Five Stars

The MacKade Brothers are one of the best NR series ever. About four brothers who got into a lot of trouble when they were little and now have grown up. It kicks off with the baddest of the four Rafe who returns to Antietem,MD rolling in money and wanting to restore a former landmark and turn it into an inn and meets up with Regan who moved to town four years ago and sells antiques and thinks she can resist Rafe's charms. In the second book is about Jared MacKade a lawyer who has to inform new recluse Savannah Morningside of her father's death and is attracted to her, Savannah's used to taking care of herself and her son and has difficulties letting a man into her life. Each of the brothers are very likable and strong willed and so are the women they are paired with.

Love Rafe and Jared's stories

I have never been a big fan of contemporary romances, but Nora Roberts puts so much imagery and depth into her stories that it is hard not to like them. Unaccountably the best romance writer we have. Rafe and Jared's stories was full of passion and love that these two stories are the best I've read so far. I haven't been reading Nora for long, but I know that after these two, I will read as many as I can come across. Bravo Nora, for writing intense, believable romance.

By Far one of the best!

The MacKade Brothers are one of the best NR series ever. About four brothers who got into a little (Well a lot) of trouble when they were little and now have grown up. It kicks off with the baddest of the four Rafe who returns to Antietem,MD and meets up with Regan who moved to town four years ago. Then picks up with Jared the lawyer who has to inform new recluse Savannah Morningside of her father's death and is attracted to her.For those of you who have been disillusioned by Birthright and Three Keys-The MacKade brothers will reminded you why you started reading NR in the beginning. Each of the brothers are very likable and so are the women they are paired with.

What a knock-out!

I can't say enough good things about this book--it was just fantastic! Of the three things I've read lately (LIFE OF PI, BARK OF THE DOGWOOD by McCrae, and THE MACKADE BROTHERS) this one is the best! What's so amazing is that you usually get a great story OR a well-written book from an author, but in this case you get both--highly unusual for anyone in my opinion. I'm not usually one for this genre of fiction, but Roberts has outdone herself in this case. Don't be fooled into thinking this is some sappy romance--there's enough there for anyone, regardless of his or her taste in literature. I was down for the count on this one--a true knock-out!

Return of the MacKades

This is a re-issue of one of NR's best series, the MacKade Brothers. Silhouette Intimate Moments #631, The Return of Rafe MacKade, and Silhouette Special Editions, #1000, The Pride of Jared MacKade.

Classic NR at her best.
