superb hot romantic suspenseApr 25, 2010
By Harriet Klausner Former cop now a private investigator for the past three months Duan Jeffries rushes from a case in Atlanta to attend his brother, the once "Holy Terror" Terrance, wed Sherri Griffin (see Temperature Rising). He muses about the family's rash of marriages as his sister Olivia recently wed Senator Reggie Westmoreland (see Tall, Dark and Westmoreland) and his father to his devoted assistant. He is happy for all of them as he feels they deserve the best and they got the best.
During Terrence's reception, Duan and Sherri's friend ER nurse Kimani Cannon sneak away to make love. As they get to know one another, he is appalled when she mentions to him who her four failed marriages mom is now engaged to. When he was a cop, he thought strongly that Edward Villeros killed his two wives, but could not find proof. He vows to save her mom from a fatal mistake while Duan and Kim fall in love; however with her mom's track record Kim rejects happily ever after leaving Duan to wonder if the last Jeffries standing will remain a bachelor.
This is a superb hot romantic suspense thriller that grips the audience from the moment Kim mentions the name of her future step father and never takes a breather afterward. The mystery of Edward is well designed so readers are unsure whether he is a black widower or a bad luck husband. However, the tale belongs to the lead couple as Kim has relationship issues that make Duan wary to confess she makes him whole.

HOT! HOT! HOT!Apr 19, 2010
By Wanda Guillory
"tweetyb."
Brenda Jackson's books are always Hot, but she has reached a new level of hotness with Spontaneous. From the first chapter to the last. You have to pry Duan and Kim apart with the jaws of life. This is a continuation of the Jeffries clan that was introduced in Tall Dark and Westmoreland. This continues with the Lust at first sight genre. The book is a quick read so I guest they have to be thrown together right away. The book takes and interesting twist with Kim's four times married mom who is working on the fifth husband. I love Brenda Jackson's books long or short. Brenda's stories are always satisfying and entertaining.

Spontaneous was hot...May 28, 2010
By booklover68 I was a fan of Brenda Jackson after I read the Players Handbook a few years ago. However, I've noticed that when she writes Silhouette Desire the main characters are similiar to other main characters that she has written about. The women are usually no older than 28 and are extremely sucessful and are either virgins or had one bad experience and never want to have sex again. Then the perfect man comes along and shows her what she's been missing. The man usually has some fantastic career and is determined to never marry for no real reason.
In this book Ms. Jackson wrote a story that was very different from the ususal. Although Kamani's age was never mentioned. I had the impression that she was at least 28 or older. She had a good job as a nurse and I liked that; not everyone has to be a world famous surgeon. I also liked that she had sexual experiences and enjoyed sex. There is nothing wrong with a women having past lovers and enjoying sex. Duan was fine and sucessful but not over the top. He had the career that he wanted and was happy. I liked Duan and Kimani because they seemed more complex and developed.
Both characters were very sexually attracted to one another and from the beginning of the story they steamed up the pages. However, this wasn't just two people who had just met hooking up for sex. Ms. Jackson explained that their attraction had been simmering for several months. The language in the book was more graphic than you would read in her Westmoreland series but I would not call it vulgar or too graphic. If you read erotica than this is still mild. However, if like more tame descriptions than this book may not be for you.
There was an interesting secondary plot that helped more the story along and the couple to form a deeper connection. The book was only 216 pages but Ms.Jackson managed to give the reader a fully developed story. I enjoyed reading this book.

SPONTANEOUS INDEED.......Apr 21, 2010
By Angelia D. Hollis This story was HOT from cover to cover.....Kimani and Duan was made for each other their ideas on relationships was what they both thought they wanted until that first spontaneous night that brought them together...This is a romance read but so HOT that you would have to look at the cover again to make sure. Mrs. Jackson has created a VERY seductive and VERY sensual LOVE story that keeps you wanting more. Keep up the GREAT work Mrs. J.

SPONTANEOUSMay 17, 2010
By Kendra Griffin
"Book Lover"
I READ THIS BOOK IN ABOUT 4 DAYS, AND ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT BRENDA JACKSON HAS ANOTHER GREAT NOVEL ON HER HANDS. SPONTANEOUS IS A GOOD TITLE FOR THIS BOOK AND LIVES THE WORD THROUGH AND THROUGH. KIM AND DUAN ARE TOTALLY HOT TOGETHER, SO I WOULD TELL ANYONE WHO LIKES TO READ TO PICK UP THIS BOOK FOR SURE.
