i_hype_romance's review against another edition

I thought the character development could have been a little more thorough. Grif's feelings for Anna evolved too rapidly and were tied too closely to their amorous encounters. I also thought that the disappearance of "the beastie" was a little too trite, although it set the stage quite nicely for the next installment in the trilogy.

I knew "Miss Addison" from the first book in this series "Highlander Unbound" would appear in this book, great set-up by the author. The beginning scene in this book with "Mared" ,Liam and Grif's sister, and Payton Douglas makes me very excited for the third book in this series which I am assuming is going to have them starring in it. I love how Payton describes Mared "She was as pretty as she was insufferable".
Anyway back to Grif and Anna, I love how Grif calls Anna trouble and describes her saucy during their second introduction. I just felt like I was about to experience some really hot smoldering chemistry. I also like how the author has Grif taking a second look at Anna and then really seeing her, some great real life advice for everyone!
I didn't know what to think about Anna's scheme to attract a man, "Drake Lockhart" who obviously likes her sister, Anna is suppose to be a strong, smart woman but when Grif calls her a fool I found myself heartily agreeing.
Grif training Anna to be a seductress makes for some really great scenes. My heart softened for this couple after a make-out scene between them. They are both repairing each others appearances; for some reason Anna tying his necktie and him finger combing her hair w/out them really realizing what they are doing really tugged on my heart strings, great scene.
The sensual level of the book I would describe as overall steamy. In the scene where Grif has Anna in a chair and "teaches her a lesson" nothing could have pulled me away from finishing that scene, whoo-hoo hottt!
It was kind of a nice change to see the male lead being forlorn for the female. I don't know, this book wasn't a keeper for me but was a good sequel for the first in the series.

I liked book one, but I didn't love it. I wasn't sure how I would feel about this one, and I was pleasantly surprised. I knew what was going to happen at the end before it happened, and it felt like something added in just to keep the story going. I really liked their relationship and how much they didn't like each other at the beginning. I really wanted the overarching goal to be solved in this book and then have something else be the problem in the next book instead of it being the same thing again in this book, therefore setting up the next book with the same problem.
Anyway, overall, I liked this one and I'll be reading the next one to see how things unfold.
