*SPOILER FREE*Opening Line "The bastard's taking the bridge! He's mine!"Wow, I honestly don’t know where to begin with this review. To say that this was good is an understatement. To say that it knocked me on my ass and left me a drained, emotional wreck, is far closer to the truth. Yup, LOVER REBORN did me in, talk about your gauntlet of emotions, I mean I expected some angst but jeez! I cried (I mean really cried) I laughed, I sighed, I swore, I groaned and I gasped but in the end I also smile...
(Spoilers are hidden) “The quick and the dead are all the same.Everyone’s just looking for home.” - LASSITER Hear ye! Hear ye! Leteth it be known that on this day, March 31st, 2012, I solemnly vow that I shall never doubt the WARDen again! So, now that that's out of the way, my thoughts on the book... I wasn’t sure she could do it. Pffffft! Silly me. I didn't think she could pull it off. *sigh* Whatever was I thinking? And had I had actually considered skipping this book...
Well Xcor and Layla might be hooking up.and than Quinn and Layla trying 2 get knock up. SMH. Anyways the book was awesome. All of JR Wards books are awesome. When Thor let go of his Wellsie that was so emotional. And opening his heart for Autumn was so beautiful. It had me crying.Can't wait for Quinn and Blay book. It's about time!!!!!! I know one thing John and Xhexania sure did have some very intensive sex. They both out did Thor and Autumn. Lmao!!!!
Third "re-read": 31.07.2021 This book reminded me of why I stopped read this series after book twelve. I really can't stand Xcor and the Xcor/Layla/Qhuinn storyline. That said, I skipped everything that didn't have anything with Q & B. Second re-read: 23.08.2019 Only re-read for Qhuinn and Blay's parts. Nothing more. Meaning; I skipped the rest. I still don't like the Layla storyline with Qhuinn though. I wish it was cut out of it. Re-read: 13.01.2017 Though I cannot really consider this
Just a fair warning: This book buttfucked me raw without lube (~*spoiler*~ pun intended) and destroyed my heart and sanity. My feelings are all over the place and I need to vent. Cursing, spoilers and inappropriate gifs ahead.TORH/NO'ONESummary: SEXSEXSEXSEXSEXSEXANGSTANGSTANGSTANGSTA year ago when Ward announced Tohr was next, I got so mad. It was too soon for him, it felt rushed, he wasn't ready, she was fucking him up, etc. And sadly, I still stand on that.And on that note, let me clarify som...
With Lover Reborn, Ward partly redeems herself for last book. I can't say she's back to her old level though. To me, the book was a 4 star start and a 2 star finish. There were lots of okay moments, some very beautiful moments and some seriously contrived, idiotic and redundant moments. So I ended up with 3 stars. Despite this I think this book came too soon and didn't do justice to Tohr, his needs, and his relationship with neither Wellsie or No'One. More on that later, I'm going to start with
(*big satisfied sigh*)Well, I was a little worried about how this book (Tohr's story) might play out. Tohr has been in misery over losing his Wellsie for just over 15 months (has it only been 15 months? It seems so much longer...) Anyway, in this book he has to move on and get past his grief because Wellsie is (view spoiler)[ stuck in the "In Between"--a kind of purgatory, and she's not in "The Fade", the happy place where vampires go when they die. If Tohr doesn't snap to it, Wellsie and their
“Life was short, no matter how many days you were granted. And people were precious, each and every one, no matter how many you were lucky enough to have in your life. And love... love was worth dying for.Worth living for, too.” This book is tragic. Tohr has to move on and leave his past behind if he want his shellin to rest in peace, it's not easy when she is the only thing he can hold on to even he passed the storms, it still hurts like hell for him. I didn't expected too much about this b
5 BDB Obsessed Stars! “God, I miss you,” he said in a voice that cracked. “Every night. Every day…” Even though Tohr’s shellan has been gone for a while, it still hasn’t gotten any easier for the brother. He is heartbroken, devastated, all he can do is fight the lessers, fight to avenge his shellans death. That’s all he has the strength for. We meet No’One in book 8 (JM and Xhex’s book) She is Xhex’s mahmen, and she has been staying on this side to try to form a connection with h
My #1 anticipated release for 2012 is Lover Reborn by J.R. Ward. Last year when I read Lover Unleashed, I had said I wasn’t as excited with this series as I used to be, and my crack like addiction had dwindled. Well, I was lying because the moment J.R. posted excerpts of Lover Reborn on her Facebook page, I was dragged back in. And now, I am fully enamored again.Ward has me doing back flips in glee already for the eleventh book because it’s going to be about Qhuinn and Blay, known better as Qhua...
Verily, Ward, you hath redeemed thyself in mine eyes.Lover Unleashed was disappointing for me on several levels. But I knew that, if Ward did it right, Tohrment's book had the potential to be the best installment to the series in a long time. I've wanted him to find peace and healing ever since that fateful scene at the end of Lover Awakened, but I knew it would take time. And now that his time has finally come, I'm pleased to say that Ward doesn't disappoint.Tohrment & No'One:I know a lot of pe...
5 stars – Paranormal/Vampire/UF RomanceThoughts Before Reading:When will the WARDen give us Qhuinn’s/Blaylock’s story, dammit?!?!? I don’t give a @*#&$ about Tohr!? I want Qhuay!!!!Thoughts After Reading: This is me coughing up feathers after eating crow because Lover Reborn was sooo much better than I expected. It’s an emotional read that had me shedding serious tears and an a+wesome installment to the series! And now that the Warden has officially announced on Facebook that Blay and Qhu...

Update: lowered to 1 star because I got reminded about how disappointed I am in the wreck that is Tohr's story...Very disappointed. And I'm a HUGE JR Ward fan. I was really looking forward to Tohr's story. If anyone deserved a happy ending it's Tohr. BUT.What the hell????? This book is 2 stars because I love JR's writing style, the other characters that we follow, their continued development. But for the main couple of the story, I'd give this something close to 1 star. It's that bad! Here are a...
"He waited for his conscience to start screaming.He prepared himself for an overwhelming desolation that he had been with another female.He was… ready for something, anything to cough up out of his chest—despair, anger, frustration.All he got was the sense that what had just happened was the beginning, not an end." Lover Reborn is a heartbreaking story, even though it has a happy end.Watching Tohrment and his suffering, trying to let go of Wellsie... It was sad and beautiful at the sa

*sigh* Where to begin?I don't really have much juice left to write a full blown review. This book just kind of...drained me. Here are some thoughts that I'll share, however...(Note that it's pretty much spoiler-free, in my opinion. Possible spoilers have been hidden behind spoiler tags.)1) WRITING: The slang. ARGH, THE SLANG! No matter what ANYONE says or thinks (*coughs* JRW! *coughs*), "Pop-Tarting" is not a word that can be used interchangeably with jerking something upwards. Not at all. Also...
***Bigtime Spoiler Warning. I can’t write this review without them. Sorry!****Super-duper Long Review Disclaimer! I have so much to say!When I started reading this series back around 2005 or 2006, I was drawn into the dark, seductive, dangerous world of JR Ward’s vampires, and something took root in me. I knew I would come back for more when I finished Dark Lover, and so I did. Again and again. Every year, I look forward to a new book in this series, and rightfully so. I believed the culmination...
Read in 2013Find my complete review on my blog here: http://rachybee-the-rest-is-still-unw...Lover Reborn by J.R. Ward tells the tale of Tohr; a broken shell of a Brother, destroyed and altered by the loss of his mate, a man who finally gets his story told. I have to be honest here; Lover Reborn wasn’t my favorite of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books. Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with it. I just struggled to really connect like I wished I could. For some reason I wasn’t as absorbed...
Tohrment (or Tohr) and No’One (or Rosalhynda – her initial name; or Autumn – the name that was given to her by Torh) Life was short, no matter how many days you were granted. And people were precious, each and every one, no matter how many you were lucky enough to have in your life. And love... love was worth dying for.Worth living for, too. Such a sad sad love story. Torhment is heartbroken because his mate Wellsie and his unborn son were killed. Since he knows that if he kills hims...
