Christian's Coven #5
For the Rest of Eternity
[Siren Everlasting Classic Erotic Alternative Paranormal Romance, M/M, vampires, HEA] Jacob was devastated when the doctor diagnosed him with a rare blood disorder. Deciding to make the best of what time he has left, Jacob casts all caution aside and pursues the one man he had been warned away from…Shelby. Shelby smells the sickness on Jacob, his mate. After finding out that Jacob doesn't have much longer to live, he begs the prince to convert the human, but Christian refuses. He tells Shelby that the choice is up to Jacob and Jacob alone. When Shelby is attacked by a pair of rogue vampires, Jacob learns the people in this world are not just human. He can live with that. But what he can't live with is the fact that he is too weak to defend the man he is quickly falling in love with. Time is running out and Shelby isn't sure he can convince his mate to be converted. When Jacob collapses right before Shelby's eyes, Shelby realizes just how close he is to losing the one man fate has given him to love for the rest of eternity. ** A Siren Erotic Romance

First off I really love this series and many of this authors other series. And was really looking forward to Shelby's story. He was such a fun character in the previous books with him running around with Yasuko.
That I was a little disappointed with this one. Yasuko was only mentioned once - as sitting at a table. Not once was there dialogue between them. :(
Yasuko was his best friend and it was a little disappointing that we didn't see them together.
We didn't see the Shelby we saw before. Yes he has new things to deal with, like Jacob's illness etc. That seems to happen alot in series, when we meet a character and see him in a few of the previous book then when he gets his story the character changes we don't see the personality we saw before.
And there is a LOT of stuff about the rouges and leading into the next book.
I still liked the book just wished it had included the real Shelby along with all the rest of it.

I knocked off one star because I would have wanted to see more antics from Shelby And Yasuko. This could have been funnier. I love Jacob and how he pursued Shelby no matter what the overprotective vamps threatened. It broke my heart when he would not convert at first because he felt it was cheating death. I did not want to ever see Shelby sad as he is so lovable.

I really enjoyed Shelby's character in previous books and was looking forward to him and Yasuko causing some ruckus. Yasuko was hardly even mentioned though the other books talked about them being good friends:( I also thought there would be a little...more. I'm not sure what but there just was something lacking in this one. I did enjoy the overall story. It was light and fun. I think without having known the other books in the series I would have enjoyed it more but had some expectations that were not met for the book.

Well, I delved into the Bracverse a 2nd time and now there are 121 books - yikes! I loved this Universe the first time I read it several years ago and now I love it more, I really do, but I've only been able to read these series (and I have expanded to all the books that are currently out in each):
Brac Pack
Christian's Coven
Zeus's Pack
Demon Warriors
The Exiled
These are the series that start the Universe. Reading them in order is a must. Each book has it's own love story but there is an underlying story that plays out throughout them all. As you get towards the end of these series, other series come into play and I noticed that, since I did not read them, I missed some of the characters being mentioned (good and bad) but I was still able to follow because the main ones stay the same.
One day I WILL buy these and read them all!!! (For the correct order, just look on the Internet for Lynn Hagen Reading Order):
Brac Village
Shadow Tribe
BPNG (Brac Pack Next Generation - Brac Pack kids)
The Remus Brothers
Wolves of Desire
Brac Pack
Christian's Coven
Zeus's Pack
Demon Warriors

Me gustó que Jacob tuviera una enfermedad, creo que me gusta sufrir un poco, jajaja. Me sorprende que Christian no pensara o supiera de la existencia de Chey, creo que el omega hubiese podido curar a Jacob pero lo importante es que tuvieron final feliz.
Por cierto, la atenciones de Eli hacia Jacob me robaron el corazón.

I was so excited to read about Shelby finding his mate. Jacob is human and he felt the pull to Shelby right away, however, Jacob is dying from a rare blood disease and has a big decision to make. His dog, Mango, is also an adorable German Shepard who was a great addition to the story and was able to sniff out rogue vampires. This was another compelling story in the, Christian's Coven, series and it was as engrossing as ever :)

I have been looking forward to read this one because Shelby is such a sweetie and I was not disappointed. I would give a word of warning though, for heaven sake don't read it in public as you will look like a mad person when you burst out crying!! Having said that it was worth the read face on the bus and I did have tissues. I think of all the stories so far this was the most emotionally taxing and it also set up the perfect scenario for the twins to come out of their sleep. I am not sure if I want to read the next book as I think it might just be a blood bath, so I will have to think about it but knowing me I will probably read it just because I will want to know what happens!!

I have to comment on the events surrounding the author at this time regarding her plagiarizing a later book in this series. Part of me feels I should cease reading her stories all together as that is an awful thing to do. The other part of me says I already have these books, why can't I enjoy them? The whole incident has left a sour taste though. As I am reading them to fullfill a challenge, I will continue but will not be supporting further endeavors from this author, no matter how sad that makes me. I like these books and series. They are an escape. Not literary masterpieces, but easy fun reads.
This installment was nice as the human, although weak from disease, was the bigger and more dominant of the pair. I liked the dichotomy.

2012 Review:
That didn’t go so well.
I dislike stupidity and Jacob in particular was being wilfully stupid. It annoyed me. Most of the danger would never have erupted if he’d just been less touchy, prideful and negligent of his mate’s needs (aka the fact that it would make Shelby pretty unhappy if Jacob died).
Shelby isn’t the smartest either, but at least he does not come across as selfish.
I am glad this is done. Blah.

Shelby
I have read about 5 books from this series this one is my favorite Shelby finds his mate but he is sick and on top of that the problem with the rogue vampires is getting worse so there is a lot going on in this book lynn hagen is a great writer and even with being able to foresee the ending I still love to read her books

Meh, I didn't love it nor did I dislike it. Standard Siren book with vampires and rogues and night clubs, blah, blah. This one was about Shelby and Jacob. Jacob is the human and he's very sick but also Shelby's mate. He doesn't want to get converted at first but later gives in (just in time, of course). Then they have to battle hunters and rogues and other douchey vampires. Entertaining.

I REALLY liked Jacob and Shelby (and Mango). Would have thought Vaughn would have been in this one more and I was kind of disappointed he wasn't.

Jacob's little vampire
For the rest of eternity a great book, it had the right amount of fun and drama. Reads should be warned that although you can read this as a stand alone book, you'll be a little lost without reading the previous books in the series.

Si hablamos de los libros de la Saga que me hicieron llorar entonces...¡Este es uno de ellos!
Lo amo, de principio a fin, es simplemente hermoso. Cosas tristes, tan tristes que lo recuerdo y me dan ganas de llorar.
