The Stanislaski Family is Among my Favorite Series

This book is a story about a dancer who knows what to do to make her dreams come true, a father who tries to balance what he wants with what is best for his son, and a young boy. Kate has done what she wanted to and now she is ready to open a dance school. With Brody's help in the manual labor Kate begins to make another dream she has come true. Brody's son is adorable and his character only adds to the story. I particularly appreciated the way Brody continually is aware of the example he must set for his child. I appreciated the thought Brody put into this relationship with Kate and how it might affect his child. This just added to the story and made it that much more believable.Although this book stands alone, I would suggest that if you enjoyed this book, you buy the other books in the Stanislaski Family series.

Excellent addition to the Stanislaski series

It was fun revisiting all the previous characters from the other books in this series. You start to feel as if these people actually exist and you are somehow apart of it. Kate is a primadonna ballerina. She gave it up to be a dance teacher in her hometown. She is going to open the only dance school in town and Brody is her sexy contractor. The minute she sees Brody at her mother's toy store, she knew that she wanted him and she would do anything to get him. Brody on the other hand doesn't want anything to do with her....at first.... he can not fight the attraction and they fall in love...of course..the story of their ups and downs in love is the interesting part and Ms Roberts delivers a lot of ups and very little downs. Thanks again Nora for a great read.....

I've loved reading all the Stanislaski books...

...and Considering Kate was no exception. Kate Kimball is returning home. She's opening a dance school in an old building which is sorely in need of renovation. Lucky for her Brody O'Connell is around to help her out. While he's renovating her studio, she sets to work renovating his heart. I loved Kate. She's a forthright, determined woman with a capacity for love that can't help but win over Brody and his son, Jack. Considering Kate is a fantastic read, and a great opportunity to revisit the cast of favorite past characters!

Very highly recommended!!

Professional ballet dancer Kate Stanislaski returns home to open the dance studio of which she's always dreamed. Tired of the harsh pace of dancing in New York, she's ready for the quite life. She didn't expect, however, to meet sexy Brody O'Connell in her mother's toy store almost as soon as she set foot in town. Nor did she expect to find their mutual attraction so powerful. Most men have taken a look at her delicate form and assumed romanticism and fragility. Seldom could they cope with what they really find--steel. Brody, however, is up to the challenge.A widower, Brody's one priority for the last six years has been his son Jack. Fatherhood had "kicked the stuffing out of the arrogant, careless and often reckless boy. And it had made a man out of him." Soon he finds himself contracted to do the renovation on Kate's studio, and when he goes to the building, he sees Kate dancing inside. She absolutely dazzles him. Kate ignores Brody's protests that he's not interested in getting involved, intuiting where his real concerns lie. Brody might protest all he wants, but Kate gets what she wants. And she wants Brody has her husband and Jack as her son.Rather than being put off by Brody's moods, Kate finds herself invigorated by the way he gets scowly and turned on at the same time--she believes it is both challenging and sexy. Kate gives as good as she takes, never hesitating to tell the director that he look like a pig, in the Ukrainian language, or Brody where to stuff it. She's accustomed to hard work, and doesn't shy away from darkened basements or the bottom line of a very expensive renovation, always keeping her eye on the goal. Indeed, Kate's fierce determination makes her character extraordinary and appealing. No self doubt for this powerful woman. I'm blushing to admit this, but CONSIDERING KATE is the first novel I've read by Nora Roberts. Yes, I know she's one of the queens of romance, but this reviewer seldom reads by choice, instead I read what lands on my desk by request. After reading CONSIDERING KATE, however, I hereby consider myself an ardent fan and intend to spend more time on books by Nora Roberts! Roberts' independent and spirited characters, the wonderful Stanislaski family, and her sparkling narrative voice make this book a keeper. Very highly recommended.

How Great To Meet Up With The Stanislaski Family!!

Considering Kate is a follow up from the Stanislaski series that Nora Roberts wrote a few years back (but is now re-released). Kate Kimball, the daughter of Natasha and Spencer (from Taming Natasha), is a ballet dancer, who has come home to open a dance school. Brody O'Connell is the contractor who fixes up the building for Kate's school. Kate and Brody automatically hit it off, but Brody is leary of a relationship because he is a widow with a 6 year old son, Jack, to take care of. Kate is flirtatious and pushes Brody to take her out, Brody on the other hand is trying to resist her, although he wants her. In Considering Kate all the characters are winners. You will fall head over heels for little Jack, not too mention the rest of the family. Considering Kate is a great read, and a great follow up. I really got into the whole family and at times found myself laughing and tearing up, which I think a good book should make a person do!
