Product Description

Product Description

As wild as the Wyoming frontier and a terror when spurned, Jessie Blair is furious when she over hears Chase Summers refusing her hand -- and vows to seduce the handsome drifter out of spite.

Enraged by Jessie's arrogance yet haunted by her beauty, Chase is irresistible drawn to the headstrong miss -- and into her troubles with the land-hungry villains who murdered her father. For his pride insists he tame the fiery temptress who toys with his emotions. And his passion won't be sated until the sensuous young hellion becomes a woman in his arms. --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tomboy versus Pretty Boy, Jun 30 2004
By Dakota "daxydakota" (Southern California) - See all my reviews
"Brave the Wild Wind" is the first in a trilogy set in the wilds of Wyoming. As a Lindsey historical romance, it doesn't disappoint on the passion factor. The hero and heroine have a love-hate relationship, but it's easy to see why they'd fall in love, and such a pleasure to watch them try to deny it.

Tough-as-nails Jessie is headstrong and has a fighting spirit that allows her to run a ranch by herself one minute and integrate with a renegade Cheyenne Indian band the next. Chase is the no-nonsense gambler whose devotion to his stepmother leads him into constant clashes with her daughter and ward, Jessie.

There's a lot of fun stuff in this book. First, the Indian scenes are a delight and include two fascinating characters: Jessie's closest friend White Thunder and the Sioux warrior Little Hawk. Jessie's mysterious illness is also engaging - how often do you see the heroine of a romance get obnoxiously sick all over the place? And Chase's little run-in with a robber brings to life a conflict over the ownership of Jessie's ranch. It is also nice to see the guy in danger for once, rather than the girl who needs rescuing!

More importantly, though, Chase and Jessie make a great couple. Their clashes energize the story and keep you reading all the way through.

The only real complaint I have is over what happened (or didn't) to Laton Bowdre. I also wasn't too fond of the last few chapters in Spain, but only because the situation with Rodrigo seemed a bit forced. However, these aren't enough to detract from the story, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

"Brave the Wild Wind" is a delight to read. Be sure to read its two sequels, "Savage Thunder" and "Angel," as well. "Savage Thunder" is my all-time favorite JL and the best of the trilogy, with White Thunder as the hot male lead.

5.0 out of 5 stars my favorite, May 10 2004
By A Customer
i have read several of JL books but this was the first-the one that got me hooked. I have re-read this one a hundred times! Yes Jesse is a spoiled brat but she is a very round character. the whole story makes me think of a romance story the way it should be written.

4.0 out of 5 stars If You Like Western Romances, Read This..., Oct 1 2001
By A Customer
This is one of Ms. Lindsey's Western romances. Raised by an embittered father who was desperate for a son, the heroine is taught a man's skills in ranching and defending herself. When her mother is allowed back into her life, she is introduced to her mother's stepson with whom she has a passionate affair. It is an interesting story set against the Wyoming frontier, replete with Indians that come across as real characters, not cardboard. Ms. Lindsey writes with such flair that most of her books are truly a delight to read. This is another one of them. I often have trouble with her titles as they seem to bear no relationship to the storylines.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fair, but not very good.
The best part about this book is the prologue, which is quite exciting. After that the book loses the momentum.

If you anything like me, you don't normally like Westerns. Don't pass up any of Ms. Lindsey's books just because of where they are set in time or place. Read more
