The Stanislaskis #1-3
The Stanislaski Series Collection Volume 1
From #1
New York Times
bestselling author Nora Roberts comes the first three stories in her classic Stanislaskis family saga.
TAMING NATASHA
When composer Spence Kimball sets eyes on Natasha Stanislaski, he’s thunderstruck by the intensity of his attraction. While the former ballet dancer has a fiery temperament that keeps most men safely at bay, Spence can’t seem to resist her. But he isn’t sure Natasha would be interested in a single father. He’ll do whatever it takes to tame Natasha’s fears…and show her how to love again.
LURING A LADY
Nothing in Sydney Hayward’s background of wealth and privilege had prepared her to take the helm of her grandfather’s business. Sydney learned the hard way that she could never trust anyone, but her tenant Mikhail is hard to resist. She doesn’t have room in her life for romance — but Mikhail seems to know exactly how to win her over...one smoldering kiss at a time.
FALLING FOR RACHEL
For the public defender Rachel Stanislaski, her work is her life. The last thing she needs is the hot-headed Zack Muldoon storming into her court room. Zack might not like it, but he needs Rachel. She’s the only person standing between his delinquent kid brother and a prison sentence. Zack is used to getting his way—but when it comes to Rachel he might just lose his heart.

Love this series.
I loved each book in this series. I had these in paperbacks and when it was offered for such a great price in a boxed set, I had to get it. Each story is complete and had a happy ever after. Both points of view are given too. I highly recommend this book.

Love Nora
I used to read all of Nora Roberts books and then found cozy mysteries. These books reminded me what a truly gifted author is able to do with a story. You become involved with the characters, the places and the story because the author brings them to life. There is a story, not just the same words repeated in different ways over and over again. While each book stands alone you learn about a new sibling. Will not wait to read more of Nora's books and you shouldn't either.

An entire world of Nora Roberts’ characters
I’ve read so many of Nora’s books and in every single one of them, the characters come alive in so many ways, entwined with each other in story line and life. It’s like there’s this whole other world, a dimension that exists solely for Nora’s characters, filled with folks from every imaginable corner of the world, so similar to the people that exist in our world that it’s hard to tell the difference between them. Even the mystical and magical ones!

First 3 Stanislaskis books
These books were written about 30 years ago and they stand the test of time With well written stories and great characters. My only complaints were the excessive amount of smoking including in restaurants and offices. There were no graphic sex scenes. So Nora, if you have extra time….cut out the smoking, add cell phones and keep the sex scenes the way you originally wrote them! Thank you for all of your wonderful books.

fun fluff
This family is fun and interesting, and then you get new characters that foreshadow to more family. I knew where this is going from the first chapter, but doesn’t mean I didn’t like it.

Romance
This is the Nora Roberts I love, sassy, funny,,romantic. In this trilogy, she captivates while still leaving the reader’s imagination to fill in the explicit details.

TAMING NATASHA - loved all books in the Stanislaskis series. Natasha's story is sad but she recovers after opening a toy store. She meets Spence and his daughter, Freddie. Rocky start for this friendship but all is well.
LURING A LADY - Loved Mikhail and Sydney. Alpha male meets stubborn real estate empire owner, who has issues because of ex-husband. This was my favorite of the series.
FALLING FOR RACHEL - Rachel is a Public Defender who is assigned to Nick's case and has to work with his brother, Zack, who owns a bar. Trials, tribulations, steamy, and great music!
