Pleasure of a Dark Prince
by Kresley Cole
5 HEARTS
From Goodreads
Kresley Cole enraptures again with this seductive tale of a fierce werewolf prince who will stop at nothing to protect the lovely archer he covets from afar.
A Dangerous Beauty
Lucia the Huntress: as mysterious as she is exquisite, she harbors secrets that threaten to destroy her—and those she loves.
An Uncontrolled Need
Garreth MacRieve, Prince of the Lykae: the brutal Highland warrior who burns to finally claim this maddeningly sensual creature as his own.
That lead to a pleasure so wicked...
From the shadows, Garreth has long watched over Lucia. Now, the only way to keep the proud huntress safe from harm is to convince her to accept him as her guardian. To do this, Garreth will ruthlessly exploit Lucia's greatest weakness—her wanton desire for him.
PoaDP is book #9 in the IAD series. This is Lucia and Garrath MacRieve's book. Lucia the Huntress is a Valkyrie of mysterious origin and the world's most skilled archeress. MacRieve is the ruler of the Lykae Clan and has been ever since his brother disappeared.
If you've read Kresley Cole before you know that she is a fabulous writer. If you haven't read her you are surely missing out. Go grab one of her books!
FINALLY we find out what happened to Lucia. We meet her in A Hunger Like No Other but then she seems to disappear in the other books. Now we know why. I've said it before and I will say it again, I love how the books in this series are so intertwined. It's like looking at the same thing but from different angles and perspectives. Though this sounds annoying and repetitive it's not for me and I really enjoy it. I loved seeing the scenes that we saw in A Hunger Like No Other from Garreth's view. And oh my, Garreth. My favorite IAD boy. Though truthfully I have a thing for all the Lykae!
Random things that I smiled at...
"Well, then, Lousha the Huntress" - a roguish grin curled his lips - "you've snared me." ~Can you say corny?
Garreth trying to hide his chuckle when she first tried to "make a fist" around him. ~~Such a male thing.
Captain Travis's defensive response to Lucia calling his ship a boat. "...as if she'd told him, 'Your penis: I find it minuscule.'"
Regin's crazy texting.
Nix as always makes me laugh. Loved her shout out to Bon Jovi. "Shots to the heart, and your to blame."
Lucia Incantata ~you got to love it when the man after your heart names a butterfly after you. Plus I'm a butterfly freak.
"Bluidy hell" ~that man's accent makes me melt.
"Mari, never let it be said that I donna support your extrortion-" "Entrepreneurial-ness," she corrected.
