“She paused, waited for him to catch his breath, then notched him at her opening.”

Seriously?! No foreplay?! I hate these things

“Good. Perhaps any other woman who dares touch you will think twice.”

This was utterly pointless; they won’t really be able to differentiate this bit of crystal from any of the others, seeing as when he is cut he doesn’t really bleed so much as grow more crystal. Or did Hamm forget that?

“He lifted her into his arms as if she weighed nothing. Sorcha had seen him swing a sword taller than her, perhaps she felt like a feather to him.”

This is at least the second time she’s saying this; get over it.

“Every fiber of her being yearned for him to touch her.”

Really? Because I just lost any interest I might’ve had with his bull-headedness and the argument. Honestly, she hasn’t even had naked time with him yet and already he’s saying she’s his. I know a guy like this and it irritates me every time he gets delusional like this.

“There is no going back from this Sorcha. If you make this choice, I cannot stop.”

That’s not rapey at all...

“I forget who I speak with.”

This is why I can’t take this speech seriously. Sometimes it’ll be quite modern or they’ll all of a sudden be really formal. Then the grammar isn’t even correct; she’s the object in this sentence so it should be:

“I forget to/with whom I speak.”

For Christ’s sake if you’re going to be pretentious at least do it right.

“She couldn’t tell Stone—Eamonn, she reminded herself—that she’d met his twin. She refused to issue a warning she wasn’t certain held any weight.”

Moron.

“Although this night felt as though they found each other for the very first time, tomorrow was uncertain.”

Same overly romantic language.

“Their hearts beat as one. Samhain had never been celebrated by such a strong family of people.”

This language just seems fanciful and overly romantic; I can’t take it seriously.
