The Heart of Devin McKade

Synopsis

HE WAS THE ONLY MACKADE WHO MOVED SLOW

Sheriff Devin MacKade had always had his eye on Cassie Connor Dolin. Twelve years of trying to watch over her and her children. Twelve years of being the dependable friend, of seeing his beauty married to a beast. 

Twelve years of hell.

Now that was going to change, though he knew he’d have to be careful, move slow. But if Cassie came any closer, he might just toss her over his shoulder and carry her off! And he wasn’t sure either of them was quite ready for that yet. But soon…

Thoughts 

When was the last time you enjoyed a Nora Roberts book and thought to yourself, this (whichever book you were reading) could be the best book I've ever read? If you've never read any of her books and you are above a certain age i.e 21 and above, don't start. You've missed your window of opportunity to enjoy Ms. Roberts' books. Actually no, read her old stuff, the new stuff I've struggled with. I would say read The Chesapeake Bay Series, stay away from The Vision in White, they were awful. 

Has Nora Roberts has lost her place in the literary world? With many other authors co mung up who are more gritty and sexier, is she still relevant? She was the E.L James of 2000, now she's a bygone, a slightly fazed Boy-band member with the burly stomach with no relevance.I used to love her, I worshiped her books in fact, now she reminds me of every romance author out there with silly story lines and sillier characters with mind numbing dialogue.  


The Heart of Devin McKade was no different from her previous books, same old macho, good looking men and week female characters. This is the kind of book I would have enjoyed at 15 year. It left me wondering whether her books can now only be enjoyed by prepubescent girls on the clasp of adulthood.
