Another good book in this series.Phoebe Allen is coerced into making love to a Scottish hottie, Connor Ballard. He told her that they would not be bound for 100 years but he lied to her. She found out after that he was on a mission to find a tailisman that will help keep the demon, Lilith, in the Pits of Hell forever.The have quite an adventure getting the talisman and meet some interesting new people and have fun finding each other and falling in love? Just finished reading Come Hell or High Water (Broken Heart, OK, Book 6) by Michele Bardsley which I give 3 stars. The Broken Heart series is about a group of single parents in the town of Broken Heart, Oklahoma who all get attacked one night and are turned into vampires. Each book is about a different one of the so-called "Turn Bloods". They're paranormal romances because of the HEA at the end of each book, but the series itself also has a story arc.Come Hell or High Water features Phoebe Allen, mother of four-year-old, Danny and member of the vampire family whose powers include a certain amount of control over demons. Phoebe impetuously mates herself to a Scottish hunk named Connor, who turns out to be half-demon and suddenly finds herself in the middle of a quest to locate an ancient talisman and perform a ritual to banish Lilith, a super-demon, back to Hell. I've always enjoyed the books from this series, but sadly, I find myself less engaged with each new book. :-( They're a fairly quick, light read with lots of humor and a bit of excitement & danger mixed in, but there are some plot holes and consistency mistakes here and there that bother me (and I'm the type of person who usually doesn't notice these things). For instance: in Come Hell or High Water we're told that Phoebe is the last female vampire of the Durga family line. However, in the glossary of the Broken Heart Turn-Bloods it clearly says that Darlene Clark (whose book I assume we'll see down the line somewhere) is also a member of family Durga. We're also given some information in the glossary about Turn-Blood, Elizabeth Bretton nee Silverstone. She's supposed to be separated from her first husband, Carlton, and has a seventeen year old daughter named Venice who lives with Carlton in LA. However, in the teaser for the next book - Elizabeth's book - it says that her husband is Henry and that Venice is his daughter by another women, and therefore Elizabeth's step-daughter. In the same teaser there's a mention of 18-year old Marybeth Beauchamp, another Turn-Blood that the glossary has listed as being 19 years old. See what I mean? Regardless, I'll probably buy the next book because they're a nice entertaining break from heavier reading, but I'm hoping they edit the glossary next time around. . .
What do You think about Come Hell Or High Water (2010)?
Probably more of a 3.5. Funny, easy to read. I am quite liking this series.

A Scottish brogue makes up for a lot of things even being half demon.
