Dark Lover (The Masters of Time) (Mass Market Paperback)



I've just finished reading "Dark Lover" the last book in the Rose trilogy and the 5th book in her Masters of Time series by Brenda Joyce.

Product Description

Ian Maclean's arrogance hides a terrible secret—for decades he was held prisoner by demons. Not a day goes by that he isn't tormented by his darkest fears of powerlessness. Now he is about to sell to the highest bidder a page he's stolen from the Book of Power—if one woman doesn't stop him.

Slayer Samantha Rose's latest mission is to recover the stolen page—and get payback from the only man who's ever rejected her. What she hasn't counted on is the raging attraction between them—or her growing realization of what Maclean has survived. As the powers of the evil from his past gather, Sam will do anything to help him—even if it means following him into time and facing his worst nightmares with him….

My Review:

Storyline: I thought it was a pretty good storyline and it was well written! Glad to see a smart and strong heroine for a sexy and tortured hero!

Characters: Most of the characters were well written especially Ian, Sam, .

Romance: I really liked the romance between Ian & Sam and it was done well. I enjoy books where the tortured hero finds love with his heroine!  I also enjoy seeing characters from previous books (Aiden, Brie, Guy Tabby, Allie, Roye, etc.).

Killer(s): The killers were well written and I definately wouldn't want to run into them in real life.  Both are quite sick in the head and there are definately people in the world like them.

4/5

I love the killer part... LMAO!!!
I like the short review style! And question for you... Do you have to read the whole series to understand this one? I am wanting the books now... but do not feel like buying all 5 of them??

I bought this book but didn't realize it was 5th in the series. Now I've got to find the others so I can read them in order.

Hi Cecile & Patti!

I would recommend reading them in order because if you start on this one you won't know who the characters are and the backstory of some of the previous heroes & heroines.

Here's the order:

1. Dark Rival
2. Dark Seduction
3. Dark Embrace
4. Dark Victory
5. Dark Lover
6. Dark Resurrection (2011)
