Lover EnSh was not the best of books. It wasn't bad, but it could have been much better without so many sub-plots. I never bonded with the main characters, Phury and Cormina. At times I forgot that it was their story.

I think what I missed the most in this book which was very evident in the first 3 books, was the bond of the brotherhood. In the end it felt like the original brothers were now old news and this new lot: John, Blay, and Quinn were taking over. It felt like Phury 'retired' from the Brotherhood to baby-sit a household of women. Not a fitting career ending for a once proud and fierce warrior. I also did not like the ick factor that seems to be creeping into the last two books. Barb wire, venom...takes the romance right out of a story for me. I must be honest; as much as I am a fan of this series, the last two books kind of sucked the excitement right out of me and I no longer do the re-reads or run out and buy the books when it's first out. Thank god for libraries.

Well, this book is really really different from the rest of the books. I guess its kinda good cause its the sixth book and you dont want to read the same plot over and over. The romance did cut down a lot, its more about action and bad situations the brothers are facing. Phury, as the previous review, is forgotten a little cause John and his friends take most of the book but never the less, its a good read. Cant wait for Johns book. The books ends like if your watching a movie and BOOM!! it gets cut off. It leaves to many darn questions in the open, the end is not that good but well, its still a good read. You can tell J.R. Ward is trying something new a little here.

Well, like I said, its a good read still cause this author writes GOOD!! Its completly a different flavor. I give it a 7 out of 10 cause it leaves too many small plots and questions with no answers.
