Be Still My Vampire Heart

Be Still My Vampire Heart

If it was still beating. Angus MacKay has been undead for almost five hundred years and it's not often something, or someone, surprises him. Until Emma Wallace. The sight of this luscious agent from the CIA's elite Stake-Out team was enough to stop Angus in his tracks. But then he discovers that she's a vampire slayer, intent on killing the "monsters" who killed her parents. And it's Angus's job to stop her. The only good vampire is a dead vampire. It's been Emma's motto since she committed her life to the destruction of these things. Now Angus MacKay wants to convince her differently. Sure, he's a sexy Highland warrior who seems to have stepped off the cover of a romance novel, complete with brogue, kilt, and sword, but he's also one of them. And it's her job to kill him. The war is on, but will it end in the destruction of one or both of them . . . or in total surrender to a passion for the ages?

Angus Mackay has been instructed to stop a mortal vampire slayer from killing the malcontents, to prevent a war from breaking out. Emma Wallace, an CIA agent and also part of the vampire stake out team, Emma has been out for revenge ever since she witnessed her parents murdered by vampires. The more vampires she the better it is for her, however she is thrown back to the core when she comes across the one vampire that stirs up her senses and makes her heart beat faster. But knowing her strong attraction the the Scottish vampire, she knows she must kill him. But his kisses awakens a passion that cannot be quenched and she wonders if she could ever truly kill him when she is starting to fall head over heels for him....I thought that I would do a review on this one, since its one of the earlier books that I read from Kerrelyn Sparks, but that was before I started this blog, so I thought it was about tiime that I did. I have always loved Angus, and reading his story even though the second time was just as exhilirating and had a dangerous yet witty appeal to it. This is the book where we first see (Dr Phang) come and join their fighting team, and boy does that character make me laugh. I loved the characters throughout all the story, both main and sub, Angus is a true Scot that was born 500 years previous, and Emma is a modern woman, so things are bound to be a adjustment between the two. As the passion between them grows, we all see a strong love develop between them, and learn all about faith and trust. This story was filled with danger, sharp wit, and a powerful love story, that will captivate every heart, and have you cheering for this couple!!! Definitely a romance you don't want to miss out on!! My Favorite Quote "I told you mine was bigger." What typical male arrogance. "I was referring to your sword. Not your wee willie" "If ye're going to insult my size, I'll have to defend myself by offering ye proof." His mouth twitched "Tis a matter of honor, and I'm a verra honorable man"

Publicado originalmente en: El Extraño Gato del Cuento Me encanta Kerrelyn, los #2.5 libro anteriores son geniales, esperé un buen tiempo para que se me juntaran muchos y poderlos leer de golpe. La trama no es cosa del otro mundo en realidad, las motivaciones de Emma son un recurso que se ha utilizado ya en muchos libro, claro, eso no le quita mérito porque Kerrelyn y su Sociedad Secreta de vampiros te seduce para ser parte de su clan. Las explicaciones de cómo funciona la sociedad que Kerrelyn nos trae están de más, este es un tercer libro, obviamente debiste haberte leído los previos, me gustó que no se tomara párrafo, tras párrafo para volver a explicar. Como a veces suele suceder con algunos otros escritores. Los personajes me encantan. Emma es un patea traseros y ya la habíamos conocido un poco en los libros anteriores, es perteneciente al grupo Stake-Out, liderado por el papá de Shanna, espora de Roman Draganesti (How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire, Love at Stake #1). Y pasa lo mismo con Angus, que ya lo conocíamos digo. Es un gran amigo de Roman, jefe de su seguridad y dueño de “Seguridad e Investigación MacKay”. Siendo una saga donde cada libro se centra en personajes diferentes, pero que ya conocíamos, los protagonistas de libros anteriores hacen pequeñas apariciones, como para que no los extrañemos. Y en Be Still My Vampire Heart, Shanna Draganesti tiene un muy, muy ligero protagonismo.
