Book Review - Dark Lover by J.R. Ward

Review: #173 · Entry written by Crystal on November 30, 2007 · (504 Views)

Book CoverDark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood Series, #1) by J.R. Ward

In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there’s a deadly turf war going on between vampires and their slayers. There also exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Among them, none relishes killing their enemies more than Wrath, the leader of the Black Dagger Brotherhood…

The only purebred vampire left on the planet, Wrath has a score to settle with the slayers who murdered his parents centuries ago. But when one of his most trusted fighters is killed- orphaning a half-breed daughter unaware of her heritage or her fate - Wrath must usher the beautiful female into the world of the undead…

Racked by a restlessness in her body that wasn’t there before, Beth Randall is helpless against the dangerously sexy man who comes to her at night with shadows in his eyes. His tales of brotherhood and blood frighten her. But his touch ignites a dawning hunger that threatens to consume them both…

I have heard many good things about J.R. Ward and this series of books. I’m kinda going through a vampire phase as of late. So it was time I started the series. It was dead at work last night. I had about 6 hours of down time so I managed to get the whole book done in one sitting. I really enjoyed it. I couldn’t put it down.

Dark Lover was very well written. The characters were awesome. The book was also well researched. I liked Beth and Wrath’s chemistry, but honestly they were not my favorite characters. Butch was my favorite. I can’t believe I have to read 2 more books before I get to his story. I was ready to start the next book in the series as soon as I got home, but Lover Eternal is the only book I don’t have. So at 7:30 this morning I was online purchasing the book. I can’t wait to read it. I totally recommend Dark Lover.

Rating: Star Rating

    Glad you’re hooked. I adore this series. And yes, so far, Butch’s novel was my fave so far. But I like them all. I read V’s not to long ago… was not impressed. Yes, it was a good book, but I didn’t like the ending. You’ll see what I mean when you get to it.
