What is the main character like?



Camilla is a fairly ordinary girl, one who had aspirations of travelling the world with her friends but unfortunately her plans got cancelled. Her parents were murdered brutally while she was on a girls night out and it changed her life forever. Being of legal age, the house and its contents had been left to Camilla and her brother Ethan, and so had a mountain of debts. Her brother took their death badly and disappeared leaving Camilla with the heavy burden. She had to take the first job she could find to pay the piling red letters, and was left alone in the house where her parents died, haunted by the red splashes that covered their bedroom wall every time she walks past even though it had been cleaned long ago. Camilla feels so alone and in despair each time the postman calls, an all too familiar feeling most can relate to.
She has no idea of the secret life that had been lived right under her nose and despite her first encounter with the strange man being terrifying, it was also a little invigorating for her, a break from the depressing hole that she has fallen into. We can all identify with hardship, loneliness and loss but for Camilla it becomes so much more. She isn't strong or clever but she is determined. Even at her lowest points when giving in would be easier, she chooses to struggle on in the hope that a silver lining is waiting. Yes, she does make a number of bad choices, but don't we all at some point?
Every time Camilla thinks she's up to speed with the bombshells dropped on her, something new comes along to turn her world upside down. If ever there was a test of faith to be had, Camilla is first in line for the task.
She has her own strength that is not portrayed in battle but rather in morals. She values those around her even if they are undeserving and she will do all she can to keep them breathing, including sacrificing herself to punishment.
Do you consider her to be weak? Or an inspiration to us all?

Sacrifice



We all want something we can't have and Camilla is no exception. When she first meets Maddox she finds him rude and arrogant but as time goes on, he becomes the one she turns to, her rock. She trusts him completely and at first she doesn't realise her attraction to him. So much is going on around her and he had simply become her support post, but others, including him had seen it for what it was.
Her best friend Clio had always made her intentions clear toward Maddox and Camilla knew this but after an altercation with her, it finally drives home just how much he means to her, but she can't have him. Camilla wants to free Maddox and the others who are bound to the Sentinel leader and the only way she can do that is by taking him as her mate. Its a selfless act and one she feels is more important than her happiness. She urges Maddox toward Clio, but unlike Camilla he has no intention of sacrificing their love.

Who is the hottest guy in Forever Dark?

Here we have a list of the male characters and a bit of personality. Who do you think is the hottest?

This is Orion and my favourite character. He comes in halfway through the book and is a very complex man. Orion is the strongest and quite amusing. He is the king of the dark realm and is basically immortal, he's a fair man but if you cross him you better run for the hills and Camilla certainly knows how to push his buttons.









Riley is the leader of The Sentinel and also someone you don't want to cross. Camilla finds herself bound to him like his soldiers, and though most women would envy her position she would gladly trade places.








Ethan is Camilla's brother and also a Guardian. A different woman visits him every night and the noise from his room needs no imagination but is there another reason behind his abundance of female visitors?








Dempsey is one of the Undead and the first person Camilla meets before she is dragged into this fantasy world. He makes no attempt to hide his intentions for her and has the unique gift of bending her to his will.





Jax is a Panther and quite a lovable character. He's easy going and puts Camilla at ease when she joins The Sentinel and is keen to help her in freeing them from their oath to Riley.









Ellis is an Undead and quite the trickster as Camilla soon finds out. She seeks his help and he agrees but at a high price that ultimately leaves them both in a dire situation.










Maddox is a wolf and one of the strongest in The Sentinel. When Camilla first meets him he is hostile and just plain rude but the pair soon form a solid friendship that goes on to become extremely complicated and could just be the end for both of them.








Zane is a Panther but is destined for more. He is the medical man of The Sentinel as well as a formidable fighter but like Camilla, his past runs deeper than he knew and it's down to him to produce the one thing that can free them all.








So there are my leading guys, and if I had to make a choice it would be a cross between Maddox and Orion.
