Only her love could gentle his savage soulHe was born to a clan of warriors of supernatural strength, but Gavrael McIllioch abandoned his name and his Highland castle, determined to escape the dark fate of his ancestors. Hiding his identity from the relentless rival clan that hunted him, he called himself Grimm to protect the people he cared for, vowing never to acknowledge his love for ravishing Jillian St. Clair. Yet even from afar he watched over her, and when her father sent an urgent summons, "Come for Jillian," he raced to her sideinto a competition to win her hand in marriage.Why had he run from her so many years before? And why return now to see her offered as a prize in her father's manipulative game? Furious, Jillian vowed never to wed. But Grimm was the man she loved, the one who urged her to marry another. He tried to pretend indifference as she tempted him, but he could not deny the fierce desires that compelled him to abduct her from the altar. She was the only woman who could tame the beast that raged within himeven as deadly enemies plotted to destroy them both....From the Paperback edition.

Bk 2/8: follows a character from bk 1. Involves berserker legend & classic male self loathing trope. Female main is obviously the greatest everything & determined to make male see he‘s the best ever. Youthful parent hatred and missed clues, miscommunication & misunderstandings round out our rom tropes. We love strong sexy savages with hearts of gold & how dedicated they are to their soul mates.

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I remember this one, so early in her writing career. 3y
The_Literary_Jedi @Riveted_Reader_Melissa - yes! I can see the development as I went through this series where she became more confident with the story itself and tried to create a broader world than classic m/f romantic tropes 3y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @The_Literary_Jedi I read this whole series years ago, and I think each one got a bit better then the last....and then I read the Fever series that spun off after this series. 3y

I just finished this one today after #audiowalking and #audiopuzzling this afternoon. There is no time travel in this one, but the the hero is a berserker, so there still is a paranormal element to it. I know Grimm, in his mind, had good reasons for being such a jerk to Jillian in the beginning, but it got old pretty quickly. But other than that I enjoyed this one much more than the first book in the series.

margreads This brings back memories! I read this series years ago. I started reading the next series but have given up on it now 4y

I‘ve had this puzzle with Jane Austen covers for about a year now and decided today was the day to start it. I have the first step done - separating out the edge pieces.

I have about 3 1/2 hours of this audiobook left. #audiopuzzling

CrowCAH I just did this puzzle last month; it was so much fun to put together! 4y

We ended up wet on our walk today walking to campus and back. #audiowalking

Listening to this book has made me realize I have forgotten much of this book. I‘m pretty sure it‘s the only one in the series that doesn‘t include time travel, though.

It‘s Friday! Well actually it‘s Thursday. But we‘re doing 4 days of 10 hours at work so that the building will sit empty for 3 days. So I have the next 3 days off! 😁 First order of non-business- #audiowalking with Peri.

Started my next audiobook while weeding the music books. I'm listening to the next Highlander book by Moning.

9/10 Fine example of the historical romance genre. Good read, likeable characters, and just enough going on to make it interesting.

Current stats for #24B4Monday
I'm finishing up the tagged book which I started before I went into the hospital but never finished. I'm hoping to finish both that one and Baby Teeth tonight. I am switching between them both on and off today.

I'm on a roll!!! 🤘😆🤘

huntersmom1977 Just out of curiosity, the ones you marked STARTED mean you are reading them all at the same time? 5y

Listening to audio version. Not really sure how I‘m liking it so far.

Something of a 16th century Scottish Beauty and the Beast tale. Romance, tragedy, drama, and the occasional humor. Caught myself smiling and chuckling more than once.

Mehso-so

Rereading the whole series again. The first time I read this I liked it ok. After rereading it I have to say this is my least favorite in the series. I liked the mythical parts including the berserker fables but I just didn't like the heroine.

⭐️⭐️⭐️
