Montgomery / Taggart Series Reading Order
🟡 Mostly Standalone · Start Anywhere
Mostly standalone stories with recurring characters in a shared setting.
The Montgomery / Taggart series does not need to be read in order because each novel tells a complete romance with its own beginning, conflict, and resolution. The primary continuity comes from the recurring Montgomery and Taggart family lines, whose members and descendants appear throughout the series. References to earlier couples and family history add depth, but the central story in each book stands on its own. Readers who pick up a later installment will not be confused, though they may miss some context behind family relationships and recurring names.
