Book Description
A Storm's Coming...
It was all part of the plan. While his brother was in Scotland dethroning the Lady of Falgannon, Jago Mershan was headed to Kentucky. There he would do his share in avenging his father on the Montgomeries. Only, there was a monkey wrench in the works...
Just looking at his alleged enemy's granddaughter made Jago think of his classic black '67 Harley Electra Glide, a motorcycle with clean lines and sleek curves that promised the ride of a man's life. Asha was all woman--and the only woman for him. He'd bet she could go from zero to one hundred in the blink of an eye...and not even her claims of paranormal happenings in the diner she ran could put him off. He knew magic: He had a special name for the sights, the sounds, the tastes and smells of that perfect ride. There might be a storm coming, but it was one of passion, and together he and Asha would be...RIDING THE THUNDER
Second in the Seven Sisters of Colford Hall series sequel to The Invasion of Falgannon Isle

You won't be able to resist the books of this series,

This review is from: Riding the Thunder (Mass Market Paperback)
Jago Mershan is a man on a mission. His target - one Asha Montgomerie, the granddaughter of his family's sworn enemy. Jago, along with his siblings are each doing their part in avenging their father's death. There's only one little problem with this plan, from the moment he meets Asha, he can't help but think about a sleek classic Harley and wonder if she makes love Harley-style and how much he'd love to take a ride.
Asha doesn't know anything about the Mershan's vendetta against her family. She does know that she loves her little community and he's a representative from Trident Ventures, a big dollar corporation who has been making offers for both the horse farm and The Windmill, Asha's diner. Asha has a special fondness for the slow paced small community and has no intention of selling out. Though she does have to admit to an attraction to Jago that has her longing to take him for a spin. It's obvious that Asha isn't happy with Jago's presence in her life. For one thing he's befriending everyone he meets and the crazy jukebox in her diner insists on playing songs that seem to have a special meaning and apply to whatever circumstances are going on at any given time. He insists that he doesn't intend to settle down in any one place but then he contradicts himself by acquiring classic vehicles and caring for the cat who adopted him. The town itself is like a time capsule. Everything seems to have slowed or come to a complete stop and the citizens of The Windmill like it that way. Asha and Jago get to know each other and discover a mutual passion which is only overshadowed by Jago's knowledge of his reason for being in her life in the first place and Asha's bizarre blackouts. In those episodes, she revisits the `60's and the lives of Laura and Tommy, two young lovers whose lives were cut tragically short. What does Tommy and Laura's love story have to do with Jago and Asha? Will Jago be able to continue to aid his brothers in the quest to enact revenge? And how will Asha react when she discovers who Jago truly is and why he's so interested in her? You're just going to have to pick up a copy of this charmingly thrilling story to find out. Deborah MacGillivray won me over with the first book in this fun-filled series, THE INVASION OF FALGANNON ISLE so that I couldn't wait for the next book to be released. I'm so happy to tell you the wait is well worth it! Take a throwback town, a jukebox with a mind of it's own, a community full of unforgettable characters, a fat cat with no name, a tragic love story intermingled with a present day story and you have the makings for a book that you won't want to put down. I fell in love with the characters in this story and wanted a happy ending for each of them. Ms. MacGillivray's storylines do more than give you an escape from reality, they allow you to dream of a world where happily-ever-afters are possible and love conquers all. Beautifully done! Be sure to keep an eye out for the third book in the SISTERS Of COLFORD HALL series - A WOLF IN WOLF'S CLOTHING. This one will have Trevelyn Mershan and Raven Montgomerie's story. Trust me, after the little bit I read about them in this book, you aren't going to want to miss their story. Chrissy Dionne (courtesy of Romance Junkies)

another dazzling Mershan-Montgomerie romance!,
By Leeanne Grant "Leeanne 'Tink" (not New Orleans at the moment) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Riding the Thunder (Mass Market Paperback)
this is the sequel to The Invasion of Falgannon Isle. The first book was B.A. Montgomerie and Des Mershan. Des is the oldest brother who is bent on destroying the Montgomeries because he holds them responsible for his father's suicide. In a three pronged plan, Des went to Falgannon Isle, while his younger brothers Tevelyn and Jago went after other Montgomerie properties. Trev headed to England to go after Colford Hall, the families ancestral home, while Jago arrives in Kentucky to claim the horse farm once fraudulently used in the bad money deal that caused their father to take his life.
Jago is not has hard as Des. He's a few years younger. All the horrors Des lived through was softened in the Jago. Des was there working hard to see his brothers came through life with everything he didn't have. Jago recognizes just how much he owes Des. However, one look at Asha Montgomerie, B.A's younger sister, has Jago falling hard. He quickly loves the people that Asha collects as "her family" in Kentucky. Only as he falls in love with her and the strange little world she has built, at the back of his mind he knows Desmond's plans could destroy it all. In "Falgannon" the author offered up a quirky tale of all things Scottish. That flavor is repeated. Add in another weird kitty, ghosts, a crazy jukebox and a cast of wonderful secondary characters, Riding the Thunder is another heart stealer. I cannot wait for Trev and Raven's story.

Deborah MacGillivray is a supurb story teller!,
By Diane Davis White "Historical and Contemporar... (North Central Plains) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Riding the Thunder (Mass Market Paperback)
Jago Mershan comes to town to do mischief to Asha Montgomerie's business as part of a family plot to destroy the Montgomeries as their father was destroyed by Ahsa's grandfather. One look at Asha, however, and he has a change of heart. Asha Montgomerie is a young woman who takes care of her own--namely the people who live and work in her tiny community. Rather reclusive when it comes to men, keeping herself to herself is no longer an option when Jago Mershan walks through the door of her café, The Windmill. The instant attraction between the pair gives rise to much speculation by the locals, a comical crew of folks--signature characters that enhance Ms. MacGillivray's work--whose antics keep the reader entertained. Not to mention the juke box that plays oldies from 1964 over and over again. It seems The Windmill has a pair of ghostly lovers who 'hang out' in their favorite booth on occasion. And there is, of course, a nameless cat--a stray who adopted Jago, though the man refutes ownership until the cat gets under his skin. A story by Ms. MacGillivray without a cat is not complete. Ms MacGillivray has once again proven her prolific and undeniable talent as a story teller. Brava! This is the 2nd installment of the Sisters of Colford Hall Series! Can't wait for the next book!
