Loved it!! Julie Lence Ms. Lindsey's Stormy Persuasion is a fantastic read. I'm a James Malory junkie and any story including him is a must read for me. I was very happy to catch up with him and his wife, Georgina. I was also pleased with the way Ms. Lindsey included most of the Malory clan into the story, as they are all characters I have enjoyed reading in the past.Stormy Persuasion is a character and a plot driven read. The bulk of the story takes place on board James Malory's ship, as a good chunk of the Malory clan are sailing to the States for Jacqueline (James' daughter) and Judith. Mixed feelings I want to love this book. I just can't. There are eight chapters of what reads like the longest family reunion ever. Eight chapters of reintroducing almost every Malory in a head whirling quick fashion. Eight chapters that made me want to scream if I had to hear one more time about how they all met. What isn't spent on family reunion time is spent too much on James and Jack. Very little time is spent on the main characters and if you didn't read the about info, you might think this book is about Jack. This book seems more like a tribute to her favorite characters. I. Angela M. Mogin said Leaves you hanging. This book reads like the set up for the story of James Mallory's daughter Jack. The underlying love story between Tony's daughter and the supposed smuggler just doesn't have enough charm or information to carry the book forward. The book ends before Jack warns her father of the man who kidnapped her. Anthony Malory and his family really play bit parts in their own story.
