Wicked Deeds On A Winter's Night by Kresley Cole


I haven't updated for some time so here's a book I felt was nice. It's by far one of the least innocent books I've read.

From the back cover:
Her Breathless Kiss Haunts Him...
Bowen MacRieve of the Lykae clan was nearly destroyed when he lost the one woman meant for him. The ruthless warrior grew even colder, never taking another to his bed - until a smoldering encounter with his enemy, Mariketa the Awaited, reawakens his darkest desires. When sinister forces unite against her, the Highlander finds himself using all his strength and skill to keep her alive.

His Slow Hot Touch Is Irresistible...
Temporarily stripped of her powers, Mari is forced to take refuge with her sworn adversary. It's rumored that no one can temp Bowen's hardened heart, but soon passion burns between them. Though a future together is impossible, she fears he has no intention of letting her go.

No Deed Is Too Wicked For Her Seduction...
If they defeat the evil that surrounds them, can Mari deny Bowen what he demands her body and soul - or will she risk everything for her fierce protector?


My Thoughts:
It sure has a different track record from other books I've read. It doesn't start out innocent and tame. It jumps straight to the gut wrenching feelings of the two main characters. Things become more confusing and are filled with guilt and deciet when Bowen thinks that Mariketa is the reincarnation of his mate. Oh, then of course, he decides to test his theory and gets all caveman on her and doesn't let her out of his sight. And as all men are want to do, he bungles up his chance, and Mari leaves him. Then... what's this? Bowen's mate has returned from the dead? Oh, my! What is Mari to do? But is it really his mate? Fast paced, sexy and confusing, this will keep readers riveted to it's pages. Even the cover is sexy.

This is the third book in the series, but the books aren't interconnected. It's all different stories, but characters in previous books can be found in this one. I just have to read the other books!
