Jared MacKade tenía que elegir entre una mujer ardiente y su frío orgullo. Estaba acostumbrado a salirse con la suya, sobre todo con las mujeres, pero con Savannah Morningstar no llegaba a ninguna parte. Aquella mujer, de una espléndida belleza, mantenía una actitud testaruda que estaba haciendo estragos en el ego masculino. Y cuando alguien pisoteaba el orgullo de los MacKade, siempre se desataba un infierno... The Pride of Jared MacKade 3 Stars It is a testament to Nora Roberts' writing that this story was enjoyable despite the fact that the heroine is utterly unlikable and unappealing. Savannah Morningstar is quite simply a B*TCH and I never use that word lightly! Not only is she rude and obnoxious, but she is prejudiced and vindictive as well. The reasoning is that her actions are ostensibly a defense mechanism, but this is insufficient to explain her inexcusable behavior. Jared MacKade is stubborn and proud but he certainly hasn’t done anything remotely bad enough to deserve Savannah as his heroine. Even his obvious double standards when it comes to men and women don’t warrant this. The story of the civil war antagonists which bothers so many reviewers is actually one that I enjoyed. Nevertheless, it is underdeveloped and the connection to the modern day characters is tenuous at best. Hopefully the next installment will provide more of a link. I'm reading this series all out of order. I read three, four, and now two. Eventually I'll work my way to one. Hopefully it wont be as disappointing as this book. After Devin and Shane's stories I was expecting more and less obnoxious. Savannah was rocking one giant inferiority complex and was just rude and nasty to people who were being nice to her for no reason other than her own issues. She annoyed the crap out of me at the beginning of the book. She had her moments throughout the book, especially her childish stunt at the end, but she did get better for the most part. But when she did, Jared picked up the thread and became a barely tolerable slut-shaming idiot. I freaking hate that term but there is no other way to describe his stupidity. I kept hoping all three of his brothers would pound the ever-loving crap out of him. At least he was called out on his sexism by Savannah and his brothers. But at a certain point I didn't really want either of them together. Everything happened too fast, from love, to forgiveness. It jumped from one to the other, without showing how and why. They both acted stupid. This felt really different to the last two books. I'm also disappointed there weren't more scenes with all four brothers together. The last two books of the series were much better about that. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
