FOR JARED, WOULD IT BE COLD PRIDE -- OR WARM BRIDE?

Jared MacKade was used to getting his way -- especially when it came to women -- but he was getting exactly nowhere with Savannah Morningstar. The lady was drop-dead gorgeous, and she had a drop-dead attitude that was wreaking havoc with his pride. And when a MacKade's pride got stepped on, there was bound to be hell to pay....

THE MACKADE BROTHERS: Looking for trouble and always finding it. Now they're on a collision course with love.

Nora Roberts’ style is so easy to read they make for a good palate cleanser after reading heavy suspense. Jared and Savannah’s instant attraction is expected but his chivalry is not usually the case in other stories. Angsty and somewhat wholesome this was a good read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good novel in a fine series
Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2013

The Pride of Jared MacKade is part of a wonderful collection of stories, all linked by four brothers who share common characteristics and yet are quite different from each other. Each is, fundamentally a good, dependable, and inherently lovable and loving man. Yet each is also his own man, with a central strong core of compassion, pride, dependability, heritage, courage, yes, and machismo. Also linking the men is their family history of the Civil War battle fields and forests of 1862 Antietam and a great mansion, imbued with an ancient tragedy and ghosts! Four handsome, nurturing bachelors, each with an inherent streak of male testosterone-laden sexism (which all absolutely deny) meet four women, all of whom carry the scars, experiences, and lessons of their own pasts, and all of whom are determined to create a future for themselves as strong, independent, and fulfilled women, willing to share burdens and lives, but unwilling to be dominated in the process. There is, thus, a similarity among the MacKade novels, yet it is the genius of Nora Roberts which, I believe creates the subtle nuances which allow one to differentiate among the stories and their character while simultaneously connecting the dots that make this series a cohesive unit. You really need to read all four of them, and do please make sure that you read them in the order in which they were written. The cross-references and flashbacks will enhance your pleasure (instead of just confusing you) if you read them in this order: The Return of Rafe MacKade,The Pride of Jared MacKade,The Heart of Devin MacKade,The Fall of Shane MacKade.

4.0 out of 5 stars Can a woman with long buried feelings of inferiority learn to love a man full of stubborn pride??
Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2013

Jared MacKade was an attorney. He had been married once to a woman whom he thought he loved. They never had that kind of marriage. She never wanted children. Their divorce two years later was amicable. He was happy. Then, while doing a favor for an out of state friend, he met Savannah Morningstar...WOW!! The attraction was immediate for him. Savannah didn't appear affected by him. She was used to being around men with 'that kind of look' in their eyes.
Savannah and her son, Brian, stayed to themselves. Even the 'gossip queen' of the town had no information about her. She almost swallowed her tongue when she had seen Jarrod in jeans and a t-shirt. She had been able to hide that reaction from him so he had no clue. Things heat up quickly between the two of them. Each keeping parts of themselves from each other.
Savannah had been rejected by her father and thrown out at age sixteen after becoming pregnant by a man who would not accept responsibility for his part. The father of the baby took off. Stand up kind of guy. She left the rodeo and managed, with difficulty and determination to make a life for herself and her baby. She had grown up and worked in the rodeo as a calf roper. After leaving the rodeo, she learned to make clothes herself. She had been an exotic dancer. She painted vivid color paintings, and she also was an art illustrator for children's books. All this without a high school education. She had left Oklahoma to start fresh somewhere else, where no one could make her feel inferior or less than she was. She did have a fiery temper...and she knew when and how to use it.
Two people, who based on outward appearances, would never have suited one another. Two different worlds. Yet, they do suit...and this is their story. Two stubborn hot-headed people with tempers. Lots of spicy romance.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Nora Roberts' formula #2
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2014
Verified Purchase
This is #2 in Nora Roberts' quadrilogy about the romantic lives of the 4 MacKade Brothers which I am reading as an interlude from my normal diet of heavy thrillers. In my review of #1 featuring Rafe MacKade I reflected on Nora Roberts' successful but somewhat repetitive plot formula of immediate physical attraction between the main characters but only a slow realisation that the attraction is more than physical.

With Rafe safely married off to Regan and a fully accepted member of the MacKade clan, Roberts turns her attention to Jared, the brother who became the town lawyer. The "strong beautiful female" in the formula this time is Savannah Morningstar - "She was tall - a curvy five-ten ... filling out a drab yellow T-shirt and ripped jeans to the absolute limit of the law. Her leg were endless." Sounds a good start to the formula.

Savannah is not your normal Roberts' female lead. She has part American Indian heritage and a difficult history because she left home at sixteen to become a single mother to Bryan. Savannah has battled for years for her independence and is unwilling to give it up - of course until Jared comes along - but then this seems impossible with a child of her own to bring up.

Did I enjoy revisiting the Nora Roberts' formula again? Yes and No - it wasn't as good as #1 in the series. As usual it had the sparkle of an author at the top of her game and was a little different because of Savannah's background. What remains in my memory is the strength of the MacKade family ties and how they pull together and accept the brothers partners and wives into the family. The next book in the series about Devin, the local Sheriff, may be a bit predictable as we already know from the first book that he has eyes for Cassie Dolan, whose husband is in prison for wife abuse.

Will I read the other books in this series? Probably because I am still intrigued to see how the formula pans out and because reading this book did give me the interlude I needed.
