at first it starts out like a nice little country novels and then it gets in to the action and romance i really enjoyed it i am reading book 2 now and i am waitin on someone to post three you should read very good series

I found out about the MacCarrick brothers from reading Ms. Coles new series, The Immortals After Dark. I liked the book, but think that she does a much better job at her new series. It took me a while to get into it, but was overall a good read. Looking forward to reading the other two in this series to see if they are better.

A Scottish mercenary, a spanish general and a beautiful Castilian princess wanted by two men.

Summary: High in the Pyrenees, a band of mercenaries led by Courtland MacCarrick wages war for General Reynaldo Pascal. When Court turns on the evil general, Pascal orders him killed but Court narrowly escapes and exacts revenge by kidnapping Pascal’s exquisite Castilian fiancee. Lady Annlia Tristan Llorente despises her towering, barbaric captor almost as much as she does Pascal. Her inexplicable attraction to the Highlander only fuels her fury. But nothing will stop her from returning to Pascal-for if she doesn’t wed him, she signs her brother’s death warrant, as well as her own. From the moment Court discovers that Anna’s prim facade masks a fiery, brave lass, his heart’s ensnared, and he dares to defy the curse that had shadowed his life-to walk with death or walk alone. But Pascal vows that he’ll hunt the two, never stopping until he’s destroyed them both.

I am so utterly disappointed by this book I LOVE Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark series, but this series, OMG, I can’t even keep reading the first book, and I have read some bad books. The plot line seems forced, not only is an evil general after the two lead character but the lead male is cursed and the lead female doesn’t like him. Oh wait, after about half way through the book, she immediately and very oddly changes her mind after staying with him in the same bed overnight, drunk, at that. I haven’t even begun on the other plot lines, it completely ridiculous. I like a good highlander romance story as well as the next girl but I am sorry to say, with this book, I have lost like 4 hours of my life that will never return, and I was only half way through the book when I stopped.

I thought this book was ok. It has the typical romance plot, but I like how clever and feisty Annalia turns out. The author reminds the reader again and again being small does not mean being weak. You go Annalia!!

So far my favorite in the series! The banter between the characters, and the tension is delightful. Miss Cole is a fantastic author. This is definately a great read, and not a raunchy as her demon series. This is definately one i will read again and again!

a different storyline from cole's usual with a alikable hero

This is the first of three books about the MacCarrick brothers. Cursed to never know love have children etc... I believe it is a re-release if that's the right phrase. I haven't read the other two, but I plan to. Not a terribly intricate plot, but fun.
