The Immortal Highlander by Karen Marie Moning
2.0
I'm going to put it this way: there are two books left in the series, and I'm seriously considering not even finishing the series.
Here's the problem I have with these. I like [a:Karen Marie Moning|48206|Karen Marie Moning|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1424110162p2/48206.jpg]. The first books in this series weren't that bad. I LOVE her [b:Darkfever|112750|Darkfever (Fever, #1)|Karen Marie Moning|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1392579949s/112750.jpg|108558] and Fever series (up til it was restarted with [b:Iced|12444166|Iced (Fever, #6)|Karen Marie Moning|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1333022535s/12444166.jpg|17427104] but that's another conversation) so much. But this series... it feels like like the stories are just all over the place at first and then SEX! LUST! DESIRE!
Now, I willbe a perv be honest here, the lust between her characters is awesome. When that woman teases, she knows how to tease. The problem I have is that I like an actual story with my smut. The Highlander series fails to give me that.
Before now, I've been lenient and given three stars. I feel like I've betrayed how I really feel about the story and given stars based on the hot hotness of the hot men who are hot.
This time, I kind of got fed up by the lack of story. But I LOVE Adam. He is mischievous, devilish, charming, up to no good, but somewhere he is good and has a spot for humans. So to have him in this book... there were times I loved it and times I couldn't stand it (plot annoyance).
I was slightly annoyed by Gabrielle. I liked the fact that she was a Sidhe-seer and figured that would be a good twist since he is Tuatha De afterall, but herpitiful fight that was half hearted and I never took seriously, and just wanted to laugh at the whole time resistance to Adam annoyed me. It didn't feel real. It felt forced in because that's how you have to do it in these books apparently. Can we not anymore??
SIGH
I will probably end up finishing the series. There are, after all, only two books left. I've only kept reading because it does interlace with the Fever series so much. One thing I am glad about is that I read Darkfever before this series. If I hadn't, I probably would have never ended up being lustful over Barrons.
Thank goodness for small favors.

He thought he was beginning to understand. It wasn't symmetry of features; it wasn't perfection. It was uniqueness. That which one person had that no other possessed. That which was only their own. Perhaps Gabrielle's nose was like a thousand others, but they weren't on her face, with her eyes, with her cheekbones and hair. Nor were those noses graced with her many expressions, crinkling so charmingly when she laughed, flaring so haughtily when she was irritated.

Adam threw back his dead and laughed, eyes sparkling, with gold fire. "Bloody hell, it's good to be back," he purred.
