Description During Books The MacGregors: Serena & Caine (The MacGregors #1-2)
Both of these books start out with the strong-willed heroine being "unwilling" to fall in love with the main dude. The main dude basically stalks the girl- sending her gifts after repeatedly being asked not to, showing up around them, arranging things so that they'll be bound by business, "forcefully kissing" her even after she's said no, and so on- wearing her down until, apparently, sheer animal lust or something takes over, and then she realizes that not only is this dude hot, he's perfect for her. So, basically- the guy acts like a creepy asshole stalker/rapist/circa 1950s male until she realizes that her own dreams and ideas and reasons for not being with him are nothing compared to his ultimate hotness. Normally I think pretty highly of Nora Roberts- one of my faves for the genre- but I can't stand yet another of these "stalker wins" books. MacGregors = fail.Rating Based On Books The MacGregors: Serena & Caine (The MacGregors #1-2)

I have so many of these Nora Roberts collections on my shelves that I've finally gotten around to reading. Not sure if they were best left unread to be honest, but read this one I did. Though it seems like the collection was published more recently, the books were both originally written in the 80's and I really felt that this showed. They were dated and typical of the time. The men were not dominating or forceful, they were aggressive and didn't tend to understand the word 'No'. UnfortunatelyI'm going to love this series.....

Playing The Odds (Serena & Justin): 4 STARS!Tempting Fate (Caine & Diana): 5 STARS!I enjoyed these two books so much. I became completely immersed in this family. Their bond, their love for one another. It was wonderful and refreshing. My first read by Nora Roberts and it sure won't be my last! I'm ready for Alan's story.
What she says:https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...The first book is about a Stalker and worse she's working and can't really tell him off. Then there's no that means yes.I skim read book 2, boring and unengaging.
I just re-read this book - I hadn't read it since maybe high school or early college, and I loved it just as much!
Really enjoyed the whole series.
