not normal Nora

I think a narrator can make a break a story. She did ok for the female parts but terrible for the male parts.

Good book. read 2 times

loved it. enjoyed the speed of the race and the details in her pictures awesome

Still a fan, just not for this book

Not a fan of the narrator's voice for the male protagonist.

The pace of the story seemed a bit rushed. Not one of my favorites from Nora Roberts.

Boring and Annoying

Unfortunately I spent a lot of credits stockpiling Nora Roberts books because I love so many of her series. I had no idea that she’d written such lame romances like this one. All fluff and no point. I purchased it so long ago that returning was not an option or I would have immediately. It’s boring and lacks any substance. The voice the narrator uses for the main male character is creepy and sleazy sounding. Don’t waste your credits.

Written in 1982

The Heart’s Victory has 2 romances, racing scenes, and crash scenes. Foxy and Lance’s romance was class difference, but they pined for each other. Pam and Kirk’s romance was forced proximity. Both Lance and Kirk are alphaholes who were very domineering and at times dubious consent jackasses. This book was written in 1982. It reads that way. That being said and knowing the type of heroes that were written during this time period, the romances were good. The characters were a little thin, but I did connect with Foxy. For this being Nora’s second or third book, it’s pretty good.
