Book Description

Series: Silhouette Desire | Publication Date: May 9, 2006

"I'M HAVING YOUR BABY." Savannah Claiborne's simple statement set off an avalanche in Montana ranger Durango Westmoreland's carefully ordered life. Suddenly, an unforgettable night of passion with the hazel-eyed beauty had turned into a lifetime of obligation for the confirmed bachelor. But Westmoreland men always honored their responsibilities, and leaving Savannah to raise his baby on her own was not an option. So he proposed and she accepted...with one condition: Theirs would be an in-name-only marriage. Durango agreed. For now.

4.0 out of 5 stars Durango...a smooth ride, May 23, 2006

By

This review is from: The Durango Affair (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)

I LOVE anything Brenda Jackson writes. Being the die-hard fan that I am, I patiently waited for "The Durango Affair." My last "fix" was "Taking Care of Business," so needless to say; I finished this book in about 5 hours.

However, I must say: Although the passion and fire was there, it seemed to be less of it in this book. Usually, Brenda will throw down on more than a few pages of hot passion and leave me hanging on every word.

I don't know what it is...maybe it's because Harlequin published a few of her last books, as opposed to her earlier books from BET and St. Martin's Griffin. For example, "No More Playas" and the "Madaris" series made me grab a pillow and beg for water.

Overall, "The Durango Affair" was still VERY good because it introduced Durango and kept us connected with all the other fine Westmoreland brothers and cousins. I'm looking forward to meeting Ian. If you haven't been properly introduced to the family, start with "Delany's Desert Sheikh" (which may be hard to get) and "A Little Dare."

Hopefully, her next book and those coming from Kimani Publishers will offer more of her oh-so-sexy and "it's getting hot in here" trademark. I'm anxiously awaiting her next book. As always, much respect Ms Jackson!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Man Is a Westmoreland!, May 14, 2006

A Westmoreland always takes responsibility for his actions, no matter what they are. This concept was drilled into Durango and his brothers from youth on. But how can Durango apply that to his current situation?

Savannah Claiborne has dropped a bomb on Durango's peaceful life - she's pregnant. True to his upbringing, there's only one thing to do - get married. They agree on a marriage in name only. Some agreements are meant to be broken. How long can these two remain married in "name only?"

Book eight of the Westmoreland series and Ms. Brenda is still going strong. As with all the previous Westmoreland books, The Durango Affair is a quick and enjoyable read. I'm ready to gamble with Ian!

4.0 out of 5 stars Just The Right Way, May 23, 2006

Brenda Jackson has done it again bringing the Westmoreland's man the live of their lives but not before a fight this time the member of the rowdy bunch is Durango. Savannah Claiborne never saw herself as the casual type but when she finds herself pregnant she knows that she must right the past and the only way to do that was to tell Durango about the child she carried. Durango was what anyone would call a confirm a bachelor so when he finds himself in front of Savannah and her delectation he finds himself in a predicament of no return. Durango knows he must do right by his child but at the same time he has to keep his heart under wrap.

Brenda Jackson takes you on an adventure through the mountains and shows you how a night of passion could make all the difference so the question is who next and what more could happen. Brenda is slated to drop Ian Westmoreland this summer so enjoy as she turns up the heat.
