Dark Lover: A Novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #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 exists a secret band of brothers like no other-six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Yet none of them relishes killing their enemies-the lessers-more than Wrath, the leader of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

The only purebred vampire left on earth, 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, leaving his half-breed daughter unaware of his existence or her fate, Wrath must usher her into the world of the undead-a world of sensuality beyond her wildest dreams.

I love these books but it's a gruding and embarrassing love really. Something about it is addicting, I think it may be the fact that there is a lot of storyline, there is a background for the world and the characters, and some of the characters are awesome. But there are lot of things that make me cringe, like the over-exaggeration when it comes to the sheer size of these men. Okay they are like 7ft tall and bulky as hell, got it, but now they also have fangs that would fit in the mouth of a tiger?! I don't think so...he wouldn't look good or fearsome, he would look borderline stupid. Some of the characters seem a little forced here and there.

This book was amazing, it kept me intrigued until the very end.
