Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Hi,

Can someone please add the Westmoreland series for this author. Ms. Jackson is still publishing new books in it. It is a long series and the books on goodreads need to be numbered too. Thank you so much.

Sincerely,
Marina L.

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Wow, your fast. Let me check it out...


message 5: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Umm, does it take a while to update when changes are made like this?


message 6: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Yes...because of "caching," I'm told...it should update soon. :) If not, I'll cry. Or scream. or...or...

Some pages update immediately. Like this one: http://www.goodreads.com/series/list/...


message 8: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments If you look at Delaney's Desert Sheikh, scroll down...you'll see the series it belongs to...The Westmoreland Series is there...click on it, and you'll see the whole list that I got from her website.

I added it as a series, and I added it in the title...we were having issues earlier about getting it to show up in the titles of the books in another series, and it's been reported to support...but I've done it both ways, so it should *eventually* update, to show in the title, also.


message 9: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Ok. Also, did you add #'s to the books in that series by any chance? I use goodreads a lot as series order guides.

Only a single series shows at the top. That's not really a bug; that's how it works.

Then again, the first one listed is not a true series. It's an imprint, and we decided those don't get to be series. Poof!


message 11: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Cool. Though you missed a book in the series. The Proposal is part of this series too. Also, can actual #'s be added to each book. I know you put them by number order, still...=0)


message 12: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Rivka-not sure what you mean.=/


message 13: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Thanks, Rivka...I just pulled all the ones listed as the Westmoreland Series off Brenda Jackson's webpage...but it looks like she stopped updating it. I did pick up A Bride for Westmoreland, on another announcement she made.

I didn't add numbers, because it appears the series doesn't actually assign numbers. There are spots where she recommends books to read before and after each one, but no set numeration. I could be wrong, but I haven't found a definite order assigned.

Believe me, my OCD side wanted to pretend there was, and put numbers in...it really did. :)

Rivka, do your superiour Star Trekish google skills able to find a numbered list? I already tried wikipedia!


message 14: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments In my binder they are numbered. I have been reading them lately by #. That is why i ask sigh.


message 16: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Rivka, I went back and looked at the author profile...Stone Cold Surrender, for instance, is a Westmoreland...but it doesn't show up until you click on it and bring up the book page. It doesn't show any series at all...that was what I meant.


message 17: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Okay...added a couple of more that I missed, but Seduced by a Stranger appears to be missing in our database...and I can't find an isbn...maybe it was never published? I also found one "Tis the Season...for Romance" on another site that appears it was never published...it seems that the lists vary. I'm still not seeing a definite numbering system assigned by the author/publisher. I'm not comfortable assigning one, since I'm not confident I've even gotten all the books.


message 18: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Wrapped in Pleasure is a 2 in 1
Wrapped in Pleasure: Delaney's Desert Sheik\Seduced by a Stranger
Ravished by Desire is also a 2 in 1
Ravished by Desire: A Little Dare\Thorn's Challenge

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Beth-did you check the author's web site?


message 20: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Beth can you switch the 1st book with this one?

message 21: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments Just went back in and looked...looks like they're showing properly, now. :) I did get these from the author's website. If you have more, please include the link, and I'll add them.


message 22: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments I am not seeing this book on the list
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...

Can you please add it.One of the characters is J. Westmoreland. Thanks.


message 23: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Also, can you switch the 1st book with this one?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/65...


message 24: by Beth (new)

Beth (bethjustbeth) | 1568 comments I added The Proposal to the series...I'm not sure what you want me to switch...I'm showing the first book *is* Delaney's Desert Sheikh


message 25: by Marina (new)

Marina (marinal) | 70 comments Cool.Thanks.
My link has it as the 1st book in the series. Remember you said you can't mark each book with a #. Well this book when it was added to goodreads was signified as book one.=0p
Hope i am making sense.
