His Enchantment is apparently the prequel to a series of popular books by the author. I never read anything by Cosby before, but it is not necessary to read the others to understand this one. In fact, it was well after I finished the book before I discovered there were anymore. Quite possibly it was when I was putting my rating into Goodreads.

His Enchantment is one of the many romance novels out there that centers around a man in a kilt. Sure, some of the seem to do better than others, but this is a trend that has been going on for a long time and it doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon. Is it the accents? Is it actually the kilts? This is a popular trend that I can't get behind as fully as other people seem to. Scottish, Australian, Italian, American, when it comes to romance novels, they all seem the same to me.

In this particular rendition, the heroine is a fairy who's trying to figure out who attacked her people when she stumbles upon the human who will obviously be the love of her life. Because fae and human are not supposed to mix. The human, on the other hand, is looking for his missing liege and wants the fae to help. The two fall madly in lust with each other, but there are so many hindrances to their love. Her honor guard. His sense of duty. Her arranged marriage to anther fae. Most of the time, the plot got discarded in favor of the heroes angsting about their love for each other and how it can never be realized. This is a romance novel. We all know how this is going to end.

My biggest gripe with the book was the fiancee. He shows up at the end for two paragraphs only to be promptly disintegrated by the big bad. Literally.

His Enchantment isn't a bad book. But it's not going to be on the list of the best books I read during the year either.
