Description To Books Stealing Kathryn (Gatherers #2)

The first couple chapters of this book, I thought, “Uh-oh, for the first time I’m not going to like a Jacquelyn Frank book.” I was disappointed, to say the least. And also premature in my thoughts.

I actually should have known better, because I enjoy the worlds she creates with dreams, the human mind, and her characters. The way this book starts out with the hero and his mirror and how he kidnaps Kathryn wasn’t working for me. It made Adrian seem too bizarre and the story darker than I usually like. But I’m glad I hung on.

Adrian is a keeper of treasures, beautiful items he’s collected over the years as he’s taken the negative energy from humans’ dreams that his people desperately need to survive. So when he finds Kathryn in her dreams, he’s so taken with her that he continues to go back to her when there’s no need. And then he decides to add her to his collection.

And that’s literally. He puts her in the same room, locks her in, going back to look often as he does with any of his treasures. Of course, Kathryn is not liking it one bit, though at first she feels sorry for the misshapen creature until she discovers he’s her captor. Fearing her father and sister will die of their illness before she can return home, Kathryn finally succumbs to a deep sleep after pounding her hands raw on the door that no one ever opens to release her so she can go home.

After a failed attempt by Adrian and his twin, Aerlyn, who has the opposite assignment for their people of collecting good, positive energy, to manipulate Kathryn through her dreams to believe she’s mending from an accident and will be home with her family soon, Adrian and Kathryn begin to spend more time together and he’s amazed that she’s no longer afraid of him, though his temper is still fierce but his visage is beginning to return to its former self.

Called before their governing body for his behavior, Adrian claims Kathryn is his kindra, his one true mate, the woman destined only for him. He is given a week to make the claim true, but he will never force Kathryn into such an intimate situation until she’s ready, if she ever is. But seeing himself return to normal, to the man he used to be, Adrian believes she really is his kindra, despite the doubt from all others.

Once it becomes clear what Adrian has given up for his people and when the changes in him occur because of Kathryn’s kindness and ultimate love, I couldn’t help but love this hero. The scenes between them are at times volatile and then at others the emotion just emanates from Adrian as he struggles to keep his word to Kathryn and his temper under control.

Ms. Frank is one of those authors for me who gives a reader something unique every time, and I was clearly short-sighted with this book to doubt the story and the characters so early. Adrian is that scarred hero, inside and out, that I love to read. If I had followed my first instinct to perhaps put the book down, I would never have met the true Adrian and what he’s capable of.

I’ve learned my lesson.

Piece Based On Books Stealing Kathryn (Gatherers #2)

Hot hot hotAbduction fantasy I. The dream world. Very spicy. It had a Good ending, interesting world building. I liked this book.

If you are into slightly dark and twisted paranormal romances, this book is definitely for you! When I first started Stealing Kathryn, I was kind of put off by the depiction of the main character...of course, that was before I realized this was a twisted re-telling of Beauty and the Beast.I very much like Frank's writing style and I found her world creation and creativity intriguing. The story can stand alone; however, it is better if you read the first Gatherer's story as the characters from

I read this book before I read book one. I did enjoy it, even though it went along with most romances. It did have that extra umph with it though. The plot of twins controlling good and bad dreams through a mirror was original. Kathryn was pretty darn understand person if you ask me. But all in all she wanted out anyway.The Beast as most call him, has always had some sort of soft spot. hence his treasure room.Overall this review is short. I enjoyed it as much as her other books. recommend if you

Sandman. Angus. Morpheus. This one man has many names in the many lands of Earth. He longs to be called by his own name, Adrian. An other worldly crash course on beauty and the beast. He was the beast of legend that put the terror in night-terrors. He was the one that stole into your dreams and caused it all to break apart. After many, many years of harvesting the energy his people needed, it took it tole on who he was and his appearance. He had two people that knew him for who he was before and

A little difficult start

This books was an amazing look at a old tale. Beauty and the beast in a dark fantasy world that leaves the reader hungry for more. I was tempted to call out from work to finish the book. The characters have current and important issues that will leave you not only rooting for these two misfits, but looking at your own life. This is a must read. :)

in the beginning I was really worried. it could have gone downhill fast. a few times-- I thought it was about to. luckily it turned out alright. I even like it better than the first. at least in this story I didn't want to kick either of the main characters in the face. (unlike asia, in the first book).
