The Wickedness of a Highlander by Elisa Braden
2.5
another book with an big, angry, horny hero and a naive, simpering heroine. This series has lost the plot
The hero in this is so angry, he shouts at her the entire book. I don’t know if that has to do with the narrator making him shout every line of dialogue but this heroine was badly abused by her brother, he knows that, but he rails at her at every opportunity.
She’s nothing but naive and sweet too. This is hard to read.
The first book in this series was a strong heroine and a charming hero, the rest are all wide eyed heroines and super grouchy, angry and horny heroes, this one is the worst of them. I am not into assholes with bad tempers, especially when this book had virtually no plot and focussed solely on their frequent sex capades, like they did it ten times a day (it was mentioned) and when they weren’t doing it they were thinking about doing it. No time for plot when you’re busy railing each other.
The last 20% of the book attempted to have a villain arc but it was too little too late. I should have abandoned this series after the last book but I wanted to see how Sabella’s story went after being the sister of the big bad from the rest of the series. It’s basically a carbon copy of books two and three. Yawn.
This is only really good if you are looking for historical smut because that’s all this was.
