Re-read: 17.10.2020 DNF at 47%: The book centers around healer Alyssa was 16 when she took the many responsibilities of being Westcott’s wisewoman. Now 7 years later she's starting the resent the rope hiding her from the world, and from Dillon, the Earl of Westcott, the man whom she has admired and loved. The re-read started out alright and just that. And then when I hit the 47% (chapter 10) I just didn't feel it anymore. It didn't feel right with (view spoiler)[how fast Dillon loved Alyssa just days after finding out how she looks beneath the rope. (hide spoiler)] I just lost interest after that. Also, I think Dillon wasn't alpha male enough for me to enjoy this book - as you know me, the male character is the most important character in a book for me. Overall I won't rate it anew as I didn't finish it, I'll just leave it as it were.

I liked Andre de Leon and Lucifer was...interesting. Though Gabrielle Fiori annoyed me most of the time. I'm sure I'll continue with the series, however I'm not sure if I'll like it. This book really had a potential to be good, but Gabrielle as a main character destroyed things for me and how she reacted to something and believed everything that was said to her. But like it said, I liked Andre de Leon and Lucifer, so I'll continue just for them ;)...more

Max is quite perfect and Nina isn't so annoying as KA's other female characters (though her not talking to Max is annoying). That being said, the book is awfully long, as in; it's too long, and the insta-love is not for me. I mean, a week in and they are talking about moving in. Well, not talking, telling. Overall, I don't regret reading it, but it's too long with little happening in it. [image] Re-read: 19.02.2017 Before you ask: I have no idea why I ended up re-reading this book. Seriously! I liked it the first time, but I didn't love it, so I don't understand why I suddenly found myself starting reading this one... I mean, Nina Sheridan (36) is cute and all, and I find Holden ‘Max’ Maxwell (37) sexy and hot as hell... but enough to re-read it? I hadn't thought so... but obviously I was wrong... Hell, it even has insta-love and shit...

I am the Light to the Dark. You call to me as I call to you. I will always hold you dear.
Here's the thing; If I wanted to read Anita Blake books, I'd just read Anita Blake series. This book reminds me waaaaay too much of Anita Blake series. I gave up on A.B. series after it became too many men in her life, and of course I have to end up with another series that is just the same, and where the main heroine, Lucinda ends up breaking my Michel's heart, because she has no damn control of her body. Fuck her! I love you, Michel, you just come to me, I'll take care of you!! <3 [image]
“What does your heart say, ma cherie?” What did it say? It said I loved Michel, but Michel was also hurting me right now and when I looked closer, it also said I might just love Gregor too. Aw damn. Confused much?
Not only does slutty Lucinda want Gregor too, she also lust after Nero. WTF?! I don't get her. Does she think everyone wants her so she can do whatever she wants? She has cheated on my Michel so many damn times now, that I'm getting furious. YES, KISSING DOES COUNT AS CHEATING IN MY HEAD!
The lights came back on, the Champion floated back to the ground and suddenly I was in Michel's arms. And there was no where else I wanted to be.
Michel is the perfect man for her. He has her back no matter what. He follows her into danger just to be at her side. He cherish her. He is her rock when she's down. He takes her punishments EVEN THOUGH HE DOESN'T DESERVE IT, and she still get's angry. He loves her so fiercely, so so fiercely, and there she goes and hurts him CONSTANTLY! Lucinda needs a HUGE fucking kick in the ass, or she needs to get her damn head out of her ass.
“You're making this hard.” My voice did hitch a bit there, but I no longer cared. He could see what he was doing to me already. “I am glad, it should be hard. It should not be easy to walk away from someone you love.”
Lucinda is pretty annoying. She believes she's this good person, while all she does is actually hurting people. Specially Michel. She get's angry and childish at things that doesn't make sense, and let other things that she SHOULD be angry at go. She let's Gregor manipulate her, and all she thinks is how much she wants him. Michel get's the blain and pain for every damn thing. I have lost soooo much respect for Lucinda. She was supposed to be this kickass woman, yet she SUCKS! She's weak. She hides. Did I mention that she's weak? So you are probably getting that she's getting on my nerves?
Leaving me slightly bemused and then belatedly realizing I had a smile on my face. He'd done it. He'd made me smile despite all the fear and heartache I was feeling. He'd made me, for an instant, forget and he hadn't even used his powers to do it.
I would normally like person's (more like vampires) like Gregor, however, he is making Michel hurt. Gregor is still kinda a mystery, though I'm not that interested in solving that mystery. I just want him gone so Michel doesn't hurt so much. Michel's my baby. So leave, Gregor and take Nero with you while you're at it.
He smiled, the smile he reserves for only me. That smile that takes my breath away, that shows me the little boy he once would have been. He doesn't flash that smile often, it makes him vulnerable, so I really appreciate it when he does. It's just so damn precious. "Je t'aime trop, ma douce."
You have other characters like Nero. He's cool, I guess, but I want him gone as well. Lucinda, the slut, wants him as well, because obviously Michel's not enough for her. I want to slap her. Kinda stab her too, when I think about it. Rick on the other hand, I just couldn't get. What the fuck was up with him? He has lost it completely and I'm sad for how it will affect the Alpha of his pack. (Sorry, I don't remember his name...Jerome or something?)
“Je suis ici, ma douce cherie. Venez à moi.”
Anyways, now that I've kinda gotten out my anger-nope, not all anger is out. Did I mention that I hated Lucinda? If not then: I hate Lucinda. I'm renaming her to Slutty Lucinda. But no matter how much I hate her, I'm not ready to give this series up just yet. I still want to see where Michel is going. Will he finally leave her and she'll realize what she has lost and Michel will come to me? So yeah, I need to continue to read, at least third book and hope for the best. Rate: 2.5 *I do love Michel* stars. ...more
