Exceptional Series

I have seen reviews where some are disappointed in the outcome. Not even. This is unpredictable, fascinating and hot.

I love the series

This series is amazing my husband brought home a copy from active duty and I started reading it and it was just wow
But the guy reading it is not even exciting to listen too
He sounds like a priest trying to guilt trip you into confusing you read naughty things
I think they need to re-record these with different people for each of the brothers
Because the thought of him reading book 5 or 3 makes me a cringe those were the best.

Awesomeness!

Love JR Ward & Jim Frangione's performance. Phury's story is the toughest to make it through because it's so well written and such pain comes to life in it.

amazing

this story has the best ending ever! I've read 3 times already. I'll probably read it again after the beast

Well done!

I really love this series. The characters are enjoyable and fun to read about. I like how each story has it's own main plot and each is accompanied by subplots that grow, develop and become more complex with each new addition to the series. In this one the main couplde is Phury and Cormia, but you get to see a lot of the other characters in the series. I can't wait to see what comes next. I am most excited to read John and Xhex, Qhuinn and Blay's stories.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Below are my thoughts throughout the reading. Quite reading here if you want to avoid some spoilers.

I really don't like the Omega and I bet I already know who his son is.

Love the 'Big Love' comment Phury made. LOL!!!

John's comments about Reversalis and Limpasil were hilarious.

So, the narrator has decided to start pronouncing some words differently in this book than in the previous ones. Example; instead of pronouncing 'Glimera' like 'Fly' he's now pronouncing it like 'Glimmer'.

Wow! Phury needs some serious psychological help.

Phew! Xhex and JM need to find a room.

Poor Tohr! Hope he gets better and finds his way home.

Never realized before how much of a self-sabotager and kind of a cry baby Phury can be.

DO NOT TAKE ANOTHER, PHURY!!!

I knew it. Lash is pure evil and now there's proof.

I do hope that everything works out for Bella, Z and their baby. It would be too horrible if he lost them after everything else he's been forced to survive.

I love that Bella and Cormia are growing closer. I bet the two of them would make perfect soul sisters.

I really don't want Phury to be permanately removed from the bortherhood, but I understand that his destiny may lie somewhere else, in another purpose. I just can't figure out what that would be yet.

I can't believe what's happening to Qhuinn. It's just so unfair.

Phury, give in to the temptation of Cormia already. You may surprise yourself and finally realize she is your one.

Phury is an idiot. Instead of exploring his feelings with Cormia he informs her that he is replacing her with another. Plus, his eternal martar bit has got to stop. I wish Z had kicked his butt while he had the chance.

I'm so happy for Qhuinn. I knew Wrath would come through.

OH my gosh!!!!! Why, oh why? Why do you continue to reject the thought of being with Cormia. You both want it and yet you still continue to deny the truth.

Wow, miscommunication and misunderstanding are running rampant in the mansion. First, Phury misunderstanding what Cormia was so upset about after their first time together and then John misunderstanding what he saw in her room later. While I understand and commend John's desire to avenge Cormia, why can't people just talk or ask questions before jumping to conclusions and assuming they know what's happening.

Phury is such an idiot. He does the stupidest things in the name of punishing himself. He insists on taking blame for everything bad that's happened, conviced he is so powerful and so important that he can actually influence everything around him. I mean that's pretty arogant behavior. I understand he feels guilty for some things, but over the years he seems to have developed a bit of an obsessive complex and he really needs a good, swift kick in the backside.

I am glad Q and Blay seem to have buried the hatchet.

I hope the trio ( Q, Blay and John) take care while out fighting, especially since none of them are truly ready.

It's funny that Cormia thinks going into seclusion is the best way to get over Phury when in reality all it's gonna do is give her an overabundance of time to think about him and what he might be doing at every second.

Lash is crazy, crazier than I originally thought.

Layla shows a moment of goodness when she went to get Cormia when Phury needed her. Well done to her.

Cormia is exactly what Phury needs. She brings light to his darkness and calm to his chaos.

Good boy, Phury. Well done. Kick that wizard to the curb.

Thank goodness. Tohr is back, though I'm sure the road in front of him is still going to be a long and rough one.

Phury has an interesting idea about how the lives of the Chosen and the Prime Male should go.

Lassiter seems like an interesting character. Looking forward to learning more about him.

The scenes between Tohr and John in Tohr's room and between Wrath and Phury in Wrath's study towards the end of the book, I think in chapter Fifty-Two, made me tear up.

WTG, John. Show that woman what you're made of and what you have to offer.

Please let the author kill off Lash. I really don't like that crazy SOB!!!!

So proud of Phury. It takes real strength to do what he's trying to do, to get better.

WTG, John. Look at you affecting Xhex enough to make her think of you when she's alone.

OMGosh, get her away from the kitchen quickly. She's gonna burn the house down. LOL!!!

Nalla, yay. So happy for Z and Bella. Though, I do wish there wasn't such a huge valley between Phury and Z now. I do hope they manage to bridge the gap.

I do wish that Phury was still a member of the brotherhood, but I understand that his destiny lies with the Chosen and the changes coming for them all.

I love how music is the language that Z uses to express his feelings.

The ending was amazing. I love how the brothers came to see Phury, to let him know that, even though he isn't actively a member of the brotherhood anymore, he is and always will be their brother, their family.

So glad that the brothers can see Phury is truly trying to get better, to be better.

Worthy book

Lover Enshrined is an interesting story of the Brother Fury. As always there is back story and set-up for future books. Times are even more turbulent for the Brothers. Will Lash’s new development continue it’s current course? What will happen with Torh? Interesting times.

Still Addicted

It was a little hard to follow at first was a little all over the place but the Ending was Sweet..
