The fact that he enjoyed it (even though he hated that he enjoyed it) made it worse. Incest always icks me out, even in a situation like this. Rehv has had an arrangement with his half-sister and “Princess” of the symptaths for years. There was nothing spectacular about her, except her unwavering support of Rehv by the end of the book. I would have to agree, Ehlena wasn’t memorable. I took that to mean that she wasn’t memorable. Rehv/Ehlena: I think I read a review where it said something like “Ehlena is a typical JRW heroine”. So how can you make a character like that a hero? That’s what made him so interesting.Īs usual, there are many POV’s here so I’m going to break it down with my thoughts. He loves his sister and his family, but the guy is a drug dealer, fcol. He’s one of those characters that walks the line between black and white. Which made me a little bummed, b/c I’ve always liked Rehv.

After the disaster that Lover Enshrined, I had little to no expectations. I didn’t expect a lot with Lover Avenged and maybe that’s why I liked it so much. I’ve seen rabidness before (hello Edward and Bella), but the BDB rabidness just surpassed anything I’ve seen. I have to be honest, outside the actual books, the rabidness of JRW’s fans is an extreme turn-off. After Lover Unbound, I gave up my BDB fan club card. When Lover Eternal came out, I was just as in love with the author and the series. I read Dark Lover way back in October of 2005 and was incredibly impressed and drawn into the amazing world that J.R. As plots within and outside of the Brotherhood threaten to reveal the truth about Rehvenge, he turns to the only source of light in his darkening world, Ehlena, a vampire untouched by the corruption that has its hold on him-and the only thing standing between him and eternal destruction. Rehvenge has always kept his distance from the Brotherhood-even though his sister is married to a member, for he harbors a deadly secret that could make him a huge liability in their war against the lessers.
