Maggie Concannon se ha criado junto a sus hermanas en un ambiente familiar tan inquietante como el paisaje rural que la rodea. La joven, obstinada y visceral, encuentra un refugio contra la soledad y la amargura de su madre en la creación de piezas de vidrio. Rogan Sweeney, dueño de una galerÃa de arte de DublÃn, descubrirá en ellas el alma apasionada y libre de la joven. Pero ¿acaso tienen algo en común la chica de campo y el guapo, culto y elegante hombre de negocios? Nora Roberts books are obviously fairly formulaic but I still find them to be a good Sunday afternoon in the winter or sunny summer day beach read. I think her books are at their best when they are part of a series so she has a chance to develop the characters and story a bit more. This series is one of hers that I think works the best. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Fierce, independent and gifted, Margaret Mary Concannon is happiest living alone and giving her all to her art. That is until Dublin gallery owner, Rogan Sweeney, arrives on her doorstep with an offer that Maggie cannot refuse - money, fame, and his heart. Can Maggie put aside her troubled past to accept his love and give him her own?
Book #3 in this series was my first ever Nora Roberts novel, and I have been hooked on her writing ever since (over 20 years now). This re-read of Maggie and Rogan's story truly demonstrates Nora's skillful ability to weave an enjoyable and engrossing tale despite a less than appealing heroine.
Despite my soft spot for prickly heroines, Maggie is simply too cold and self-absorbed to be likable. For me, she is in possession of too many of her mother's exceedingly vicious and nasty traits although these are somewhat mitigated by her care for her sister and her love for Rogan.
Rogan is also problematic with his controlling and overbearing nature. Nevertheless, he too has a softer side that comes to the fore every so often.
Overall, it is precisely Rogan and Maggie's flaws that make them perfect for each other. Perhaps, this is the reason that their romance actually works, and their story is believable and entertaining. ( )
