Title: A Very Sexy Set Up
Review: Dark Lover keeps readers turning pages well into the night with its steamy love scenes. Ward does an excellent job writing romance scenes without being too cheesy, however one fault I found with her writing was relying on cliches to establish character identity. Specifically, the dialect of the brotherhood too often reminded me of texting tweens and overly macho, high-school football players. With the star female role of Beth, Ward often used supporting characters to tell the audience had magnificent she is, rather than creating a space for Beth to prove her worth to the audience.JR Ward managed to take her first book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and introduce an abundant amount of characters, each with their own history. Her character establishment was her biggest achievement in Book 1 and ensures that Book 2 will be read equally fast due to the readers end interest in many of the minor characters.
