Zane (The Westmorelands #25)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2013

From New York Times bestselling author Brenda Jackson—the first of a new trilogy starring three Westmorelands who are impossible to resist: Zane, Canyon and Stern.

No woman walks away from Zane Westmoreland. But when Channing Hastings does just that, it leaves the rancher reeling—and then she returns to town, engaged! Zane will do whatever it takes to show her that there is no man for her but him.

Let me start off by saying that I am a HUGE fan of the Westmoreland series! Brenda Jackson is hands down one of my favorite African-American authors. One of the reasons I love her books so much is because you get lost in the stories and you become attached to the characters. Feeling as if your experiencing everything they go through. That's what makes for a good book and author in my opinion.

Now let's talk about the book Zane. We come into the book knowing that Zane and Channing had a previous relationship that ended badly for both parties. For Zane it was the shock and anger that Channing had broken things off with him and not the other way around. Since that's how most of his "relationships" go. He'll always let the woman know that he's not the "marrying kind" and that he'll never love them. With Channing he did the same as well, but when their relationship went on longer than any of the others Channing thought that he had come to love her as she did him. Wrong! When Zane told her as much, she didn't take it well and shortly there after moved away.

All Channing wants is to find the love of her life and have a long happy marriage like her parents & grandparents. She thought that's what she was getting with Zane, and when he told her otherwise she moved away so she wouldn't be around the man who didn't return her love. Fast forward 2 years later and she's back in town on business and has plans on avoiding Zane while she's there. Zane has other ideas and confronts her so they can "clear the air" between them. During the time Channing is there she and Zane have a big fight and she leaves town again with a broken heart. Only this time Zane realizes that he loves Channing and goes after her! When Zane tells Channing how he feels she doesn't believe him. Now Zane must show/prove his love to Channing before he loses her forever.

Zane is a wonderful story that I recommend for all to read that love romance novels. I'm looking forward to reading the next to books in this Westmoreland trilogy, Canyon and Stern. I know that I won't be disappointed with either.
