I don’t know but I think I maybe fallin’ for you. Dropping so quickly, maybe I should keep this to myself, waiting ’til I know you better.

Format: Hardcover | Pages: 267 | Release Date: August 2004 | Publisher: Delacorte Press

"The Immortal Highlander" [The Highlander Series, Book 6] by Karen Marie Moning -- In this novel Ms. Moning took Adam Black from villain Book 1 (and maybe a few others in this series) and made him the hero! Basically Adam had been a considerable grievance to the Faery Queen in fighting against the High Council and her to save a mortals life, and because of that she punished him by taking his powers away, making him human, and making him invisible to all the mortals around him for an unknown period of time.

After a couple of months later at an impasse of what he might do to let the Faery Queen give back his immortality, a sidhe-seer named Gabrielle (Gabby) gets caught looking at him and he realizes she might just be able to save him.

Gabby tries to fight off his lure, but with his charms he is hard to keep resisting, and she just might be falling for one of the "things" her grandmother had told her always to stay away from. But what will happen once Adam gets his powers back? And with someone on Adam's tail trying to kill him over centuries old arguments while he's in human form, will they even survive before they get Adam to speak to the Queen?

4.5 out of 5 stars! It's a wonderful love story! Loved the characters! In addition, if you are a fan of the Fever series then you MUST read this book since it will give you a little more background info on Darroc -- why he was punished the way he was and how he started becoming what he is now.

My Previous Review(s) for this Series: Book 1

Like a bolt out of the blue, Fate steps in and sees you through. When you wish upon a star, Your dreams come true.

Format: Paperback | Pages: 375 | Release Date: March 1999 [Reissue edition] | Publisher: Dell

"Beyond the Highland Mist" [The Highlander Series, Book 1] by Karen Marie Moning -- This novel is set up with three situations going on that make this whole scenario that much more complicated.

First - We have Hawk. He's a Scotland laird from 1500's who is a legend to everyone around him, with his beautiful looks and his exceptionally knowledgeable skills in the bedroom, Hawk seems to be sought after by every female and is the envy of every man. However, for many years he hasn't been able to joy his skills and other delights as much as he use to, especially while he has been under the King's thumb having to do whatever he is told (even if it means having to bed woman he turned down). Just as his years of service are coming to an end, the King makes one more command; Hawk has to marry a lady called Mad Janet (who has spent most of her life trapped in a tower for unknown reasons).

Second - We have the King and the fool (aka the jester, aka Adam Black) of the fairy court. One day the Queen of the fairy court tells the King and Adam that she has been with Hawk and that he is everything that the legend states of him and more, all in attempt to make them jealous. And jealous they do get. So, the King and Adam plan on revenge against Hawk, to find him a woman who he can never have.

Third - We have Adrienne. She is from the 21st century, and has had very bad experiences with beautiful man. One in particular who used her without her knowledge for such a long time that once she found out his scams, he tried to kill her. And from then on she made a vow to hate all beautiful men, since she assumes they are all the same.

And so ... Adam chooses Adrienne and brings her back to the 1500's to fill Mad Janet’s place and marry Hawk. But can the legend melt her heart? Or will the fairy's revenge work?

3 out of 5 stars. Good book ... however, the tale was too drawn out ... and the issues could have been resolved sooner and possibly would have been a better book that way. =0P I did like the characters though! =0)

    My Teaser:
    "The Tuatha Dé do not speak of Tuatha Dé matters to" - he gave her an icy sneer - "mere mortals."

    "Well, mister-mere-mortal-yourself," she bristled right back at him, "maybe you'd better get used to it, because whether or not you like it, you need at least one of us 'mere mortals' to help you become a pompous-asshole-fairy-thing-again."

    Made the Grade: The Highlander Series, Book 7

    Format: Paperback | Pages: 395 | Release Date: June 2006 | Publisher: Dell Books

    "Spell of the Highlander" [The Highlander Series, Book 7] by Karen Marie Moning

    My Book Summary : Who knew that helping her boss, while he was in the hospital, would change Jessica's life forever ....

    All she had to do was sign for a package that was being delivered late at night at the university she worked for and the item needed just be delivered and locked up in her boss’s office, then she could go. However, fate stepped in instead ...

    What she didn't know at the time was that inside the mirror lived a ninth century Highland Warrior, named Cian, who would do anything to get out of there and the only thing he needed was her. The only problem was would she really believe what she was seeing before the person who was after the mirror came to get it and killed her in the process. So, now this Highlander offers her his protection if she offers hers in return.

    Will Jessi be able to accept the impossible and while chaos happens in the process still be able to not loose her heart to this hunk of a man ...

    My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. Not as good of storyline as I had hoped. However, the characters were cute and I couldn't get enough of them. I love the world that Ms. Moning has come up with for this series and her Fever series, especially how they both intertwine together! In this book you'll learn more background information that you didn't know about if you've only read the Fever series, so I could recommend reading this book just for that alone! I can't wait to see what will be in store next!

    My Previous Review(s) for this Series : Book 1 | Book 6

    My Previous Review(s) for this Author : Darkfever | Bloodfever | Faefever | Dreamfever

    Book Teaser :
    "Well, if he's a Druid-turned-dark-sorcerer and you're just a Druid, and a Druid-turned-dark-sorcerer is so much more powerful, then just how do you plan to defeat---oh! Crimeny! Shit!"
    Understanding belatedly dawning, she backpedaled away from him, butting up against the rain-slicked side of the car parked parallel to hers. "I can be so dense sometimes," she breathed. "Because you're one of the bad guys, too, aren't you? You turned dark sorcerer, too, didn't you? It's the only way it makes sense."
    His whisky eyes narrowed. "Get in the car, Jessica," he said softly. ~ within Chapter 12

    WWW Wednesdays [April 21, 2010]


  • Today's WWW Wednesdays by MizB - click here


  • My Personal Q&A:
    • What are you currently reading?
      "The Immortal Highlander" [The Highlander Series, Book 6] by Karen Marie Moning -- I'm half-way through the book now and I LOVE it! It's already so much better then "Beyond the Highland Mist", probably because this book is more like Karen's Fever series and I am addicted to that series.
    • What did you recently finish reading?
      I recently stopped reading "The Third Kiss: Dorian's Dream" [Third Kiss Series, Book 1] by Heather Killough-Walden, but technically I haven't finished reading it yet. It's a horror-romance type of book and it's a little to graphic on the horror side for me. Plus it has to many characters point-of-views that you read from that made it kind of boring and making the plot somewhat lost for me. *shrug* At someday I might finish the book but there are others I'll probably be reading first.
    • What do you think you’ll read next?
      "Strange Angels" [Strange Angels Series, Book 1] by Lilith Saintcrow -- This series has been coming up on my recommended list from Amazon.com for a while, and now I'm finally going to be reading it! YAY!
