The Stanislaski (what a mouthful!) Brothers by Nora Roberts is a wonderful book! I enjoyed every minute of it. In the book, there are two complete stories. One, titled as LURING A LADY is based on Mikhail Stanislaski, and the other, CONVINCING ALEX is based on Alex Stanislaski, who is two years younger than Mikhail. Both brothers are complete opposites, Mikhail being hot-tempered whereas Alex is an all-around ladies' man. ;) In LURING A LADY, Mikhail meets his soul mate when he encounters Sydney Hayward, newly president of Hayward enterprises and owner of a condominium he lives in. Sydney's grandfather recently passed away, and the company business was given to her. However lots of problems arises within the building (electrical and hydro problems) that Sydney isn't aware of, and Mikhail confronts her in her office. Sparks fly between the two, and soon the two find themselves attracted to each other. But something with Sydney's past will not allow her to have a future with Mikhail even though she does end up loving him. Read the book and find out what happens~ Just for your information: Mikhail is a carpenter and a famous artist that makes sculptures out of wood. It's very romantic. In CONVINCING ALEX, Detective Alex is working hard on a new case where two young girls were murdered. He decides to make a visit to the part of town where he was told that one of the prostitutes knew the two girls, and was to question her. He comes across a hot "blonde" and after a few questions he arrests her. But imagine his surprise when the hot "blonde" is actually a redhead and not a prostitute but a soap-opera writer. She's Bess McNee, a bubbly and funny girl who claims to need to feel what it is like to be a character so she can write it better. Soon she puts herself up to some danger, and Alex is there to protect her. But he can't seem to fight the attraction he feels for her, and soons end up falling in love with her. Bess, as well falls in love with Alex, but she's already had three engagements before that fell apart, and it's difficult for her to convince Alex that this time around is true love. So there begins the problem, and Bess must make Alex trust in her. The Stanislaski Brothers is full of humor, love and kindness. Nora Roberts is fabulous at making the reader fall in love with The Stanislaski family, they are all great people and fun to read about. I can't wait to get my hands on The Stanislaski Sisters. Enjoy!
