The Macgregors: Serena and Caine

Reading the MacGregors for the first time, it is easy to see why Nora Roberts has had such a loyal fanbase from the start. As someone who started reading her books post-Silhouette, these re-releases are a treat. Roberts has a way of writing memorable characters and families that you can't help but love. It doesn't matter if you can predict the outcome - (yes, they will most likely get together by the end) - getting there is so much fun. In Playing the Odds we meet Serena MacGregor, genius and apple of her father's eye. She meets her match while dealing blackjack on a cruise ship. Justin Blade didn't want to go on a cruise - but when his good friend Daniel MacGregor pushes him to go, he does and is instantly drawn to Serena. This story has a great pace and as well as elements of suspense, which Roberts has since mastered. Tempting Fate continues the story of Justin and Serena as well as her brother Caine. We also meet Diane Blade, Justin's estranged sister. Caine and Diana's pairing doesn't have the same depth as Serena and Justin's, but has even more passion. Seeing the families come together is satisfying and the reader will look forward to the next books in the MacGregor series.

The MacGregor family is like no other. Many romances I've read immediately fly out of my mind. The characters just don't seem to stick. But Caine MacGregor and his father The MacGregor just seem to have capivated me. I can't get enough of this family. I hope Nora Roberts never stops unveiling new episodes to this wonderful continuing drama. Once you read this re-issue, you'll have to read the rest. I know -- because I did!

I'm a newcomer to Nora Roberts and the MACGREGOR clan. I recently read the MacGregor Grooms, Serena-Caine, and the Perfect Neighbor. I was so engrossed in the story that I just couldn't put it down. I enjoyed everything about the story, how they met, how they almost broke up, I just loved it all.I would really love to read the MacGregor Brides and Daniel-Alan stories. I felt like I was a part of the MacGregor Clan.Looking forward to reading more of Nora Roberts stories.Thank you Nora for writing such wonderful tales of romance.

If you're looking for great intellect you won't find it here - but it you just want to spend an afternoon with some characters that you come to love this series is for you! This book is the best one to start with in the MacGregor series - then read Alan & Grant, The MacGregor Brides, Winning Hand, MacGregor Groom, and finally Perfect Neighbor. You'll love these characters and wish that they never had to run out of relatives to match up. thank you Nora for letting us escape for even a short time.

Nora Roberts has done it again. This time around we go back in time and get to know the love story of Justin and Serena Blade and Caine and Diana MacGregor. Talk about fantastic! I fell in love with them just as easily as I fell in love with their children in "The MacGregor Brides" and "The MacGregor Grooms". No wonder their kids turned out so great! My personal favorite out of the two in one, was Caine and Diana's story. Man, what a great book. You'll love it. I can't wait til the next installment of the clan comes out, "The MacGregors, Alan and Grant". I've already ordered it even though it hasn't yet been released. I can't wait! Also soon to be released is "The Perfect Neighbor" which goes into the Campbell family and "The MacGregors, Daniel and Ian" which includes probably the most important story of all that of Daniel and Anna MacGregor, the heads of the clan. Nora must want to kill me with the anticipation. Trust me, you'll love the MacGregors!
