"Qhuinn, son of no one, is used to being on his own. Disavowed from his bloodline, shunned by the aristocracy, he has finally found an identity as one of the most brutal fighters in the war against the Lessening Society. But his life is not complete. Even as the prospect of having a family of his own seems to be within reach, he is empty on the inside, his heart given to another.... Blay, after years of unrequited love, has moved on from his feelings for Qhuinn. And it's about time: The male has found his perfect match in a Chosen female, and they are going to have a young--just as Qhuinn has always wanted for himself. It's hard to see the new couple together, but building your life around a pipe dream is just a heartbreak waiting to happen. As he's learned firsthand. Fate seems to have taken these vampire soldiers in different directions, but as the battle over the race's throne intensifies, and new players on the scene in Caldwell create mortal danger for the Brotherhood, Qhuinn finally learns the true definition of courage, and two hearts that are meant to be together finally become one"--… (plus d'informations)

Lovely.... ( )
  ObasiNaomi | Dec 2, 2023 |
Giuro che ho ancora il batticuore. Giuro che nel finale di questo undicesimo appuntamento con La Confraternita del Pugnale Nero arde così tanto amore da rendere impossibile rimanere indifferenti. Giuro che è stato uno dei libri della saga che mi ha fatto più soffrire e gioire.

Qhuinn, dolce e tosto. Ma come si fa a non volergli bene? Odiato e respinto in ogni modo dalla sua famiglia, vaga in cerca di se stesso e di quell'amore che non ha mai avuto e che non riesce a dare e ad accettare. Sempre pronto a fare qualunque cosa per aiutare chi lo ha accolto. E mai preparato a ricevere i ringraziamenti per i suoi gesti da eroe mezzo matto. Vedremo alcuni scorci del doloroso passato di Qhuinn con la sua famiglia e di quanto Blay e i suoi genitori siano stati importanti per lui.
Blay, altruista e ferito. Gli anni di rifiuto da parte di Qhuinn lo hanno costretto a nascondere il suo cuore a pezzi dietro una solida armatura che non ha nessuna intenzione di togliersi. Sapevo che Qhuinn avrebbe dovuto strisciare per conquistarlo...
E infatti. Sappiate che molte fan sono rimaste deluse (e non poco) dal fatto che questi due si mettono insieme solo alla fine. Letteralmente. Il resto è una danza agrodolce di passione e rifiuto, di sincerità e bugie, di azioni altruiste e di azioni folli.
Per me era inevitabile. Dopo tutto quello che è successo, dopo tutto quello che Qhuinn ha fatto a Blay, non mi aspettavo l'idillio dopo 100 pagine.
Adesso spero solo che li rivedremo presto. Così che possa concludersi quello che è iniziato nel finale di Lover at Last.
Altro punto dolente. Le scene di sesso. Soprattutto per chi è abituato a leggere M/M romance o Yaoi. Niente lubrificante. E pochi preliminari. Devo ammettere che la prima scena non mi ha fatto impazzire, ma le altre sono molto belle. Anche se mi sarebbe piaciuto leggerne una faccia-a-faccia. Spero nel futuro... JR leggiti un po' di M/M romance!

Saxton. Che dire. Gentiluomo fino al midollo, si ritrova a dover ammettere che l'amore vero esiste e che – questa volta – non è per lui. Spero tanto che anche lui avrà il suo HEA con qualcuno che sappia apprezzare quanto sia speciale.

Layla. OMG, quanto mi ha fatto stare male con tutta la faccenda della gravidanza – della quale non dico niente per non spoilerare. E quanto mi ha fatto incazzare Havers. JR aveva ragione. Se prima non mi stava simpatico, adesso lo odio profondamente. Odio la sua assurda – tanto più per un uomo di scienza – venerazione per l'Antica Legge, la sua arrogante presunzione. Un motivo in più per amare Qhuinn quando interviene a difendere Layla. Un motivo in più per amare Phury e Jane quando non muovono un muscolo per difendere Havers.

Xcor. Sembra proprio che Layla sarà la sua compagna. Ma... com'è possibile? JR stupiscici! Mi aspetto grandi cose da questi due... Xcor è estremamente pericoloso ed estremamente disturbato. Consapevole di aver messo in moto eventi che non può più arrestare, Xcor tuttavia non riesce a smettere di pensare alla sua Eletta e a come evitarle qualunque pericolo... alleandosi così con un tipo che prospetta uno scenario piuttosto inquietante per Wrath.

Trez. Finalmente ne sappiamo qualcosina di più su di lui e suo fratello iAm. Li adoro entrambi. Anche qui si delinea una storia d'amore tormentata e di difficile successo. È molto bello vedere quanto sia forte il legame tra i due fratelli e tutto quello che iAm è disposto a fare per aiutare Trez. Bello ritrovare anche la loro vecchia accoppiata con Rehv e Xhex.

Assail. Wooooooooooooow!!! Assail è lava bollente, un cattivo vampiro depravato che non si cura di niente e nessuno. Giuro che vi stupirà per quello che è capace di fare per soldi. Anche per lui le cose non sembrano mettersi bene.

E... vorrei parlare di mille altre cose. Ma non posso, altrimenti vi racconto tutto il libro! In conclusione ho adorato Lover at Last. Atteso, sospirato... finalmente è arrivato. Non è perfetto, ma alla fine le parti migliori superano di gran lunga quelle non ottimali. ( )

tbh I skipped everything except for the Blay Qhuinn stuff.

I feel like I'm done with this series.

Was a good ride, though. ( )

So hard not to be addicted to JRW's BDB series! Love... Love... Love Qhuinn & Blay! One of my top 3. M/M, M/F who cares... Ms. Ward has exactly the right recipe... a perfect edgy mix of conflicted characters and relationships, action, and subplots to keep me thoroughly interested... Book after addict ing book! ( )

Ok, so, I love the couple...Blay and qhuinn.. I really do.. but I have such a low threshold for lying. Omission is just as bad. And though on one hand, I can understand what Blay did...or didn't do in this case, at first... on the other hand, I still can't forgive him for his deceit. He caused so much heartache. And everyone defends him. To hell with the pain he caused qhuinn. At least qhuinn owned the pain he caused. Even at the end, when the truth comes out, Blay still didn't apologize. That is what in my opinion, separates the damage done by both males and gives qhuinn not necessarily a get out of jail free card but, more compassion from me over Blay. ( )

Quotes from LAL:

21 March 2013 - Teaser

Reassuming his form in a woodland area south and west of the compound, Qhuinn steeled himself against making any inferences about what had detained the guy— although the fact of the matter was, the fighter had gone up to his room and hadn’t come back. And whereas most accidents happened in the home, it was a good guess that he hadn’t had a slip-and-fall.
Unless Saxton had been playing throw rug on the marble in their bathroom.
-Lover at Last, pg. 106
Qhuinn shifted his position, pivoting around, tilting his head back, sluicing the water through his dark hair, that incredible body arching.
He’d kept his PA.
And holy sh*t, he was aroused—
-Lover at Last, pg. 79
Qhuinn went over to the door and leaned in, listening for Rhage’s voice, closing his eyes, waiting for the hall of statues to be clear.
Jesus, he could be a selfish prick sometimes; he really could—
"Qhuinn.”
His body turned on a dime, sure as if Blay’s voice was a ripcord that yanked him around. “Yeah?”
The male walked forward. When they were eye-to-eye,
Blay said, “I still want to f**k you.”
-Lover at Last, pg. XXX
Qhuinn froze.
On the other side of the blue mats, Blay was on the machine closest to the door, sittting as still as the weights he was not lifting.
The expression on his face was volcanic. But he wasn't mad.
No, he wasn't.
He had a hard-on big enough to see from across the room. Maybe across the state...
-Lover at Last, pg. 73
“So be it,” Wrath murmured. “Eight’s a good number. A lucky number.”
That low growl of agreement rippled through the air once again, the sound one of complete and utter solidarity.
This was the future, Wrath thought as he smiled and bared his fangs. And it was right.
-Lover at Last, pg. 165
