He thought he was in control until she snuck into his heart… Carter Hill walked away from a perfectly fine life and relationship…all for a career she’s chased since she was fourteen. Years and a PhD later, she loves her job as a water rights consultant. At the same time, now that all her brothers are happily married, she’s lonely and wanting more. But the only man in her life is Logan – super … is Logan – super serious, no sense of humor, and friend-zoned. Or is he? Perhaps a sexy, no-strings affair with a man more driven than she is could help her move on.
Logan Cartez doesn’t date, do relationships, or worry about commitment. He’s married to his job – making sure what destroyed his family ranch and their legacy doesn’t happen to others. When Carter propositions him, what began as a passionate and unforgettable night soon develops into more. Logan finds himself doing things he swore he never would, and the feisty, brilliant, blue-eyed rancher’s daughter has him thinking about so much more than work.

By Kadie Scott
5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Landing the Lawman (Hills of Texas Book 5) by Kadie Scott. It is a western romance book that pulled me in from the beginning and I found myself not able to put it down. I loved reading about the character of Carter Hill and Logan Cartez. Carter is a strong, intelligent, and independent woman. She does, however, feel the loneliness seeing her brothers who are happily married. Logan is a man who doesn’t do relationships and puts his career first. He doesn’t have time for commitments as he puts all his passion into his work. There is an attraction between Carter and Logan. They both feel it. One-night changes things. What does the future hold for Carter and Logan? Will Logan take a chance with Carter? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had my emotions going up and down with the characters. I grew to care about Carter and Logan and wanted them to find happiness. I have read other books in this series and I enjoyed that the characters from the previous books are brought forward into this one. There is plenty of romance in this book that will make the temperature in the room rise. This is a story that warms the heart and I loved the close feeling of family that characters show.

Landing the Lawman (Hills of Texas #5) by Kadie Scott
5 Stars
I have loved all of this series, and when I started this one I was a little worried because it took me a bit longer to get in to it, but as it moved I found myself not being able to put it down. It was awesome to finally get Carters story and I loved her spunk and feisty attitude, which she seriously needed with Mr. all business Logan.
I pretty much knew what would happen, but how this writer took me there was a fun ride. I loved the family dynamic as usual, this is what has made me love this series the most.
I can’t wait for more from this author, I love her writing style, it’s always a smooth flow and before you know it your done. This was a fun book and I highly recommend it. It can absolutely be read as a stand alone but I recommend following this family from the beginning.
Loved it!
I knew as soon as I recieved this book after reading other books from this author that I would love and boy was I right I just couldn’t pull my eyes away from the pages. The story was so enjoyable and engaging it had a storyline that kept you wanting more and eager to turn the pages to find out what happens next. I loved the character’s and I felt like I could real experience what they were feeling and also visualise everything around them. I love nothing more then reading a story where you can get lost amongst the pages and just get away from reality and this novel hit the nail right on the head and keeps your attention throughout. Brilliant read can’t wait to read more.
Landing the Lawman (Hills of Texas #5) by Kadie Scott was a sweet romantic story. I enjoyed the friends to lovers story, it was very well written. I loved Carter’s character, she was really confident and sure of herself. I love a female lead that is very sure of herself and knows what she wants and needs. Logan was also a great lead that worked well with Carter’s personality. From the get go I could see a spark and could not wait to dig in deeper.
I absolutely adore this series! Its one of those series that completely fills your heart up throughout the whole book!
Carter is a water writes consultant and her biggest client to date is Logan who helps farms with their water supply. They started as a purely professional relationship turned into a beautiful friendship. Carter is a workaholic. She lives to work and doesn’t take time to do much of anything else. Logan shows her there is more to life than working. It took a series of events for Logan and Carter to finally cross that line they’ve been toeing and finally find the love they were destined for.
I love this series and this book! Kadie writes such beautiful stories and I cannot wait to read more from her!
Landing the Lawman (Hills of Texas #5) by Kadie Scott. I LOVED this book. Its the 5th book in the series but can be read as a standalone. Its the story of Carter Hill who chose to walk away from a good relationship because she wanted a career outside of the home. If she had married and stayed home she would be working on the ranch and being a wife and mom, she wanted that but she also wanted more. She wanted to be a Water Rights Consultant for a long time and she had worked hard to become one. Now she was working with some amazing attorneys and she felt as if she was making a difference and working with Logan Cartez one of those amazing attorney was an added bonus. She was attracted to Logan but she was afraid to cross the friendship line because she knew Logan didn’t do relationships. After an amazing night together can Carter just go back to being friends? She knew all along Logan didn’t want more but she doesn’t want to go back to just friends. Logan is so thrown by his feeling for Carter he doesn’t know what to do. Read Landing the Layman to find out if Logan can try his luck at a real relationship!
Landing the Lawman is the fifth and pretty sure the final book in The Hills of Texas series by Kadie Scott.
Carter finally got her story and I love it. I don’t know if Logan is the type I would have put her with but it so worked. They started as coworkers, then worked their way up to friends and after several years they stop fighting the tension.
Logan is more than you expect and see at the beginning. A lot of what he does and decisions he makes all come from trying to escape a painful past.
I’m not sure which I loved more, the Hill family or the fact the live here in Texas and even have some time in Austin which is a city near and dear to my heart even with all of the construction we have.
Hope the Hills make an appearance in the future, but even if they don’t I know their stories ended perfectly.
Landing the Lawman is the fifth book in Kadie Scott’s Hills of Texas series. You can read it as a standalone but my personal preference when it comes to series is to read them in order as you will get so much more pleasure out of the reading by knowing the little bits and pieces of the background and repeat characters and …
Landing the Lawman gives the only Hill daughter – Carter Hill, the water rights consultants, and her biggest client Logan Cortez, a lawyer who has dedicated his life to helping small farms to protect their water supply! Carter has had to make some hard decisions in her life – needing to choose between the man she loves or following her dreams … she knows that following her dreams she would make a difference and being the only girl in the family of boys … anyone can imagine the pressure she has been putting on herself!
The writer gives us two people who teach each other about what is important in life while throwing them into some heated moments … you will be cheering with Carter when she is trying to show Logan that they are the two halves of a whole and you will be crossing your toes and fingers for one satisfying ending!
Landing the Lawman was a great 5 star read and book five in the Hills of Texas series.
Carter is a water rights consultant that works with Logan on cases. She has known him for years. Now that they are both single she is starting to see him in a different light, he is very attractive. While out celebrating after a day in court she gets a phone call from home that changes things for her. She gets a round of shots from the bar and gets flirty with the bartender, Logan sees this and something about it makes him jealous. He can tell that Carter has been different since her call and questions her on it, the alcohol makes her brave and she tells him what she needs at that moment.
Logan immediately excuses them from the celebration and takes her to his home. On the way to his house he tells Carter his intentions and she is shocked. He’s going to give her what she needs. Lets just say they have a heck of a steamy evening. Things are slightly awkward the next morning until Carter gets a call from her Dad, she has to go home to take care of her mother. Logan shocks her when he offers to go with her.
Can they keep they keep things professional or will they fall for each other?
Overall I really enjoyed this read. Logan and Carter were great. All of the secondary characters were great, Carter has a large family. The author does a great job of pulling you in with her writing and I can’t wait to read more from this series. 1-click and get started today.
Landing the Lawman
By Kadie Scott
5 stars
I loved this book! I have been fortunate to read a few books by this author so I knew that Landing the Lawman was going to be a good read and as expected I wasn’t disappointed! It was a fantastic western romance that had me turning the pages to find out just what was going to happen next. I loved Carter and Logan – she was a fantastic female lead, independent but also with a small side to her that did want a man to sweep her off her feet and romance her! Enter Logan! He may have been married to his career but there was no doubting the instant attraction between him and Carter when they met. I know that he definitely had my heart racing a few times!!!
This is the fifth book in the Hills of Texas series and can be read as a standalone but as I had read previous books I loved that characters from them popped up in this one. I would highly recommend reading all if these books!
Landing the Lawman was a wonderful romantic read and one that I would highly recommend! I look forward to more from Ms Scott in the future!
This is book 5 of this series and is best to be read in order to get to know the family better.
This is Carter’s story, the only girl in her family and how she now has her dream job after leaving a relationship and her job.
She works closely with Logan and after a burned relationship he is far from wanting a commitment ever again.
I really loved these two, they balanced each other well. And loved seeing the family again even if the reason they’re all close again wasn’t a good one. I loved watching the changes and relationship bloom here and am so sad this series is now at its end. Ive enjoyed them all.
The Texas Hill series can be read in any order, but as the siblings all get married it makes sense to read them the way the author planned.
Carter is the only daughter in the Hill household. Watching her brothers find love, Carter doesn’t regret her decision to leave family and love behind to pursue her dream job. But it’s a lonely life, has she left it to late? Well maybe not, yummy Logan hits all those buttons. An affair might be just the thing they both need…..
Logan doesn’t need love, it makes life messy, he needs to concentrate on saving the little farmers and their rights. And Carter Hill is the right person for the job, (she is a water rights consultant) he just needs to ignore her as a woman, a fine complete package.
With the arrangement of a no-strings affair, both Logan and Carter pursue it wholeheartedly. But when Carter’s mother is taken ill things change for both of them.
I’ve read all of the previous books in this series, and loved them all.
The descriptions the author gives is great. The attention to detail is very good. The characters are funny and the flirting is funny and very light hearted.
Both characters have been hurt in the past, so I see where both Logan and Carter have issues with trust.
I’d happily recommend this book.
I enjoyed the conversation, the banter among Carter’s siblings and their protectiveness of of their sister! I also liked the fact that Carter had the courage to walk out on Logan when she felt he didn’t trust her. That she eventually forgave him is something else. Her strong character and easy manner charmed me – it certainly helped to melt Logan’s heart.
My favourite romances are when friends become lovers and in this case eventually life partners.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Landing The Lawman is the 5th book in the Hills of Texas series by Kadie Scott. I have to hang my head in shame and admit that I still haven’t read the 1st book in this series although I have read books 2-5. I really must get around to reading the first book as I’d love to read Cash’s story.
In this book we get the story of the 5th Hill sibling, this time the one and only girl Carter, twin sister of Cash. Carter has recently broken off her engagement as she decided to put her career first, having spent many hard years working for her masters, then her PhD.
Carter helps in many cases for lawyer Logan Cartez and now that she’s single she’s starting to see him as more than a friend. Logan has always admired Carter but as she was engaged, kept their relationship strictly professional. Now she’s broken off her engagement what can the future hold for Carter and Logan?
Having read about her brothers, I was impatiently waiting for Carter’s story. It did not disappoint. I loved this story and was pulled in right from the first page. The interactions between Carter and Logan are so funny at times as she tries to get the stuffy lawyer to loosen up and enjoy life more. The more time he spends with her, she drags him more and more out of him comfort zone.
Will Carter be able to have the career she wants and have a relationship too? Will spending so much time with Carter make Logan realise that he has missed out on so much? I recommend that you read this fantastic book to find out. While you are there, I also recommend that you read the rest of the series too as it really is awesome.
This is not what I expected for Carters Story. This is better! I love the humor and attitude she has. I don’t think I could love this family any more than I do. They make me laugh, cry and just smile a lot when I’m reading.
Now I have many favorite parts of this book but DAYUM!….Who knew Lawyer talk could be so HOT! Logan knows just how and when to use those words! I don’t think I could be in a courtroom with him after that and not be *uncomfortable* (if you know what I mean)
Logan….Logan….Logan…I love how straight laced and focused you are! But the winds of change are upon you. It’s nice to see you start breaking your mold. That last scene with you and the family??? I would have been sweating bullets or peed my pants…but you hung in there like a champ!
As always I loved seeing and hanging out with all Carters family! The brothers are a hoot in this one. Glad their wives are there to reign them in.
Overall this his highly enjoyable! The writing is so smooth. I am captured from the first paragraph and I can hardly do anything else until that last page is read. Of course then I am sad it’s already over. I will miss this crew until I pick up a book for a re-read.
*nod to the author*
I LOVE the play on words with the title. Very cute! Also the jobs these two have were interesting to learn about. Thank You for these great stories!

Landing the Lawman is the fifth book in the Hills of Texas series by Kadie Scott. This book grabbed me on the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. This book can be read as a standalone, but I recommend you read the entire series. All of the previous books are fantastic. This is Carter and Logan’s story. This story is filled with romance, chemistry and witty banter that had me rooting for a HEA. I have really enjoyed this series and look forward to reading more by Ms. Scott.
Landing the Lawman (The Hills of Texas Book 5) by Kadie Scott. Ok I feel like I’ve said this a time or two with this series but hey I really mean it this time! This one was my absolute favorite out of all this series. Don’t get me wrong they are all amazing but this one spoke to me differently and honestly I can’t put into words why but it did. Carter and Logan completely captured my heart from page on of this book. Each of them pulled me so deeply into their story that I didn’t and couldn’t put it down. You can read these in any order but I do highly recommend them all because they all stand to give you everything you’d want in a story. These characters just had a connection I could feel deeply. They worked well together and had me completely hooked start to finish. It’s a well thought out storyline and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I highly recommend this book, series and author. Five stars all the way!
Landing the Lawman is the fifth book in the Hills of Texas series from Kadie Scott. If you’d like to start here and haven’t read the others that should still be possible as there is enough background info that carries through all of the novels.
In this one we get the story of the only Hill daughter, Carter, and the handsome lawyer Logan. Carter would like to find the one one day but in the meantime as she recovers from a heartbreak she swears to focus on the career that ignites her passion in other ways. She meets and works with Logan and eventually the two begin to feel a tad more than friendly feelings between them. Will the twists and turns (there are several good ones) be detrimental to these two ever getting a chance at love with each other? I enjoyed this and thought it was a light hearted quick read, perfect for a Monday morning! I look forward to seeing what we will get next from Kadie Scott.
