Product Description

Product Description

When Hugh MacCarrick was a young man he did something very reckless with Jane Weyland, the daughter of his superior. While she merely used him as a summer flirtation to practise her wiles on, he fell in love. This was ill-advised because Hugh's family harboured dangerous secrets and was shadowed by a deadly curse. Even if these obstacles were absent, Hugh knew a woman like Jane - heart-breakingly beautiful, rich, and from a prominent English family - would never marry a Scot with no title or prospects. So, to avoid the impossible temptation to kiss her and the misery of seeing her marry another, he left the country. Now ten years later, Hugh is wealthy, an assassin in Her Majesty's Service, and still secretly in love with Jane. When he receives a missive that her life is in danger and rushes to protect her, will he be able to resist the overwhelming need to make her his? Jane Weyland is furious when her father summons Hugh to London to protect her. Clearly her father has lost his mind, even with his assurances of a speedy annulment when things die down, but why would Hugh agree to this insanity after she all but begged him to say no? How dare he do this to her?Her fury stoked, she decides to torment him just as she had all those years ago with soft touches, whispers and seductive play - that he can do nothing about it without risking marriage to her, a consequence he'd made clear he didn't want. But she soon discovers that Hugh is not the gentle young man he used to be and that toying with the fever-pitched desires of a hardened warrior might get her burned.

5.0 out of 5 stars All I could Desire!!!, 19 Jun 2007
By Mrs. H. Collins "hellibobs" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ms Cole has done it again, with the second instalment of her triology about three warrior like brothers (the MacCarrick's). Brillant stuff, passion filled excitement from one page to the next. I just couldn't put this book down.

This tale tells of Hugh, the second eldest brother (and I think the most sensitive and nicest character of the three) of his struggle to overcome his feelings of love and desire for Jane Weyland (the heroine of the piece). For Hugh his feelings for Jane can never be fulfilled due to the fact that his forefathers, father, himself and his brothers have all been cursed by "The Book of Fates": It foretells that the three brothers will never know love or have children and if they try and marry it will end in death to the one they love.

Hugh has been in-love with Jane for many, many, many a year and has fought a very tough and heroic battle trying to keep his hands to himself and by doing so not let Jane's fate end in death. Finally the two are thrown together as Hugh tries to keep Jane safe and out of the reach of a opium taking, delirious, mad man, Grey, who is out for revenage against her father for trying to have him killed.

Hugh and Jane are very deeply attracted to one another and Cole has one passionate and steamy scene after another as Hugh is tempted beyond endurance by the sexy and deliberately provocative Ms Weyland, who doesn't give a toss about his family curse!

A great read, as are all Ms Cole's tales. Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Phew, it's getting steamy in here!!, 1 July 2007
By Skargasm (East Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
  
Hugh is gorgeous - no two ways about it - but it is so fabulous to see how he handles his 'Jane' now that she is a woman!! This was a steamy raunchy ride, with a dangerous sideplot that made sure you realised Jane was no normal 'damsel in distress'. There's something about these McCarrick brothers!!

5.0 out of 5 stars "if you desire" then read this!, 2 Aug 2008
By Mrs. M. J. Clarke "MANDY J" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read the first instalment of the mac carrick brothers and absolutly loved it i wondered if "if you desire" would be as good as the first, well i need not have worried it was fab. The story tells of Hugh,and jane, she being the love that must not be, but for the last ten years has been in every thought and memory, she was a tease,but secretly loved hugh. He was obsessed,but new he couldnt have her because of a "curse" that had passed down the family line to himself and his brothers!Passion builds between them again and ignites after years apart, knowing that its wrong to have jane, but being so right, Hugh promises to protect jane against an old enemy "grey" twisted by drugs and battered by war he swears to kill the one thing that is most precious and dear to hugh, "JANE". Can he keep her safe, can he keep his hands off her body, that has been haunting him for ten years?. sexual tention between the two builds to bursting point, can they ever fulfill their desire for one another and survive. A great page turner, and having read this book in under a week i recomend it to any die hard romance reader who believes in heros, sit back and lose your self in yet another great read. enjoy. i did.
