Monday, March 13, 2006 Lover Eternal  Still jazzing on J. R. Ward's vampire series. I'm usually not too game on mucho macho alpha males, but these vamps rock! OK, they have some madcrazy names: Phury, Rhage, Tohrment, Vischous, Wrath, and Zhadist (each of whom will have his own story; so far, we've seen Wrath in Dark Lover and now we have Rhage's story in Lover Eternal). The author has been ragged enough about the weird spellings.As a rule, I don't read vamp romances so I have nothing to compare this series to. I do, however, like the original way the author has worked the stale mythology, creating two species with the divided attributes of the vampire. The "lessers" represent the bloodthirsty soullessness and undeadness of the vampire, while the "Brotherhood," the true "warriors" are males with superhuman strength, fangs and the need to feed blood from their own kind, not from humans and not for killing. The pheromones fly in this tale of Rhage, the warrior with a literal beast within that is awakened upon extreme emotion and pain. Cursed and destined to be alone, Rhage happens upon a human female and is immediately pulled beyond reason to her. Rhage, the physically beautiful vamp, has never had problems with getting a woman - until he meets Mary Luce. Rhage's quandary - how can he win this woman who resists his charms and eventually divulge what he is? As hard as his secret is, Mary has an equally devastating secret of her own: she is dying and nothing can heal her. Rhage's and Mary's story evolves from two beings cursed to solitude who eventually find one another and their salvation. And oh yeah, the luuvvv scenes are smokin'! Read excerpt chapters.
