Review: MacRieve (Immortals After Dark #13) By Kresley Cole

MacRieve (Immortals After Dark #13)

By Kresley Cole

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



“So what are you going to wear to the apocalypse? I’m thinking something sparkly and transfixing.”-Nix
Hot and Hotter!!!Finally...

I always wanted to learn more about them!

I loved, loved, loved MacRieve (although he was a real d*** some times)! Tortured by the ghosts of his past and recently captured by the Order, MacRieve couldn't believe his bad luck when he found out that his mate is not only Webb's daughter by a succubus as well.

The only thing that Chloe (aka baby T-Rex) ever wanted was to participate in the Olympic's (women's soccer). But fate has other plans for her! Kidnapped, auctioned by witches and sold to the Pravus, Chloe is saved by MacRieve.Doing everything she can in order to survive, Chloe decides to stick with MacRieve until things calm down..

But an unexpexted incident threatens to tear them apart!

There was a time that MacRieve wished his mate was immortal, now he wishes she was dead...

A book bound to capture you from its first page till the last.

In this book there's also a chapter from Munro's POV where we get to meet his mate (I'm so so sorry for him) and let just tell you that their first encounter is not exactly ideal.

Here's a spoiler:

"I will do anything tae save you.” Even become a slave myself. “You’re my mate, little one.” -Munro

And there's also an excerpt from.........Endless Knight (you guessed right), I really can't wait to read it!!!

Here's a spoiler:

“Cannibals...If this is their trap, they’re goan to come running. We got to go, bébé. Fast.” -Jack

Absofuckinglutely Recommend it!!!

Synopsis:

A Beast In Torment

Uilleam MacRieve believed he’d laid to rest the ghosts of his boyhood. But when a brutal torture revives those ancient agonies and destroys his Lykae instinct, the proud Scot craves the oblivion of death. Until he finds her—a young human so full of spirit and courage that she pulls him back from the brink.

A Beauty In Chains

Seized for the auction block, Chloe Todd is forced to enter a terrifying new world of monsters and lore as a bound slave. When offered up to creatures of the dark, she fears she won’t last the night. Until she’s claimed by him—a tormented immortal with heartbreaking eyes, whose touch sets her blood on fire.

A Full Moon On The Rise

With enemies circling, MacRieve spirits Chloe away to the isolated Highland keep of his youth. But once he takes her to his bed, his sensual mate becomes something more than human, evoking his savage past and testing his sanity. On the cusp of the full moon, can he conquer his worst nightmare to save Chloe . . . from himself?

Also, if you're worring about future books, read what Kresley said:

Don’t worry—Nix, Lanthe, and Furie will all get books! But Uilleam’s story fits better into the overall Accession timeline (plus my editor is jonesing for poor Uilleam, who we last saw escaping from the facility.) More news soon!

Bound in Death By Cynthia Eden

Bound In Death (Bound #5)

By Cynthia Eden

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




“Looks like two hundred years didn’t change the way that she felt about you, memory or no memory.”-Ryan

Bound In Death is the fifth book in the Bound series.This book tells the story of Alerac and Keira (aka Jane).

Keira is a vampire-to-be princess locked away in a castle waiting to turn.After the brutal murder of some werewolves, Alerac promises to avenge them and they only way to take out his target is through Keira.But neither of them expected what could happen.

Two hundred years later Alerac still remembers everything while Jane remembers nothing.How that's possible???Duh...Witches!!!Alerac will do anything to protect his mate while Jane will do anything to find out the truth!

But the past won't let them be.Old and new enemies surface determined to tear them apart.

A worth reading book with strong characters, both main and secondary ones.I especially liked Ryan, Jane's brother and Zoe, a werewolf from Alerac's pack who cannot shift.I would love to read more of them.Perhaps a novela?Yeah...

The book had a nice flow and there wasn't a moment that I got lost.Bound In Death can be read as a stand alone book as well.

Absolutely recommended to all vampire-werewolf lovers!!!

Blurb:

She can’t remember him…
He can never forget her.

For over two hundred years, alpha werewolf Alerac O’Neill has been searching for his mate, Keira McDonough, a woman who was taken from him and imprisoned by a dark vampire master. He’s hunted for her, endlessly, using vampire blood to extend his life. He has become a vicious predator, feared by all the supernaturals. His hold on reality seems to slip more each day because he is consumed by her.

Only…the woman he discovers in a small Miami bar isn’t the Keira that he remembers. In fact, this woman doesn’t remember anything. She calls herself Jane Smith, and she has no memory at all of Alerac—or of her own past.

Now that she’s been found, Alerac knows that his enemies are going to start closing in on her. Jane may try to act human, but she’s not. She’s a pureblood vampire princess, incredibly powerful and incredibly valuable. His enemies want to use her, her enemies want to destroy her, and Alerac—he just wants her.

If he can’t make her remember him, then Alerac has to seduce Jane into loving him once again. Because now that he’s found her, he’ll fight hell—and every sadistic vampire that stalks the night—in order to keep her safe at his side.

Some bonds go deeper than the flesh. Some go beyond life. Beyond death.

Jane will soon learn that a werewolf’s claiming…is forever.

What I Read This Week

This week has been so hard on me.Firstly,I got sick and thus I had a difficulty keeping up with my h/w and I didn't have much free time to read or post anything.Nevertheless,here's what I read so far..

The book I Loved:

Wounded

By Jasinda Wilder

My Rating: 5 Stars

Favourite Quote:
"A man who takes a woman to dinner first, takes her to drink, tells her she is beautiful, pays her father to arrange a marriage to her… this is paying for sex. It is cloaked in custom and tradition, but the result – sexual domination of the man over the woman – is still prostitution.I am not willing in this. I did not choose this life. I do what I must to survive. It is this, or starve.”
My Opinion:
This book tells the story of a girl who has lost everything because of war.She has has nothing and no one to take care of her.The only thing she can do in order to survive is sell her body.
This book opened my eyes and forced me to see what war does to people.It made me realise that when you have nothing you do whatever you can to saty alive.You take decisions you wouldn't otherwise take,you resort to actions you wouldn't otherwise do.It is such an emotional book.I want to say more but I don't want to spoil anything.It's a book worth-reading.

Blurb: Click here.

Also,

The previous week I discover two series Fast Track series and Bloodrunners series.So,I begun reading the books,which of cource I haven't finished reading yet but I definitely will.

Bloodrunners series:

Last Wolf Standing (Bloodrunners #1)

By Rhyannon Byrd

My Rating: 4 Stars

Favourite Quote-Scene:
“With an utterly foreign sense of desperation, he did something that he’d never, in all his thirty-three years, thought he would do. He tripped her.”
My Opinion:
I laughed so hard at this particular scene.It was so hilarious seeing a confident,grown up man resorting to such actions.I really enjoyed reading it.It was fast paced,had many ups and downs,a tortured and very stubborn hero.It's a well written book and I absolutely recommend it.
Blurb: Click here.

Last Wolf Hunting (Bloodrunners #2) By Rhyannon Byrd
My Rating 3 Stars
My Opinion:
It's the second book in the series.I didn't quite like it.The main characters were so stubborn and pigheaded.They could have been mates all along but there was no trust between them and they didn't discuss their "problems".I also believe that the end was a little "overstretched".

I'm currently reading book 3 & 4.

Fast Track series

Flat-Out Sexy (Fast Track #1)

By Erin McCarthy

My Rating: 4 Stars

Favourite Quote:
“Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit..." Suzanne”
My Opinion:
This is a wonderful book about a woman moving on after her husband has died.I found Elec so sweet and understanding and there was a scene where Tamara's children were sick and he went to help her take care of them.It's was epic...(sigh).Definitely recommend to those who love contemporary romance...

Blurb: Click here.

Hard and Fast (Fast Track #2)

By Erin McCarthy

My Rating: 2 Stars

Favourite Quote:
“Me? I'm being ridiculous? You're the one flirting for your thesis. What the hell kind of degree is that anyway? A doctorate of dick tease?”
My Opinion:
This book was so ridiculous!!!I felt that Imogen,the heroine,was just repeating everything that was said with more complex vocabulary.She was such a show off and very naive.Ty on the other hand, was honest about himself and did everything to make her happy.He was so adorable....

Blurb: Click here.

Hot Finish (Fast Track #3)

By Erin McCarthy

My Rating: 4 Stars

Favourite Quote:
“And everyone is always saying that marriage is really hard and takes a lot of work. But the thing is, when you know that you love someone, those things don’t matter. You have to push all the everyday things and the outside world away, and just enjoy knowing that this is the man who has the chest your head is meant to lie on.”
My Opinion:
This was such a great book.It was funny,it had a nice flow and I really liked all this getting-back-my-soon-to-be ex-wife.Cause although they both thought that they were devorced the truth was that they were still married.So when they found out the truth Ryder "convinces" Suzanne to give their marriage a chance.Dedinitely recommended...

Howl For It By Cynthia Eden And Shelly Laurenston

Howl For It

B y Shelly Laurenston , Cynthia Eden

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

An amazing anthology including stories by Cynthia Eden and Shelly Laurenston.

Like A Wolf With A Bone By Shelly Laurenston

“This one’s not in here for the fight,” the deputy explained.
“She’s not?”
“She was trying to stop it.”
“Then why—”
“She’s in here for doing a hundred and ten in a thirty mile per hour zone.”
“I was just . . .Seeing what your car could do.”
“And it can do a hundred and ten?”
“Apparently.”

I really liked Dee-Ann's parents story.Eggie Ray Smith and Darla Mae are the exact opposite.But you know what the say about opposite...

Darla is on vacation.But nothing goes as it should have.After being attacted by humans and rescued by a wolf,Eggie,she ends up in Smith territory.There she gets close to Eggie,a very misunderstood wolf.I adore him.After spending time together they realise that they are meant to be together and there their adventoure begins.

I really liked the fact that they both trust each other so much.It was easier to read the story knowing that there was mutual trust and love between them.Moreover,it was an incredible story filled with humor,action and lots of fights.

Wed Or Dead By Cynthia Eden

"Thanks. I’d prefer to die only once today.”
“Only you didn’t die!Dammit, I was crying over you.”
“And that was really sweet,I was touched that you cared—”
She tried to grab him through the cage bars.

A short novela about a wolf shifter and a hunter.

After Kayla's family was slaughtered by a wolf,she promished to avenge them and so became a wolf hunter.But she never expected this...

Her next assignment is to get close to an Alphain order to kill him. Gage is an Alpha who will stop at nothing to save his pack.That is until he meets Kayla.He knows her plan from the beginning but that doesn't stop him from taking what he wants.

A stupendous story with amazing characters bound to enthrall you...

I totally recommend Howl For It and I'm looking forward to reading more books by those two extraordinary talented authors.

Blurb:

"Like A Wolf With A Bone" by Shelly LaurenstonQuiet little Darla Lewis couldn't be happier when the most-feared member of the South's rowdiest pack kidnaps her. A girl gets real tired of being overprotected by her own shifter family, and there's nothing like an oh-so-big bad wolf to start a pack feud, unleash her instincts--and have her surrender however and whenever she wants. . .

"Wed Or Dead" by Cynthia Eden
Gage Ryder knew his human bride had a wild side. But spending their honeymoon night on the run from hunters out to finish him and his pack is sure not the kind of fun he was looking forward to. No problem--Gage will do whatever it takes to lay bare Kayla's secrets and find the truth. If he can keep from being captured by his own seductive game. .

Fear The Darkness By Alexandra Ivy

Fear the Darkness  (Guardians of Eternity #9)

By Alexandra Ivy

My rating: 5 of 5 stars




“You’re, without doubt, the worst liar I’ve ever met.”

“Hey.”

“Trust me, that’s a compliment, pet,”-Caine and Cassie

Fear the Darkness is the ninth book in the Guardians Of Eternity series.I wanted to read Cassie and Caine's story for so long a time.

Cassie is one of the four were quadruplets.Each sister has finally found happiness and it's time for Cassie to do so as well.Once a mere cur,Caine,has now become a pure blood were.Actually,this happend in Beyond The Darkness so I would suggest you read all the former books before reading this one.

After escaping from the cave Cassandra was being held,she and Caine head to Las Vegas where one of her visions,oh did I mention she's a prophet?,showed her that something important will occur.When their task there is completed they leave and fall right into a well organised trap.

I loved Cassie and Caine's story.Although it wasn't as humorous as the previous books were and I have to add that this book needed more Levet.In Fear the Darkness we only see him four or five times.But in the end he is the one that will save them all from the demon Lord.So why should you read it?The answer is simple.Lots of sexy vampires,werewolves,witches and one to-die-for hilarious gargoyle.

I'm looking forward to reading Darkness Avenged the tenth book in the series,Santiago and Nefri's story,available in June 1st 2013.

Blurb:

Her Visions Lead Her To Danger

Beautiful Cassandra is a Were, a prophet both vulnerable and defiant, blessed with visions that portend the fate of the world. A rare and delicate creature, Cassie must be protected at all costs. Enter Caine, a powerful cur turned pureblooded Were whose recent tangles with a demon lord have left him in serious need of redemption. Caine is duty-bound to keep Cassie out of danger—and that means resisting his potent urge to seduce her.

And Only He Can Save Her

As Cassie's mysterious visions lead them in and out of danger, Caine believes he has found his true mate, the woman with whom he is bound for all eternity. Cassie is both charmed and frightened by Caine's magnetism, and unsure if he—or her feelings for him—can be trusted. But Cassie can't afford to doubt Cain now. A deadly enemy bent on destruction is closer than they realize—and only they can keep chaos from ruling the world.
