About this ebook

A warrior with inner demons falls for a woman who could save his soul in this seductive novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

Within the Black Dagger Brotherhood, Rhage is the warrior vampire with the strongest appetites. He’s the deadliest fighter, the most voracious lover, the quickest to act on his impulses. He’s also been cursed with two hundred years of hell. Possessed by a beast, he lives in fear of the times when his inner dragon comes out and he’s a danger to everyone around him.

Mary Luce has unwittingly found herself in the vampire world, and under Rhage’s protection. With her own life-threatening curse to bear, she’s not looking for love. Besides, she’s stopped believing in saving grace and miracles long ago. But when Rhage’s intense sexual attraction turns into emotional bonding, he knows he must have her for his mate. As their enemies close in, Mary finds herself praying for something she fears she’ll never have: life eternal with the one she loves.

I just finished this second book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and look forward to reading the third. Each of the characters in the series are unique in their skills in bed & in battles for love & life for their dying race. Rhage has a demon to battle but it's Mary in the end who slays his shame & brings them together by loving the savage beast within Rage. Their story plus the larger struggle against the lessers plus the preview of Zsadists story is more than enough to keep anyone's interest.

comes an even better review. Like I've said before, even though each Brother has his own book, the other Brothers are still a part of it, keeping their stories alive. One of the things I love most about the author is she isn't afraid to include a different spin on what beautiful and sexy can mean. The BDB is one of the best series I've ever read, and that's putting it lightly. Get to ordering, people. It won't disappoint, I promise you.
