If You Decieve: Review

If you Deceive by Kresley Cole, is the third book in the series; MacArrick Brothers Trilogy.

Burning vengeance...

" Ethan Maccarrick was a heartbreakingly handsome rake until a nobleman ordered him brutally beated and his face scarred for a crime he didn't commit. Ethan's reprisal- bankrupting the nobleman and forcing his ecile- does little to appease his wrath. Ten years later, a haughty, mysterious beauty enchantes Ethan- the daughter of the enemy. At last, Ethan will have the revenge he's craved; he'll promise her marriage, seduce her, then cast her aside".

Bitter hardships....

" When Madeleine van Rowen's fami;y was suddenly plunged into destitution and dishonor, she steeled herself against further heartache. She never weakened, never trusted, until a towering scarred Highlander relentlessly pursues her, breaking down her defenses."

At what price forgiveness?

"The passion between them burns hotter than Ethan's fury, and soon he finds he can't let her go. But when Madeleine uncovers the truth about him, can Than convince her to accept all he now offers- when he once destroyed everything she had?"

I didn't think the MaCarrick brothers could get any worse than the first two, but big brother Ethan done took the cake and he ran with it!! Grrr!!

I am not sure how I came about picking up this series of books, I had never read anything by Kresley Cole, but they have been a delight to read, just what I needed for the rough week I have had! If you don't mind a steamy, read this is your series!

This is following suit of the other two and it is getting 5 stars!!!

Well done Kresley Cole!

If You Desire: Review

If you Desire by Kresley Cole, is the second book in the series; MacArrick Brothers.

He tried to run...

" In his youth, Huge MacCarrick foolishly fell in love with a beautiful English lass who delighted in teasing him with her flirtatious ways. Yet he knew he could never marry her because he was shadowed by an accursed family legacy. To avoid temptation, Hugh left home, ultimately becoming an assassin".

She tried to forget him....

" Jane Weyland was devastated when the Highlander she believed would marry her abandoned her instead. Years later, when Hugh MacCarrick is summoned to protect her from her father's enemies, her heartache has turned to fury- but her desire for him has not waned."

Will passion overwhelm them?

In hiding, Jane torments Hugh with seductive play. He struggles to resist her because of deadly secrets that could endanger her furhter. But Hugh is no longer a gentle young man- and toying with the fever-pitched desires of a hardened warrior will either get Jane burned... or enflame a love that never died."

Kresley Cole did it again. Another book that I couldn't put down and finished in less than 2 days! Another steamy read, that makes even the reader long for a Scot to come protect her, or torment her with his ways, ha ha ha!

The one down fall to this series so far is the use of a phase I can't stand, so it really is just a flaw on my part. The GD phase is used a lot ( God .... fill in the blank). I don't use this phase, I cringe when others use it, and even when I see it in a book, I have come to the part when I automatically just read " Gosh Darnit". I am fiece, huh?

Time to rate this book.... 5 stars!! Wit woo, for someone who doesn't give them easily, this book slut just gave two in one week!

If You Dare: Review

If you Dare by Kresley Cole, is the first book in the series; MacArrick Brothers.

Can he exact revenge?

" High in the Pyrenees, a band of mercenaries lef by Courtland MacCarrick wages war for General Reynaldo Pascal. When Court turns on the evil general, Pascal orders him killed but Court narrowly escapes and exacts revenge by kidnapping Pascal's exquisite Castilian financee".

Can she deny her passions?

" Lady Annalia Tristan Llorente despises her towering, barbaric captor almost as she does Pascal. Her inexplicable attraction to the Highlander only fuels her fury. But nothing will stop her from returning to Pascal- for if she doesn't wed him, she signs her borhter's death warrant, as well as her own."

I read this book so FAST and it has 349 pages, but it is done in just about 2 days, so that should lead you to my feelings on this book! Loved it!! It had it all... it was witty, love, steamy romance, fighting... what more does one need in a book. I will stay that this book does give some details ( if you know what I mean, nudge...nudge... wink...wink) when you are reading the romance scenes. I loved them!! HA HA HA!

I also have said in the past that I do not give just any book a 5 star, but this book is getting 5 stars from this crazy book slut!
