Like the air being let out of a balloon, the pleasure and quality of Highland Beast rapidly diminished. And I'm sorry to say that because I was pretty excited to get into this book at the very beginning.The world building was very basic and very poorly done. Like an outline, with no substance. There wasn't a lot of background about the witch, who she was, why she did what she did. No motive, no nothing. Just a bunch of sex, which was pretty good and half way decent, until I realized that was all there was going to be.I found myself wanting the book to end, which is really sad being that it was only about seventy pages long. The dialogue was really bad and so borderline cheesy that I found myself rolling my eyes near the end.And don't even get me started on the character development. I don't remember once being told any facts or real details aside from her being an empath and that she felt lonely/rejected all the time.Overall, not the worst book I've read, but by far, definitely not the best.
