This is the second the Brenda Jackson's trilogy about the Madaris brothers: Justin, Clayton and Dexter. Doctor, lawyer and no, not an Indian chief -- but a geologist. He is the second of the Madaris brothers. According to the youngest brother, Clayton, Dex is a member of the "pain and suffering club." Four years before the book opens, Dexter pursued Caitlyn in a whirlwind courtship that resulted in a marriage so quick that their families weren't able to attend. She was 21; Dexter was 32. When Caitlyn's manipulative father has a heart attack, she's torn between a father who has raised her since her mother's death and her new husband. She chooses her father and refuses to accompany Dex to Austrialia, where he's been sent on a job. When Dex finally decides to go get his young bride, he gets divorce papers and Caitlyn's wedding ring in the mail. The marriage is over. OR IS IT? Four years later, Caitlyn's father makes a death bed confession. He's never had the divorce papers filed. Caitlyn and Dex are still marriage. Dex is in for another shock when he meets Jordan, the current center of Caitlyn's life. The book abandons what could be an easy formula and carefully develops the characters. This is important to Brenda Jackson's work because the characters make cameo appearances in her other novels. Humor is another important part of Jackson's style. The seduction scene between two minor characters, Trevor Grant and Corinthians Avery, is a classic. The tension between the two extend beyond this novel into Jackson's follow-ups. There are plans for them to have their own story. Devoted Brenda Jackson readers can hardly wait.
