Description In Pursuance Of 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.Be Specific About Books In Favor Of The MacGregors: Serena & Caine (The MacGregors #1-2)

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.
Really enjoyed the whole series.
Flannery and I were talking about my latest status update and what to do to possibly fix this. Our interchange went as thus: F: Well, what have you been reading?A: I dunno, I read halfway through the first MacGregor book but I had to stop because it was so bad.F: What do you mean? I remember kind of liking it. And plus, Nora Roberts! Can't be that bad, right?A: It was so bad that I looked up when it was published to see if it was written earlier in her career.(Some discussion about the
