Summary: military romance at it's finest!
Review: Air Force Major Grayson Clark and Lori Rutledge had been lovers for a short, but intense, time a year ago. Now, after that time apart, they come together as a team to fly into a war-ravaged foreign country to rescue helpless children in an orphanage. Gray is a flight surgeon that is very much devoted to his career and although Lori still has feelings for him, she does not want to come second in his life. Instead she has devoted her life to helping children and is determined to work with Gray on this assignment regardless of their personal issues. Gray has his own reasons for not wanting to make a life time commitment with Lori in the past or now. His father had been a POW and that childhood incident had shaped his life. But now, as he works closely with the only woman he had shared so much with, he starts to question himself about what he truly wants in life and as he embarks on being relocated away from Lori, he also wonders if he can live with out her by his side? The title says it all.......Grayson's Surrender!!! Wow, I need to read this book again ASAP! Catherine Mann definitely has a winner with the first book in her new military series "WINGMEN WARRIORS". Her knowledge of the service shines through in her storytelling which is one reason why military romance is so interesting. Grayson's Surrender also has family warmth that touched my heart and the chemistry between the hero and heroine makes for an extremely exciting romance. It left me with wonderful feelings....what a keeper!!!

Summary: An intense military romance
Review: Air Force pilot and flight surgeon Grayson "Cutter" Clark fears nothing. Even the trip to war-torn Sentavo to rescue war orphans doesn't bother him. Yet when Lori Rutledge joins his crew as the NGO operative, she nearly brings him down. Now he must rescue the children, and avoid becoming emotionally attached to the woman he left nearly a year ago. The fates intercede, as Grayson gets another girl in his life, a young orphan named Magda. She quickly becomes a unwitting cupid between the two, and slowly Lori and Grayson begin to realize that the spark they felt over a year ago is still strong. Is this flame of passion strong enough to make their love eternal, or will the blaze die in a glorious sensual moment? GRAYSON'S SURRENDER offers a sweet yet steamy romance, with a hero to love and cherish, and a woman brave enough to face a war zone and a child who can't speak English. The minor characters also enhance the overall plot, from the talkative and often fun-loving Bronco, to Grayson's parents who have troubles of their own. Military romance fans will enjoy the pure intensity of the details, including a sudden decompression. The emotions flowing between the two and the pain of loss and injury strikes like a lightning bolt. It leaves one begging for another blast, a second helping of pleasure and a simple delight. Catherine Mann has begun her career in grand style, with all elements firing off without a hitch, so expect big things from her in future novels. -- Jo from Author, Author!

Summary: Stellar New Series!
Review: Grayson's Surrender is the first book in Catherine Mann's Air Force trilogy, and now I can hardly wait for November to arrive with the next release! Grayson Clark is utterly sexy and oh-so-heroic as he airlifts orphans out of a war-torn country. Complex characters and an intriguing peek at life in the military set this story apart, along with an emotional wallop. Catherine Mann is truly a rising star of romantic suspense.

Summary: A jewell
Review: I had the good fortune of hearing Catherine Mann speak at a workshop two years ago. She was dynamic, enthusiastic, generous, and dedicated. In Grayson's Surrender, it is clear those qualities transfer to her writing. Grayson's Surrender is a fabulous book that is so full of heart it is easy to forget you are not reading about real events or flesh-and-blood people. The plot is exciting, thrusting the reader into a normally closed world (military). The characters are so identifiable and compelling. Major Grayson Clark is a hero and a hunk. Of course, being married to a real-life AF pilot makes me biased. But there's something more here than a babe-magnet in a flight suit and Ray-bans. With his sense of decency and nobility, Grayson is a modern day knight. I look forward to many more books about the Air Force world written by Catherine Mann - because, in the words of my favorite pilot - "Chicks dig flightsuits."

Summary: Fantastic new series!
Review: Lt. Grayson Clark is fearless...except when it comes to relationships. But no relationship, no woman, ever affected him the way Lori Rutledge did. Even after a year without her, he can't shake the thought of her. And when they're sent on a mission together, all those all feelings flood back. Lori broke her own heart a year ago when she left Gray. She doesn't know if she can live through that kind of pain again. But how can she walk away from this one last chance with him? Catherine Mann delivers a fast-paced, touching story of rediscovery as Lori and Gray find what they were meant to have all along...love. I'm looking forward to the next book, Taking Cover, this November.

Summary: High-flying take off for a great new series!
Review: Some readers complain, tongue-in-cheek, that "Book One" in any series must be a myth. By the time they start reading a series they enjoy, the first book is always out-of-print and impossible to get...if it truly existed in the first place. So, as a public service to series-lovers, particularly those who can't get enough Suzanne Brockmann or Merline Lovelace, I want to give you a chance to get in on the ground floor of a hot new military romance series from Silhouette Intimate Moments, Wingmen Warriors. As the wife of a career air force officer, Catherine Mann brings a fresh, authentic voice to Grayson's Surrender, "Book One" in the chronicles of C-17 Squadron, whose motto is "Anything. Anywhere. Anytime." Doctor/pilot Grayson Clark gets a second chance at love with social worker Lori Rutledge when they take part in a mission to evacuate orphans from a war zone, and end up bonding with one little girl who needs them almost as desperately as they need each other. Gray is a sexy charmer whose committment-phobia is poignantly fuelled by his father's traumatic POW experiences and their effect on his family. Because of their past failed relationship, the sexual tension between Gray and Lori starts high and never lets up. Their journey to Happily Ever After is as beliveable as it is heart wrenching, when three wounded hearts risk reaching out in love to find mutual healing. A strong supporting cast will make readers eager to read more about the men and women of Squadron C-17. Fortunately, two more Wingmen Warrior books are in production with a fourth in the works. Be sure you don't miss out on this first one. And while you're at it, maybe you should pick up some extra copies to sell for top dollar when later Wingmen Warrior fans go searching for the elusive "Book One".
