Falling for Rachel / Convincing Alex (Stanislaski, Books 3 & 4) [Paperback]

Nora Roberts (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 2008

Falling for Rachel Landlocked in Manhattan, rugged seaman Zack Muldoon needed a tough, no-nonsense lawyer to save his kid brother's delinquent hide. Public defender Rachel Stanislaski was not what he had in mind—until he discovered there was a lot more to the beautiful, coolheaded attorney than met the eye...and found himself falling for her, hook, line and sinker.

Convincing Alex When Alex Stanislaski mistakenly arrested daringly bold soap-opera writer Bess McKnee for soliciting, she decided the sexy detective was absolutely perfect—for her research and for herself. Now all she had to do was convince him she was right.

This review is from: Falling for Rachel / Convincing Alex (Stanislaski, Books 3 & 4) (Paperback)

I've been a fan of the Stanislaski clan since 1990, when the first volume appeared. But those old mass market issues are yellowed and cracking with age and re-readings, so I was thrilled when they were just released in a larger, easier-to-read format.

If you haven't met the Stanislaskis yet, you're in for a treat. The warm, loving clan enfolds all newcomers to its Ukrainian heart, and who can resist? This volume contains the 3rd and 4th installments of the family saga, though they can be read as stand-alones. "Falling for Rachel" has that crisp Public Defender giving her Ukrainian best to Nick LeBeck, a troubled teenager, and his fabulously sexy older step-brother, Zack Muldoon, a former sailor who runs a classy bar on the Lower East Side. Wanting what's best for the boy inevitably leads to what's best for these two stormy lovers. "Convincing Alex" has NYC's sexiest detective up against one of Nora Roberts's most wonderfully quirky heroines, a soap opera writer with a knack for trouble.

Once you meet a Stanislaski, you're going to want to meet them all - and you'll be well rewarded for doing so. These books are among Roberts's best, and since she's written almost 200 by now, that's saying a lot!

I've read them all I'm a big fan. Once you've read one book you have to read the rest, they feel like family and you will want to know what happen to them. Nora Roberts is number one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Falling for Rachel lacks BUT Convincing Alex lives up to the Nora Roberts Label of consistent excellence., August 30, 2010

This review is from: Falling for Rachel / Convincing Alex (Stanislaski, Books 3 & 4) (Paperback)

The Stanislaski series follows the mold of family loyalty and honor. This series shows the trials and supports of the family. I always recommend starting with the first of any series. This time it starts with Natasha...I suggest you buy the whole series. Yes, the series joins the "favorite" label in the Nora Roberts grading scale. The family and those they love excel in their niches.

" Falling for Rachel" is a quick read that, unfortunately, is not a magical journey book. You want to know her life and where she fits in the "family" but it doesn't grab your attention the way most Nora Roberts books do. The second book, "Convincing Alex" turns the need to associate with the "book" back on and is delightful.
