In Caldwell, New York, war rages between vampires and their slayers. There exists a secret band of brothers-six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Now the cold heart of cunning predator will be warmed against its will.
Ruthless and brilliant, Vishous son of the Bloodletter possesses a destructive curse and a frightening ability to see the future. As a pretrans growing up in this father's war camp, he was tormented and abused. As a member of the Brotherhood he has no interest in love or emotion, only the battle with the Lessening Society. But when a mortal injury puts him in the care of a human surgeon. Dr. Jane Whitcomb compels him to reveal his inner pain and taste true pleasure for the first time-until a destiny he didn't choose takes him into a future that cannot include her...
I enjoyed reading Lover Unbound, however not as much as the first four books I've read in the series. It had a good plot and lots of great surprises but I am left feeling that Vishous has been cheated out of love and having a real mate. It was interesting to me, to have been given a very unconventional ending but I am somewhat disappointed. I guess for me, I just don't see how Jane and Vishous work out as a real couple now that she is a "ghost". I loved being able to visualize the past of what all Vishous went through to become the warrior he was today and the cool little twist as to what happened to him in the beginning of the book. I'm glad I read it, and will, without a doubt keep reading the series, however I have a feeling that this will probably be my least favorite book that J.R. has written.
