"Lover Avenged" is another good read in this series. However, "Lover Awakened" is still my favorite in the series. This book in the series gives us Rehv and Ehlena's story along with the start of John and Xhex and what's going on between them. This book is full on non-stop action and of course I love how the brothers, the king and their shellan stay involved in the books. A lot of secrets about Rehv's family are exposed in this book; what he truly is, how he came to be and what he actually did to protect his family. I love that this series is has strong vampire males and their shellan are as strong as the men they stand behind and it's even better that there are moments that make you laugh out loud. There are a lot of books in the series but they are definitely worth reading. You are bound to fall in love with one of the brothers is not all. I loved Zsadist story in "Lover Awakened" but Hollywood definitely make things much more interesting and funny.
