Review: Good not great story lines. Steamy love scenes.

I appreciated the sub themes in this Steele series:  smoking, high blood pressure, abuse, obesity,divorce. I gave it a three because of some of the primary themes. Kylie and Bas Steele for example. Kylie spends her whole life learning her Dads business, resents Bas coming in to help run it, then turns around and sells it two months after her dad dies when she realizes she loves Bas and wants to follow him back to Charlotte. Then Vanessa's reason for not trusting Cameron in the last book was weak at best. His job? Also didn't like the ending of Vanessa Steele's story. It went against the character buildup of Cameron being strong and the controller of his world for the story to end with him huddled in a basement waiting for a rescue.  He's a Texan!  I Would have preferred a rescue scene or one where Cameron hid her away then grabbed his shotgun (you don't live on a 10 acre ranch without one) made a cell call to his friends and then went out and took care of business in a Westmorelands/Madarises kind of way. This series is very corporate America. Needs a bit more rugged maleness and excitement.
