Publisher's summary

J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood novels have introduced readers/listeners to a "different, creative, dark, violent, and flat-out amazing" (All About Romance) world.

Now, as the vampire warriors defend their race against their slayers, one male's loyalty to the Brotherhood will be tested - and his dangerous mixed blood revealed.

Rehvenge has always kept his distance from the Brotherhood - even though his sister is married to a member - for he harbors a deadly secret that could make him a huge liability in their war against the lessers. As plots within and outside of the Brotherhood threaten to reveal the truth about Rehvenge, he turns to the only source of light in his darkening world: Ehlena, a vampire untouched by the corruption that has its hold on him - and the only thing standing between him and eternal destruction.

Listen to another Black Dagger Brotherhood chiller.

My Favorite book in the series thus far

Would you consider the audio edition of Lover Avenged to be better than the print version?

Yes as it brings you into their world

What was one of the most memorable moments of Lover Avenged?

the blowing up of the club; the spider part was a little freaky

Have you listened to any of Jim Frangione’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes this one seems to bring you in deeper to the story line

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Yes I laughed and cried but mostly it was intense always wanting to hear the next chapter

Any additional comments?

My favorite book so far!

The lost brother

Revenge is the most interesting character, full of live and emotions. The brotherhood shows acceptance and Revenge shows that flows and mistakes can help rectify future actions. A moralistic story in the good and evil battle, full of sensuality and action.

Jam Packed!!!

So much happened in this book there is no way to give a full review on it without a bunch of spoilers. So all I'm going to say is 1st , always be prepared for the unexpected. 2nd, strong love can overcome any obstacle or misunderstanding. 3rd never be surprised by the loyalty of your friends. 4th you can do or overcome anything you set your will to and lastly JR Ward is an amazing author and this series is the bomb!!!!!!

Lover Avenged

Book 7 in the series continues the storyline of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, updating us on all the Brothers lives in the fight for justice in Caldwell, NY. This book introduces us to the love story between Rhev & Ehlena. This book was extremely long - like 75 chapters long! There is so much always going on in this world! I love it as much as I don’t. It can be all consuming and overwhelming at times before you get your sliver o f hope. I know the world they live in is dark, but would it be possible for the author to allow us some lighter moments for the characters? Their physical beatings in the everlasting battle with the lessers should be punishment enough without the extra torture snd self hatred you give them. Just saying. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lots of twists and turns

More revelation and change in this book than any of the others. Some of it made me angry. Some of it scared me. She is just a brilliant writer and I love her books. This series is one of my absolute favorites.

As good as the others, but, the EDITING!! Geez!

Can you say William Shatner lives in whoever edited this performance? Everytime I expected, and frankly NEEDED a pause, there wasn't even a breath, just mow it on through... It made the performance sound stilted at times, rushed at others.

Otherwise, another great installment in the series.
