Pam asked this question about A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2):
THE BIGGEST ISSUE HERE IS: WHAT DID RHYSAND SAW IN FEYRE THAT MADE HIM 'RIGID AND ACTUALLY STUMBLE"? ANY THEORIES?
A. I am ok with any sort of twist she throws our way as long as it is NOT a love triangle with Rhys. Well, I don't care if he has a crush on her, as long…moreI am ok with any sort of twist she throws our way as long as it is NOT a love triangle with Rhys. Well, I don't care if he has a crush on her, as long as she doesn't actually get tempted by him, or gods forbid, she's his mate...

I like the idea that she could be all powerful - we are after all expecting an invasion from the King of Hybern at some point so it would be cool if Feyre is now so powerful that she's the only one who could stand up to him (or that she's a key in the war against Hybern). I feel like that is perhaps hinted at in the blurb: "a greater evil looms--and she might be key to stopping it".

A little bit off topic but i saw someone make a comment before about how the love between Tamlin and Feyre is not real because Tamlin doesn't fully love her, he was just desperate to save his people (and himself). And I just want to make a point that I REALLY don't think that's the case - that is something that some people critique the Beauty and the Beast story saying that of course he "loved" her, she had the power to break his curse and turn him back into a human... But don't forget, Beast let Belle go home, knowing that he essentially doomed himself to being a beast forever, BECAUSE he loved Belle... Tamlin sent Feyre away BECAUSE he loved her and he much preferred that she survived than put her life at risk by having her stay 2-3 more days... Sure, at the beginning, it might have been only a matter of trying to woo her because she had the power to break his curse, but I think he truly did fall for her! He said that he had been with many female faes but he felt a connection with Feyre because she knew the weight of having others depend on you. He formed a connection with her...

So I REALLY hope he does truly love her and this is not something that the author is going to work in.. Same with Feyre being Rhys mate -please please please! Let Tamlin and Feyre be end game!!!

I like the other point someone else mentioned of Elain being Rhys' girl (in terms of the Hades and Perspehone retelling)... I think Rhys needs someone especially soft and good and pure (which Feyre isn't!) to temperate him... (less)
