This book had all the necessary ingredients to be an awesome story: Highland Lairds, misjudged maidens, fae curses, historical time period. Unfortunately, the story took terribly long to develop because the action kept stopping to inform us that Laird Maclee had, once again, been turned on by the slightest brush of the hand from the aforementioned misjudged maiden. I found myself skipping entire pages of their intimate moments and saying to myself, "Enough already". In addition, it is a pretty pathetic Clan Laird who will leave pressing business of his Clan to, once again, make love to his woman. Also found that everyone's placid acceptance of finding them barely dressed and groping each other extremely unrealistic. I felt uncomfortable for them, having to endure the man's lack of physical control. I found the end drama to be too contrived and way too drawn out. It turned the rapidly degenerating laird into someone obsessive, possessive, grasping, overly hormonal, and desperate.

A bit to much sex and pity party for my taste. Decent story line though. Not a bad draft.

I was surprised to see 600+ pages. I'd give it 2.5 stars.
The story started out OK. Laird Nial Maclee has a family curse where he will only be happy with his fated love. His family had been cursed generations ago when his great-great.etc grandfather married a Fae princess then eventually married another after she was forced to return home (leaving behind their infant son).
Maclee is a good Laird but likes women too. He doesn't want to be forced to wed as his father married one who wasn't his fated love & was miserable. His friends tease him about the curse & his many admirers as the curse includes all the Maclee Lairds will be more handsome then the one before. Which equals many stalker vying to be his wife and one admirer they all tease him about the Lady Heather Mac(Hag Heather).
The story began well. I'd say 3 stars but it never seemed to end. There were several places I felt it could end well & it just didn't. The London scenes were dragged out. I felt the actions of Heather & Nial seemed out of place for the time period. And the lack of reaction from other characters seemed odd to. As the story progress, Nial's feelings seemed more obsessive then caring. seemed off too.
Other than the curse, wasn't sure why fae was added to the story line.

This started out as a great book but at 600pages come on!. I quit at page 500. A lot could have been cut out of the story OR divide it in to 2 books. Story was good till it kept going on and on about his "tarse"(male organ).

I feel sorry for myself for even starting this book. It got to the point where I hoped this book would turn into a Greek tragedy. All the characters were underdeveloped, annoying, pathetic and the whole book was unrealistic. I found myself skipping pages. I have never not finished a book, but I came close with this one every other page.

It would have been avery nice romantic story if it wasn't for Nial's overly emphasized obsession with Heather. I found myself saying, "I got the picture, enough already!"

I was confused at certain parts in the book. I actually read the book a second to make sure it wasn't me. Something was just off through out the book.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.A Faerie Fated Forever was a fun story and has good potential but I would like to have seen more plot and less fevered hormones. I actually became tired of the poor Laird's response to every thought, look, and touch. It's my sincere hope he won't need to go into battle because after continuously lifting one sword, he'll be too spent to lift the other to defend himself.

However, I found myself laughing at the sheer VOLUME of love scenes that didn't seem character driven, merely contrived. There is absolutely no way two people could have EVER fondled each other to near orgasm on the dance floor of Almack's. The story would also have benefited from some actual period dialogue and convention...I found myself cringing at some of the 21st century colloquialisms that the 'Scottish Highland Laird' randomly dropped. A promising writer who deserves a read.

This was a fun read! I loved everything about it except for how the author would stay true to Scottish language of the day but then switch to modern day words of endearment. Otherwise very exciting action & romance filled book.
