Love at first sight, October 10, 2004
This review is from: Stone Cold Surrender (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)
It was predicted that the Westmoreland children would all find love at first sight. That is not going to be the case for avowed bachelor, Stone Westmoreland, in STONE COLD SURRENDER. In this fourth installment of the Westmoreland series, Stone is following in his Uncle Corey Westmoreland's footsteps--a bachelor to the end. Uncle Corey has an entire mountain to himself and has declared it off limits to women. Both men are affirmed bachelors until the Winters' women step into their lives.
After a very sensual take-off from Atlanta to Montana, Madison Winters meets Stone. In a very short time, the two realize an instant attraction that simmers on the edge of each one's consciousness. Madison, a schoolteacher from Boston, is on a mission to find her mom and bring her home or at the least find out what's gotten into her. Abby Winters is acting in a fashion very uncharacteristic of a widow and mother in her daughter's eye, and it is especially worrisome because a man is involved.
Stone becomes completely enchanted with Madison, but he doesn't want to admit it. He likes bachelorhood and doesn't want to make a serious commitment, or so he thinks. When he realizes that Madison is somewhat inexperienced in the feelings of love and passion, he makes it his business to guide her through the discovery while helping her to locate her mother. Once they find Abby, their perceptions about love and life may change considerably.
Silhouette novels were always a favorite of mine in my youthful days, and for the life of me, I can't figure out why I gave them up, especially, after reading STONE COLD SURRENDER. Brenda Jackson is a great romance writer. Montana is not the most romantic place that I can think of, but add a couple of sensual individuals and Ms. Jackson's writing abilities and you have a wonderful and heartwarming love story that leaves you with a warm and fuzzy feeling all over. I feel like a kid in a candy store having just discovered a new flavor.

Oh How Sweet Surrender Can Be, November 25, 2004
This review is from: Stone Cold Surrender (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)
Brenda Jackson has definitely done it again. This is a long awaited continuation of those fabulous Westmoreland men. Stone Westmoreland, a writer who is going away to his uncle's mountain for a little R&R and to write his next story, sits next to Madison Winters on the plane flight. Ironically, Madison is also heading to the mountain, but unbeknowing they are both headed for the same destination. Madison is in search of her "wayward" mother, who decides to remain in Montana for a few weeks instead of returning to Boston. Has Stone's cold heart been melted by the lovely Miss Winters? Stone has said in the past that he will not become involved with a romantic interest, but has this flight changed everything?
Madison, also is not interested in starting a new love interest. After being slighted by her fiance' Madison has shunned any romantic notions. However, when she accidently touches Stone in the seat next to her, sparks definitely flies and Stone's coldness begin to melt.
There are several surprises in this story. Ms. Jackson has certainly kept us up to date on the Westmoreland family as well as the other twists involving the Westmoreland. I enjoyed this book and look forward to other stories continuing the Westmoreland saga. I know there is a "Storm" coming and I am anticipating it.
Definitely, keep writing, Ms. Jackson!

Trust Factor, October 31, 2004
This review is from: Stone Cold Surrender (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)
Brenda Jackson writes an exciting story on how a young lady has to come to the realization that her mother has the right to fall in love and so does she. Madison Winters feels that her mother is acting out of sorts to only find her falling in love too while not realizing it. While Storm ensures himself that he had no plans on falling in love to only realize that when he set out to prove a point it only lead to the proven fact that true affection.
As Madson and Storm endure the challenge of each others love they
both must learn to trust again and when the turbulence of
relationships come about only their love can hold them together.
