Narrative In Favor Of Books Highland Thirst (MacNachton Vampires #4)
New York Times bestselling authors Hannah Howell and Lynsay Sands once again combine their talents to deliver their most thrilling book yet. Set in the rugged Scottish Highlands, here is the spellbinding tale of two men destined to live by night with a hunger only the blood of Outsiders can quench--and a passion only two extraordinary women can satisfy. . . Embrace The Dark Side. . .Cousins Heming MacNachton and Tearlach MacAdie are bound by the same blood, the same ancient curse, and now the same quest: to search out the enemies of their clan--hunters who consider them soul-less demons and intend to exterminate them. But no sooner have Heming and Tearlach begun than they are drugged, separated, and taken captive. One is brought deep into the borderlands of Scotland, the other, in the dreary depths of Northern England. Caged and weakened, only two brave women give them hope. . .
Brona Kerr and Lady Lucy Blytheswood are irresistibly drawn to the mysterious prisoners. Together, the women resolve to save them. In doing so, they will safeguard the clan's future and their own. For they are promised to cruel men who will do anything to possess them and the status that comes with them. Now Brona and Lucy must cross perilous terrain to fight for their lives--and for the men with whom they discover an eternal passion they never imagined. . .

Wow. My standards for entertainment, especially romance novels, are pretty low. It's damn near impossible to go wrong for my taste if you throw in the Highlands, yet somehow this book failed me utterly. The nigh-stupefying simplicity of the storyline suffered more when burdened by clunky dialogue, tired exposition, and a complete lack of anything even remotely original. What a stinker. So glad it was a loaner - I didn't pay for it AND I can give it back!
My grandma gave this book to me and said it was and I quote a realllyyyy good one. I wouldnt really recommend but my grandma does so do with that what you may. Thanks.
The two stories in this book was so long and boring I couldnt keep my head from drooping and hitting the table. The entire series at this point is just one looooong cross country marathon, traveling the same trope, hurtling to the exact same finish. All thats required is to swap out the names. If youve read the first two, youve read them all. Ive just invited myself to be tortured, thinking as the series went along things would be different and original. It wasnt, and it isnt.
Hannah Howell didn't seem all too interested in writing vampire stories. And oddly enough Lynsay Sands wasn't that much better. Her Argeneau Family Series is much better.I wouldn't have felt anything for the characters if it wasn't for the situation. There wasn't much buildup for them. And the whole book was the same story with 4 people. 2 were the main characters in the first half and the other two were the main in the second half. But all in all it was still better than watching re-runs on tv.
Two stories. Both pretty disappointing. Not sure which was written by which author, but I have to wonder WHY does Hannah Howell like to stab her heroines??? Is it really necessary to the story? To me it's pretty gross and didn't add anything to the plot.Hemming the idiot and Brona the unlucky & Tearlach the dweeb and Lucy the unlucky. So First off, Hemming and Tearlach are Scottish vampires and get jumped by anti-vampire creeps outside an Inn. They are both rescued by their lasses (that was
Two intertwined stories about cousin Scot vampires in the 16th century. The first story was a little uneven and stretched plausibility. Not the vampires but that the heroine had pets, particularly a cat in a time when cats were considered evil or witches and no one had a problem with it. The second story was better written and I liked the heroine a lot more. It was a little harsher and the characters more rounded. I admit the accents and language took awhile to get used to and understand but I
