Here is what I learned off the transcript – you can read it at her message boards here. I just wrote the list as it came out of the chat..sorry if it is a bit unorganized:)
There are spoilers so beware! (I don’t think anything too big though *g*)
– Wrath will remain blind
– John Matthew and Darius are the same person (think we already knew that *g*)
– Manny and Butch are related – Butch’s dad was a surgeon, Manny is a surgeon (not father/son though)
– series is open ended as long as we keep reading, she will keep writing
– she is going to revisit Rhage/Mary and Zsadist/Bella in upcoming books
– she still refuses to say what the is lie between herself and V.
– Ehlena and Jane will get together to be a medical team
– JM/Darius issues will come out in Lover Mine
– In Covet we will see Phury, Trez, Jose De La Cruz, Fritz, Butch (some mentions only BDB readers will “get”)
– Lover Mine has a nasty surprise for Lash
– Murhder will show up in Lover Mine, he is “mad sexy” and he affects the outcome of the ending of Lover Mine!
– Blay and Saxton definitely hook up
– Rehv still will need to use dopamine, but the colony helps with his need for manipulation. He still has his mohawk.
– Lassiter will have his own book!!
– The Scribe Virgin is depressed but something will happen that will snap her out of it
– We will see Payne in Lover Mine
– Lassiter saw Wellsie when he looks up at mural on ceiling in Lover Avenged
– There will be a boxed set of BDB books coming out
– Phury will start to stay at the mansion but not officially live there

– In August there will be an online bookclub chat with JR Ward and Jessica Andersen with her new Nightkeeper’s book.
– In September an online bookclub chat with Christina Dodd and her new series
– In October chat with JR Ward about Covet.
I am excited about the Murhder news and that Lassiter gets his own book. Have I mentioned I am a huge JM fangirl and want Lover Mine now!!! :)
Is Lover Mine next up in the series?
Amanda – Yes, Lover Mine is next (John Matthew and Xhex book) and will be out next spring.
You are the queen of summarizing – I am still halfway through the transcript- kids and cooking and cleaning….
mmmmmm … no joy for me today..
Thanks for this..
E.H>
I really thnk Lash is not the Omega’s son! yum Lassiter!
Thanks for this :D
Mandi, I will definitely bookmark this post, because when I read the series… this will help me understand things a little better! Thanks for doing this!!! I might have to start on this one as soon as my contest wraps over at my place!
EH – I typed this post up super quick (hence the no organization) because my boys were running around like wild banshees:)
Katiebabs – really? Didn’t he produce Lash and place him back 25 years ago himself?
Blodeuedd – :)
Cecile – you better start ;) Lovin your contest so far:)
I’m curious how Manny is going to be worked into the story. And I’m really looking forward to Lassiter’s book, he is so intriguing.
Fantasy Dreamer – I’ll tell ya a secret – Manny will have a HEA…named….don’t look if you don’t want to know……
Payne:)
Seriously? I would’ve never guessed, was that in the transcript, too? Kewl!
She confirmed it at one of her book signings. I dig Payne..not sure how I feel about Manny yet.
I am SO excited! I can’t even think and it’s like 2am so I’ll post my thoughts tomorrow!
Wow, thanks for this! how very handy. Now, does this mean Wellsie is coming back as a figure in a mural? I think I might like that!
I don’t know…I guess Lassiter can communicate on some level with her? We need more info on Lassiter!!
Lassiter doesn't seem much like an angel sent from Wellsie lol.
Is Manny a human though? How does he tie in? What does "she still refuses to say what the is lie between herself and V." mean? JM/Darius issues? Like what?? DO TELL!
In Covet, do we get more insight on iAm too? Aside from Trez? In Lover Avenged when Rehvenge scrammed into the bathroom, didn't the book say that his vampire need trumps his symphath side? Why does he still need dopamine if he's already mated to Ehlena? Or am I getting this wrong?
Hmm I seem to recall something about the Scribe Virgin's depression in some previous book (can't remember what title) when she mentions her father.
I think Manny is human but maybe has vamp blood in him from a long time ago..kind of like Butch?? I don't know..
In the Insider's Guide she wrote last year, during one of the "interviews" V said something to her about JR Ward lied to him and he can't forgive her. JR Ward won't say what that meant. (I do realize V is fictious..lol)
JM is Darius reincarnated…when Darius was blown up in Dark Lover he went to the SV in the fade and that was her bargain with him..she would bring him back so to speak, but he would have no memories. So the day Darius died, the SV placed JM as a newborn 25 years earlier….so JM or one of the brothers is going to realize this and I think JR Ward said JM will get Darius' memories.
I don't know about Rehv..I guess it just means he will always have a sympath side..it won't go totally away..although the colony helps with his instincts.
Yea I figured that out with JM/Darius .. though from Lover Avenged, Tohr notices that John looks a LOT like Darius, so maybe he's he one who figures it out?
I kind of think it's really weird how Ward communicates with the brothers … lol because they're fictitious.
