About this deal

She is drawn to him sexually (how could she not be), and doesn't know what to believe when one of her cop friends accuses him of being a murderer. It was like trying to slow down a train with a hand brake, but eventually a cooling stream of sanity replaced the whacked-out, blood-lust spins.

Caldwell, New York, wasn’t exactly a hotbed of opportunity for any journalist, but Di Beth, in turn, has just discovered the father she never knew was one of the Brotherhood and thus a vampire, and she’s beginning to turn into one herself.

Not only is this an adult book with explicit content, but it’s also the first time I’m featuring alcohol bottles in a blog picture. There's a big build-up to a show down, which lasts all of about 2 minutes in an anti-climactic let-down. I cannot express how much I love this series, this book was probably one of the reasons why I admire J. Seriously, am I supposed to believe that someone named after one of the seven deadly sins is capable of falling in love with someone so insipid?

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. I also loved that all the brothers were foul mouthed, hard asses that have the sexy bad boy vibes flowing. After one of his closest friends gets killed by the evil enemy, Wrath decides to honor his friend's request, and protect his daughter, Beth. Wrath, the last purebred vampire is king and leader of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, a group of vampire warriors fighting the evil Lessing Society, which is bent on eradicating vampires. The Brotherhood itself was fun to get to know if even all of their names are completely ridiculous: Wrath, Rhage, Zadist, Vishous, Phury, and Tohrment.Saying that, in this series we have an M/M romance, and it was the first M/M book I've ever read, and can I just say that reading an M/M book is hot. I will admit this though, I'm not a huge fan of reading third person books, I'd rather read from the first person, but after reading Dark Lover, I got used to it after the first couple of chapters, and by Lover Awakened (which is my favorite) it didn't bother me at all. When Wrath’s brother Darius asks him to help his only daughter (who is half human) with her transition, Wrath refuses. Add another cunt who was totally there first but who, for some reason, doesn't have the right to ask Nikkie Sixx to commit even though THEY'RE MARRIED.

With his failing eye sight, dark past, and his insecurities about being able to lead his people Wrath has refused to ascend the throne. Hace tiempo que no leía este tipo de historias paranormales con machos súper poderosos y posesivos, que exudan testosterona por todos sus poros, del tipo de los carpatianos de Christine Feehan o de mis adorados cazadores oscuros de Sherrilyn Kenyon.BUT when you consider that Rhage is just one of the 6 brothers and there are actually 5 more Chippendales in line, waiting to be introduced in painful flowery language as well, let's just say I wasn't laughing anymore. Wrath is both of the Brotherhood and the heir to the throne, but he does not rule, preferring instead to fight alongside his Brothers.

It's so hard to avoid the cliches of this genre, either the main female character is totally uptight, bitchy and ass kicking, or she's some limpid virgin whose loins throb at the sight of crazy tall dudes in leather. Super intimidating, asshole, extremely delicious in bed, must-remove-panties-as-soon-as-possible "gorgeous" hero?

Beth is that no nonsense bad ass MC this story promises and I really love the character mix in this book and I can’t wait to continue the series! The Lessers seem more like threats because they were once humans so human who don’t know any better can get tricked into becoming lessers. Wrath was no Jericho Barrons (aka immortal sex on legs) but I liked that he had a back story rather than being another typical two-dimensional vampire to add to the ever-growing pile. If you're looking for paranormal or urban fantasy of any kind of substance, stay away from this series.
