Rehvenge is the owner of ZeroSum, a nightclub favored by the Black Dagger Brotherhood' warriors, he is also a drug lord, and sells girls in his VIP area, and has his hands in some assassinations, so in all he doesn't come off as a nice guy, until you get to know him.
Brother to Bella, the mate of Zsadist, he has taken care of the family the best he could, which has meant drugs and prostitutes, making sure mom and sister aren't aware of his business, where the brotherhood is.
So when he's approached to assassinate the King, things start to get dicey, it seems more people are aware of his past, the murders and his sympath side.
He turns to Xhex to get assassination over and done with. Xhex a half-sympath half-vampire like Rehvenge has a rough side, and when it turns out one of the club girls is in trouble she doesn't waste time to find the abusive boyfriend Grady... But Grady has run into more trouble as he ends up coming face to face with Lash, son of Omega, who tries to relief the money troubles of the Lessing Society by dabbling in drugs.
We also meet Ehlena, a no-nonsense nurse at the vampire clinic, who starts attracting Rehvenge's attention as he tries to find relief to his sympath side by using dopamine. Ehlena's life twirls around work and taking care of her mentally ill father - and has no room for Rehvenges advances. But one phone call seems to change it all. Change everything.
Lover Avenged is great piece of writing, draws you in and with all the different characters that take lead are complimenting the other stories that run through the book, Wrath's, Rehvenge's, Ehlena's, Xhex's, Lash's and John's. Mixed in a way that is torturous, but always gives more information and adds to the characters.
Rehvenged has grown to be one of my favourite characters. . . . yummy. ;)
J.R. Ward has a talent to finish the story with a happy ending but leave you begging for more when she sets up the next novel!

A superb world of eating, breathing vampires that take shit from no one, and show justice that fights with shitkickers, leather pants and daggers. Amazing read, I highly recommend it!
