Review: If You Deceive (#3)

If You Deceive (MacCarrick Brothers, #3)If You Deceive by Kresley Cole

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the final book of the MacCarrick brothers trilogy.

The story of Ethan and Maddy.....by far, my favorite book of the trilogy. I read it in one six-hour sitting.

Ethan was once a handsome ladies man, but his face was horribly disfigured when was punished for something he didn't actually do. This alone was enough to rip out your heart. Not only does Ethan live under his family's curse.....he's also cursed with (what he considers) a physical deformity as well.

One night Ethan goes with his brother Hugh (from book #2) to a masked ball and he meets the lovely Madeline van Rowen. Sparks fly, they have a bit of passion in a carriage, and Maddy goes back home to France.

I won't say any more, because there are a lot of twists and turns in this book.....and I don't like to give out spoilers. Especially with books that I loved as much as this one. And I did love this book so very much.

Kresley Cole Books = guaranteed HOT SEX

And again with the tortured men finding redemption with the right woman. This is a theme in many Kresley Cole books. But I'm a sucker for them - so keep bringin' it, Cole.

Review: If You Desire (#2)

If You Desire (MacCarrick Brothers, #2)If You Desire by Kresley Cole

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The 2nd book in the MacCarrick brothers trilogy.

This is the story of Hugh and Jane. Hugh has been in love with Jane for as long as he can remember, but he won't pursue her because of his family's curse. They parted ways and haven't seen each other for years. But Hugh still works for her father, and he's called in to protect Jane when her father believe's that he has some enemies that wish to harm her.

Hugh takes Jane away - to protect her - both the love and passion that both of them still feel for each other can't stay hidden for long.

And, well, you know the rest.

As will all of Cole's books - the sex is oh so hot. And do I really have to mention the Scottish brogue?

Hot Scottish man who will do anything to protect the woman he loves. *sigh* What else do you need to know other than that? I mean, really.

Review: If You Dare (#1)

If You Dare (MacCarrick Brothers, #1)If You Dare by Kresley Cole

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first of the MacCarrick brothers trilogy - the story of Anna and Court.

The MacCarrick brothers believe they are cursed and can never marry or have children due to an ancient book that predicted the futures of everyone in their clan. Unfortunately for them, all predictions have come true, so they have no reason not to believe that they are indeed cursed.

As with all of Kresley Cole's books - the sex is incredibly hot, and the Scottish brogue is even hotter.

I will give Cole credit - she is the author that turned me on to the romance genre. Her writing is solid and the books are always page-turners. And really, you can't ask for much more than that.
