Oh my, why can I not keep this smile off my face. I just finished reading Lover Eternal and I have to say that I just escaped into a world in which I ENVY the mates of these Brothers! Before I get into this one, let me just say that I'm still reeling from the first book "Dark Lover". I felt that nothing could compare, but when an author like JR Ward emerges...WATCH OUT! After reading this book, I'm going to just stop messing around, buy them all with confidence, and read them as quickly as my ey Oh my, why can I not keep this smile off my face. I just finished reading Lover Eternal and I have to say that I just escaped into a world in which I ENVY the mates of these Brothers! Before I get into this one, let me just say that I'm still reeling from the first book "Dark Lover". I felt that nothing could compare, but when an author like JR Ward emerges...WATCH OUT! After reading this book, I'm going to just stop messing around, buy them all with confidence, and read them as quickly as my eyes will let me....I encourage you to do the same.

Here's the bottom line...I don't know exactly why Rhage choses Mary....maybe it's because of her voice, her courage, destiny, chance, I just don't know, but it just doesn't matter. The fact is that Rhage CHOSES her. Boy, what would it be like to be chosen by a member of this clan. Once a brother choses a mate...it is an all-consuming, forever, intense, passionate, exclusive, loyal, and love that is unlike "human" type of love. One of the best things about this series is that although the Brotherhood are some tough, mean warriors, with their mates they are committed, protective, and irresistible.

I'll try to be brief in my synopsis...Rhage is the best fighter and best looking of the brother's, but he ticked off the Scribe Virgin and ended up with a curse that causes him to turn into a dragon of sorts when his emotions get too out of control. He is so yummy (I just can't think of a better word right now)! Mary is sick. Literally. She is not drop dead gorgeous, but she has a heart of gold and is fiercely protective of those she loves. Rhage commits to her early..really from the first moment he meets her, but Mary is slower to come around. As I said before, she's sick, and doesn't know what her future holds. When she finally succumbs to Rhage....turn off the heat in your home!

Rhage will do anything for this woman...be beaten, go against his Brothers, leave everything...It's what makes these books so great. Really don't hesitate...if you are reading this review...thank you, but you should really be reading this series instead. It will bite you, reel you in, and never let go. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS! ...more

Awww such a cute book! I am not really into paranormal or vampire staff, so I was kind of surprised when I found myself crying in the end lol. Rhage is adorable! This book is a VAST improvement from the previous one and I am going to start the next book right now. I just wish J.R Ward would stop calling the characters' private parts 'sex' and use the real names instead. It just sounds so stupid and puke worthy to me when she writes staff like 'His sex stirred...' lol I mean seriously? Did she wr ...more

Amazing. This is definitely 5 stars series. I was falling in love with the first book. Now second book, I’m head over heels. Loved the plot, a little predictable but this is one of the book that I’d willing to overlook the flaws. I love all of the old characters, of course Rhage, and the new, Mary Luce, Bella, and John Matthew. I can’t wait to read about the newly introduced newbies. I definitely continue one to read the next books. I just have to try to pace myself a little slower. Don’t want t ...more

By the end of the book I was in tears. Rhage was not the warrior I had figured he'd be. I assumed he'd be a playboy, which is how the other brothers saw him, but was surprised to find such a huge heart under that tough rogue exterior. Definitely more emotionally charged then book 1, but oh so wonderful. I can't get over how well written these books are! ...more
