Rebellion by Nora Roberts

3.0

Well, I was a bit disappointed with this book.
But whatever, when you read a book by Nora Roberts you either like it or you think that it is far from your expectations.
Rebellion tells us the story of Serena MacGregor and Brigham Langston.
Serena/Rena is a fiery Scottish lass who, at the age of 8, wacthes as a bunch of English soldiers enter her house and attack her mother. From that moment on, she learns to loathe the English "pigs".
Brigham Langston is English and he is the best friend of Coll MacGregor, Rena's older brother.
Since the moment he first saw her, he was captivated by her incredible beauty and wild spirit, though she seems to hate him because of his English heritage.
But he doesn't let her sharp tongue stop him since he is in love with the woman. He sets his goal on wooing her and she, eventually, forgets her hatred and succumbs to passion.
One of the problems I had with this book was that, Serena, sometimes, was too irritating. Geez, the woman was head over heels with Brigham ans still, she kept denying her feelings and saying that she hated him. *sigh*
I get that she never forgot her mother's attack, but it wasn't Brigham's fault. It was not fair that she was constantly rejecting Brig only because he was also English.
Another thing that bothered me - there were times when the story just dragged on and it was a bit boring.
Apart from that, this is a good book for those who want a quick read.
