Chronicle Conducive To Books The Heart of Devin MacKade (The MacKade Brothers #3)
Lovely Cassie Connor married the man she thought was the image of her dreams, but Joe was quick to anger and abusive. Cassie endured years of brutal beatings, hiding the truth and the bruises from her friend, Sheriff Devin MacKade and from all of the townspeople, too. However, when Joe took his anger out on their two kids, it was over. Joe was locked away in prison and Cassie mercifully granted a divorce.So, Cassie and her kids started over, but their emotional scars took a long time to heal. Now that Cassie was single again, Devin wanted to let Cassie know how he felt about her, but she was still a little gun shy about any kind of relationship. Slowly, Devin started to wear her down. With patience, love and understanding, Cassie caught a glimpse of what life with Devin would be like.
Meanwhile, Joe was doing his best to be a model prisoner. His good behavior got him assigned to a prisoner road detail working just outside of Antietam. There, he bided his time, waiting for the moment when he could escape and go back to teach Cassie the lesson he thought she deserved.
Spousal and child abuse are tough subjects and I applaud Nora Roberts for handling these problems in the form of an inspiring and uplifting story. This is a testament to the strength and power of an enduring love, the kind that lasts for a lifetime.

Another good one. True to be told I was expecting something more, something more dramatic to close the horrible marriage the heroine felt conpelled to have vey young. But the story is sweet and you'll have to love another Mackade brother getting a family. On with the last one!3 -3.5 HEAVENLY DEVIN-LY STARS!Ok so this the third book in the series and this was 'the one' I'd been waiting for!Sheriff Devin MacKade has been in love with Cassie Dolan for twelve years and seen the abuse she has suffered at the hands of her husband. Now though, she is divorced, her husband is behind bars and he is ready to make his move. He knows he's got to tread carefully with her and her young children but it's time. But can Cassie overcome her fears and shame over her past and allow
This has one of my favourite heroes - and one of my favourite quiet heroines (although I usually prefer heroines with more direct gumption). Devin MacKade decided he wanted to take care of his hometown and he slowly but surely worked his way there, always aware of his and his brothers rough past and bad boy image. By the time the whole series starts he has been a small town police chief for years (I loved the amount of detail we got for that, not too much, not too little) - working with the
I picked up The Heart of Devin MacKade because I was interested to see his heroine, Cassie Dolin, who is introduced in the first book as a victim of domestic violence, get her HEA. Cassie married Joe Dolin young and stupidly. Joe is pretty much a good for nothing, who drinks too much, gets fired from even the most menial of jobs, and knocks his wife around for anything and everything. In the first MacKade book, The Return of Rafe MacKade, Cassie finally presses charges against Joe for battery
reread. 5 stars.this has been a firm favorite from the first time I read it. cassie is so internally similar to myself. and my heart breaks for both her and Devin for the time they lose. Devin is so wonderful. don't let the awful cover, or slightly dated writing stop you from reading this series. it's one of the best I've ever read.
Yes! I knew it! Since I read the first book, I knew Devin would end up with Cassie. The third book in the series was different. I was getting used to women with a strong temper, but Cassie was like a sensitive butterfly. Until the end. It's impressive how love can change a person's attitude. I hated Constance! Damn it. How can a woman be so stupid?! Or better said, how can a mother be so selfish and blind? Connor... poor boy. I totally understood his confusion and actions. He had a hard
