rjordan19 's review for:
Never Seduce a Scot
by Maya Banks
Overall enjoyed the book. I gave it 4 stars. I loved the heroine and hero.
My annoyances with the book were:
I felt like it had a lot of unnecessary details. I’m sure some of it is to build up the other characters if they are in a future book, but I felt like there was a lot of nonsense stuff that really took me out of the moment (like during the first intimate scene where it starts talking about Graeme losing his virginity and how his clan feels about giving oral sex...I was like, why is this HERE? Or in here at all?? Lol.) The beginning was especially hard for me. My attention was wavering at page 30 and I literally said to myself “Get it together!” 🤣 And again at page 66. But after they reached the Montgomery hold and the dialogue picked up I liked the flow a lot more.
I hated how the heroine was this amazingly fierce, genuine, proud character that turns into some meek, downtrodden housemaid when she goes to take over the lairds wife duties. I get that maybe she didn’t know exactly how to run a keep but I highly down she thought her own mother scrubbed the floors by hand and washed the pots. Even if I got past that, she knew something was wrong. She literally ripped a sword off the wall to threaten a woman the previous day but now was working until her hands literally bled and didn’t say boo? But after those scenes involving that I felt like she perked back up to what I thought she was.
I loved Evaline (other than above mentioned) i loved that she went to Graeme wholeheartedly and gave herself to him. I love that Graeme fell in love and didn’t fight it. I LOVED that. I thought they were very sweet together. I loved that he just adored her and was so protective and never doubted her loyalty to him. I think they are a good match for each other. I am left sooo content that they are happy together after the story ends even though there was no epilogue.
I’d like to say that while I liked cover, I wish the heroine would have been dressed in one of the Scottish tunics described. I know this dress wasn’t in her clothing trunk 😂 Graeme can stay shirtless 🤣
