If there ever was a book to rip you apart, tear you to shreds, and love it cover to cover all the same, it's Lover Eternal. 
 It's been a while since I've cried and hurt for characters like this. I feel completely wrung out after reading this. I completely understand why people love these books so much. 
 Usually when you read a series of books, especially in the vampire realm, the books usually take a dive for the worse as the series progresses. But this book is actually better than Dark Lover - and I did not think that was possible because that book was pretty damn near perfect. 
 I don't have words for how much I love these characters. All of them, not just the main players in this book. 
 Again, I want to dive right into the next book, but I know I should take a break and process it by reading something lighter. Because these books? They're heavy.
