gamz 's review for:
The Immortal Highlander
by Karen Marie Moning
“The other day upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today; how I wish he'd go away!”
How is it possible to find each book of this series better than the last?
Adam Black, Amadan Dubh, Sin Siriche Du; no matter what you call him, expect trouble with a capital "T".
From the start of the series Adam has played a pivotal role. The only member of the Tuatha Dè Danann that liked mortals. Although he wasn't always kind, his fascination with the mortals whose life he meddled in taught him to be more accepting and understanding (as much as he could) of them. Adam was a bit of a puzzle to me and I was thrilled that I finally for to read Adam's story.
After pleading to Aiobheal for the life of Dageus MacKelter, Adam was punished to the human world in mortal form, stripped of all his powers and invisible to humans. He meets sidhe seer Gabrielle O'Callaghan, who is able to see both the Mortal and Faery worlds and is terrified of the Fae. Adam proceeds to turn her world Updike down, making her question all she learned about the Tuatha Dè Danann and more specifically, Adam himself.
I loved that tension between Adam and Gabrielle and her fight to resist his irresistible charm. Even while on the run from danger, Adam finds ways to continue his relentless seduction of Gabby. She is a stronger woman that Me, cause I would have thrown in the towel after the fourth or fifth chapter!!
This was a great read and it reminded me of why I love romance novels: “Because, by God, when a woman picked up one of those steamy books, she had a firm guarantee that there would be a Happily-Ever-After. That though the world outside those covers could bring such sorrow and disappointment and loneliness, between those covers, the world was a splendid place to be.”
