About this book
In this pulse-pounding Immortals After Dark tale, 1 New York Times bestselling author Kresley Cole delves into the darkest mysteries and deepest passions of Clan MacRieve…
Uilleam MacRieve believed he’d laid to rest the ghosts of his boyhood. But when a brutal torture revives those ancient agonies and destroys his Lykae instinct, the proud Scot craves the oblivion of death. Until he finds her—a young human so full of spirit and courage that she pulls him back from the brink.
Seized for the auction block, Chloe Todd is forced to enter a terrifying new world of monsters and lore as a bound slave. When offered up to creatures of the dark, she fears she won’t last the night. Until she’s claimed by him—a wicked immortal with heartbreaking eyes, whose touch sets her blood on fire.
With enemies circling, MacRieve spirits Chloe away to the isolated Highland keep of his youth. But once he takes her to his bed, his sensual mate becomes something more than human, evoking his savage past and testing his sanity. On the cusp of the full moon, can he conquer his worst nightmare to save Chloe…from himself?

Edit: I just reread this book the other day and, while I will not change anything I wrote in my original review (since it was an honest first impression), I will add the following comments: on second reading, MacRieve is even better than it was the first time around. The elements that seemed flawed to me upon first reading didn't bother me the second time. I still don't think MacRieve packs quite the same emotional punch as the best Cole books. However, to me MacRieve now stands out as one of...

First off, it's 3.5 stars but being a huge Cole/IAD fan I can't help but round up instead of down. That said, I just finished reading this and I'm wicked conflicted. Kresley Cole is my favorite author. She writes angst and hot sex like no other. Her voice, her style, really appeals to me and draws me in like no other author. After the many IAD books I felt like I knew her strengths, and her weaknesses, and knew what to expect from her. This book was different. Not sure I can pinpoint it exactly...

MacRieve (Immortals After Dark #12) by Kresley Cole Will (Hotter, Crypt Keeper) & Chloe (Baby T-Rex, Soccer extraordinaire) Ok Ok Ok... breathe... inhale, exhale... Holy freaking hell!!! This book grabbed my by the lady balls and squeezed the ever-lovin' life out me. I am still reeling and will be for quite some time! Dark subject matter, but you can hardly break away from that with a Kresley Cole book, especially an IAD book. This is book #12 in the chain and I'm still just as hung up and hung...

Those horrors have shaped who he has become today: a tormented Scottsman who would rather let his shapeshifter self take control than deal with hurtful emotions on his own. MacRieve never thought he would find his mate and has been glad he hasn't yet found her, thinking himself so damaged that...

Overview: Lykae Uilleam MacRieve (Will) has hit rock bottom. After centuries of trying to ignore a festering emotional wound, it's violently reopened, and now Will seeks to end his torment.
