There are so many good things Reyes has done in this series. The more Charley finds out about him the more things come to light! Name what your favorite deed has been so far.
Plz remember to place warning for those who have not read the series.

Cindy (cindymac52) I think his devotion to Kim, no matter the cost to him is memorable. Also his willingness to die to keep Charley safe: this makes him GOOD!

Ditto! I love how he set his bestfriend up with the money the wife got from "stalker" lady. I can't wait to see what happens in book 3!


message 4: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments I love that he is still so mysterious. We still do not know too much about him. For example, how is able to always know and show up when Charlie is in serious trouble? He is a true "dark knight". Ahhh, so dreamy.

I love how he takes care of everyone in his life-especially Charley, but he cares so much for his sister and best friend and takes care of them too. Mel, you're right a true dark knight indeed.

Hey Mel, missed you around here yesterday! I think that is the best part of Reyes! We are still pupils and are soaking it all up!


message 7: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) I hate that the system failed him!!! Kidnapped, tortured, abused...and all he wanted was the love of Charley. I mean he had it all figured out, grow up and live his mortal life with Charley. But would Charley love the boy nextdoor? Or this broken man with the soul of her destined mate?

Oh Cindy, you are so right!

Alicia (amalley71) | 19 comments I agree with Track completely!


message 10: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) Who wants to lick Reyes all over...you know, just to put him in a good mood?

Cindy (cindymac52) ٩(•̮̃-̃)


message 12: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments Oh, Cindy I am so sorry but only Charlie could improve Reyes' mood. His total control and devotion to Charlie is one of the most attractive qualities about him. He has never been swayed by another since her birth...true soul mates. But to dream or wish for the love of Reyes is a wonderful fantasy to keep us warm at night. LOL :)

I agree...it totally sucks. While reading the books, I have often wondered what life would have been like for them growing up together and I agree it probably would not have worked out in the end.

Mel, it's just one of the things I luv, everything is about Charley. He fell in love with her at first sight!

hmmm reyes is a tough, sexy cookie, that's for sure. it was love at first sight for him and that's what sealed the deal for me. though in the second book, he does come off as a bit of a jerk because he'd destroy his body without a second thought, even though he should know charley better and that she'd want some kind of life with him. but i'm still on team reyes :]


message 18: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments I kinda agree Lisa that it sucks but Reyes is all Alpha and he will do whatever he believes will protect Charlie with or without her consent. A true alpha will protect first and foremost.

He doesn't want to have to kill her if the other goons get a hold of her. She is the gateway to heaven and Reyes loves her, it's a sticky situation.

No, I think I just tortured myself more by reading it.I'm skipping chapter 2 if it comes up.

Cher, I feel sick to my stomach, say no more! He he
It most definitely will come up when we start talking about the book after the 31st. If everyone is able to get a copy by the end of the month, we can have a blast dissecting it!

I'm in!


message 27: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) I know he's mad at Charley...she did it out of concern for him and that's a good thing for a relationship. He's mad because she put herself in danger for HIM! That's the Alpha males job.

Agreed but in the same turn, Charley's not happy.This makes me fear where it will lead.

That's good then, that means the story continues and we can have more of Reyes, it has to end well!

Cindy (cindymac52) What happens when Light meets Dark? BOOM! Explosive...let's hope that Heaven see''s the good in this and wraps them both in a protective bubble. *sigh* Don't see it happening, but I can fantasize...

I'm with you there


message 32: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments Please don't let this be another Rachel and Trent...the Hollows is already killing me. Reyes is too awesome to ignore for too long and Reyes gave up everything to be with Charlie. How can they not be together? I am a HEA gal!

Then again, Garrett is always around...lookin' hot while flirting with Charlie.

Dana Alma (readaholics) | 1174 comments Mod
Hell yeah, HEA girls in the haus! I would be so mad! Nay, Jones couldn't be so cruel!


Traci (Mad Hatter Reads) (traci-madhatterreads) | 609 comments Mod
Charley and Reyes have to have HEA!!! I'm ok with it taking a while because that means more books, but it needs to happen in the end!

It would be the equivalent to sex without an orgasm!


message 36: by Cindy (new)

Cindy (cindymac52) I want a HEA. I NEED a HEA...Merit and Ethan we're a good example of frustration when they killed Ethan off. I said Ethan should be brought back. *spoiler* He was *smug me*. (Chicagoland vampires)


message 37: by Mel (new)

Mel | 829 comments I am with you, Cindy...I almost stopped reading the Chicagoland series...so glad I gave it one more book.
