A Howl For The Highlander (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Reviewed by: CrystalBook provided by: NetGalleyReview originally posted at Romancing the Book I love paranormal and highlanders… so the combination made me pick up this book. I also loved the cover of the book. I enjoyed the colors and it was very pleasing on the eye.It took me a little bit to get into the book. It just started off a little slow and seemed that there was just a little too much info. Once I got past the first the first couple of chapters and the story line started picking up, I started to get into the story. I love the thought of a werewolf and having their own rules. I always wondered how they took care of werewolves that had done wrong and was just bad. I understood better after reading this book.This is the first book I have read from this author and I’m glad that I took the chance to read it. I enjoyed the characters and the storyline was good. I also loved the thought of a highlander that was a wolf. You know that has to be one sexy man walking around. You can just imagine Duncan strutting around and daring anyone to take one wrong move.I enjoyed watching Duncan and Shelley interact with each other. You know that sparks will fly when you get an alpha male and a woman who is used to doing things for herself and taking action without having to deal with a man who is used to being a boss. The sex between them was really hot and I just love when two werewolves get together and you don’t have a lot of beating around the bush about the others feelings.This book isn’t just about wolves and finding your mate and sex. It’s about a bad wolf who tries to take money away from a clan and not wanting to deal with his actions. It has some suspenseful moments in the book and that gives it great action. I love books that have a great storyline like this book did. I just want to say that even though it did start off a little slow for me and it took a couple of chapters for me to get into it, I am happy I worked through it because I would’ve missed a really great book if I hadn’t.So I recommend this book to anyone who loves highlanders and wolves. Loves a woman that takes care of herself and a man that will do anything for the woman that he loves. Howl for a Highlander is a fast paced, sexy, exciting and romantic read. This is my first time reading to be Terry Spear's work and it was absolutely amazing. The story was set in the Grand Cayman Islands which I know is a beautiful place based descriptions that I have read but the was Ms. Spear described I felt I was actually apart of the story.The characters were superb. My favourite character is Shelly. I loved her independence, determination and her sense of loyalty.Shelly was visiting the Grand Cayman Islands in order to conduct some research. She never expected to catch the attention of not one but two werewolves. One was a criminal who swindled persons out of their hard earned cash and the other who was hell bent on taking down this criminal. Duncan MacNeill was on a mission to capture the wolf who had stolen his clan's money. He never expected to be distracted by a lone she-wolf whom he felt was in need of his protection.The chemistry between Shelly and Duncan was sizzling. I loved the way the author developed the relationship between these two. It was quite realistic. It was easy for me to relate to both characters. I loved Duncan's selflessness and his need to protect those he felt needed it.Howl for a Highlander is the tenth book in the Heart of the Wolf series which can be read as a stand alone. After reading this book I am compelled to read the other book in the series.The story was past paced, filled with action and mystery. I absolutely could not put it down. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute spent reading this story. I was pulled into the story from the beginning and it held my interest until the very end.I will definitely be adding Terry Spear to my list of favourite authors.
