RHAGE: WARRIOR, CHARMER
Lover Eternal by JR Ward (Signet Eclipse, 2006)
STATS: Black Dagger brother with “the strongest appetites. He’s the best fighter, the quickest to act on his impulses, and the most voracious lover—for inside him burns a ferocious curse cast by the Scribe Virgin. Owned by this dark side, Rhage fears the times when his inner dragon is unleashed, making him a danger to everyone around him.” All I can say is – Wow.
THE
LEADING LADY: Mary is “survivor of many hardships.” When she meets Rhage, she’s just learned that the cancer she’s defeated once has returned. She thinks she has nothing to offer any man, but Rhage knows that’s not true the instant she speaks his name—the musical lilt to his voice calms and comforts the demon inside him, drawing him to her immediately.

I forgave my ex-husband for leaving me. Yes, he had an affair and packed his bags and left me with bills and 3 mouths to feed. But in the end it was the best thing for us. I had to forgive him to move on and be emotionally healthy. He wanted to come back, after six months, but that I couldn’t do, because the affair he really wanted, and so did she. Even with the struggles, I couldn’t live with him again, but I could forgive him after I let time heal me. I also had 3 kids, that needed me. I didn’t have time to wallow in my self-pity. I do believe time heals all wounds, if you let it. Forgiving doesn’t mean forgetting, and learning from the experience. Which I did.

I hold grudges and have difficulty forgiving. Estrangement from family is an example. Being able to forgive would mean my kids could see their grandparents and cousins, etc, but knowing that the family hasn’t changed or can’t apologize means that I can’t get past it. My own issues, I know, but it’s the way I am.

I think I used to be extremely forgiving. I forgave my ex longterm boyfriend for a whole lot more than I should have. I don’t think I’m as forgiving now. I kind of worry about that, though. I’m not sure it’s such a good thing even though it’s a protection or defense I’ve formed. I just hope that it’s more middle ground instead of the extreme opposite.
