntz, Kujo to his team mates, has fallen off the grid. When an injury got him discharged from Delta, he had to leave his friends and hi war dog, Six, behind. Now essentially hermit in the mountains his life is simple and lonely. But when he is tracked down by former team-mates with a job offer and more importantly that Six needs him. Molly is on her first real solo fieldwork mission. She came across intel of an ISIS training camp in Montana and with resources stretched, she was granted authority to carry out some recon on her own, no interaction with the bad guys. Pity the bad guys didn't get the same message! When her drone is shot down and then she is shot at and forced from the track she was riding on, Molly realises that her cover may have been blown. Rescued by the enigmatic, stubborn and taciturn Joe and his dog Six, she is in no shape to argue but she is not about to spill all her secrets. But when Joe's cabin is set alight he is pulled deeper into Molly's case and he brings in the "Brotherhood" to assist. Molly realises she was never quite as Solo as she thought! Excellent book. I have only read a few of the others in this series but it in now way hampered me or detracted from my enjoyment of the book, they are all able to be read independently. Wonderful web of PTSD, wounded veterans, small town politics and big time romance. Joe is a great hero, even when he doesn't want to be! Six almost steals the show though, he is a cutie with a strong work ethic. Molly is a great, strong, character. She is a professional law enforcement officer and no wimpy damsel in distress!

Loved this book! Kujo is a Delta operator with a dog partner when his is seriously injured in a blast and loses his career and his dog in a single moment. After recovering, he escapes to the mountains to nurse his wounds. He stays there for years and only leaves after two of his Delta brothers find him to see if he wants his dog back and to offer him a job with them in Montana. The dog is scheduled to be euthanized as no one else is able to work with him or manage him. Almost before he knows it, Kujo is on his way to get his dog back and then head to Montana. Molly is an FBI agent without field experience that is sent alone to rural Montana to rule out an ISIS training camp is there. She has barely launched her drone to surveil the area when it is spotted, putting her in peril. These circumstances bring Kujo and Molly together to try and figure out what is going on, while also trying to avoid serious injury or death. This is a fast paced romantic suspense that fans of the genre will love. The author is on my must read authors' list.

This story is part of Ms James’s series, Brotherhood Protectors. Rest assured that it’s a stand alone. I have not read the previous books, and had no problems . In this one, our main characters are ex-Delta Forces Kujo, Molly, an FBI agent new to field work, and we must not forget Six, the ex-Army dog. While serving , Kujo suffered physical and personal injuries, and was medically discharged 3 years ago. He lives an isolated life as a mountain man. He has lost friends in the war, his teammates , his purpose in life, and with skills useful only in the military, he just exists. He is pulled out of the mountain when a couple of his Delta Forces buddies come to visit and inform him Six, his dog in the Army, is about to be put down. Molly in the meantime, goes to Montana because of suspicious activities in the Montana mountains . Probably of ISIS origin. She encounters Kujo twice. The second time when he rescues her. Needless to say there is an attraction there. All in all , a story filled with intrigue, suspense, bad guys, strong ex-military men, and s strong female character, as well as romance. But what really got to me, was the author’s reminder that when the troops return to the USA, many do not have the skills to integrate into civilian life. We, as a nation, must support these men and women who fight for our freedom. Thank you , Ms James, for that reminder. I was gifted copy. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

This is a great series! Montana Dog Soldier is the sixth book in the Brotherhood Protector series but each story stands alone and you won't feel lost if you don't read the others first. The other books are really good, though, so I recommend reading them. The story starts out three years in the past and lets us know how Joseph "Kujo" Kuntz was injured. Next, we learn what Kujo is doing now – which isn't much. Things gain steam pretty quickly after his former teammates find him and recruit him to join the Brotherhood Protectors. There's more, too, involving a former bomb sniffing dog but I'm not giving anything away here. My attention was grabbed me right from the start – the story is filled with suspense – and I finished it in one sitting. Who can resist a former Delta Force soldier and his dog? I sure couldn't and I thoroughly enjoyed reading another great story from one of my favorite authors, Elle James. I was also happy to learn that she has more books planned for this series. An advanced copy of this book was provided to me but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author.

Kujo, his Former Delta Force nickname, just moved to Montana to work for Hank Patterson, joining the teams security business. Kujo was able to adopt his service dog, Six after he was injured and retired. When they are walking in the woods they find a beautiful injured woman, Molly who unbeknown to him is a FBI agent looking into a possible Terrorist training group purported to be in the mountains nearby. Story is exciting, suspenseful, sexy, attractive with good strong characters.
