A review
Almost from the moment he transformed her from human to Kyn, they have loved one another. However, Scottish vampire Laird Byrne and his loyal seneschal Jayr have hidden their love for one another from each other with each having what they believe is a good reason to conceal their feelings. However, recently Byrne has struggled with temptation, which has led to a loss of self control and jealous rage. Fearing he will harm his beloved, he hosts a tournament in which the winner will replace him as Laird of Orlando. Meanwhile Jayr has decided enough with eternal unrequited love she plans to seduce her master and let that lead to whatever fate she wrought. Vampires from around the realm arrive for the contest, but one of them is trying to steal the prize by assassinating the host and if necessary his beloved head of household. --- This is an excellent medieval paranormal romance due to the relationship between the lead couple as they share blood, but anything more is taboo. Furthermore although they love one another, he feels guilt for converting her and she is wary of what will happen if she follows her heart. Treachery at the tournament compounds the feelings as life in Lynn Viehl's Darkyn realm turns darker!! I'd also recommend reading Tino Georgiou's bestseller--The Fates--if you missed it!

evermore a novel of the darkyn by lynn viehl
I have read the previous 4 books in this series and enjoyed them and found them hard to put down, this one was very different it was very slow to start, i was half way through the book before i really got involved in the plot, but the last part of the book was good, i felt the relationship between the main charactors didn't really develop to nearly the end of the book which is probably why i didn't enjoy this book as much as the others!

A story that does not disappoint
As soon as I had read the 'teaser' for Evermore in the last Darkyn story, I placed my advance order. Sometimes you end up with a book that is not as good as promised. Happily this was not the case with Evermore.

The parts I like particularly are Jayr's reaction to biology, Philippe's continuing attempts at learning English and the bittersweet ending with a twist to the story of Robin Hood. I do hope that the character Robin of Locksley develops further, perhaps with his own book.

I am now going to advance order the next in the series.
