Dark Lover by J R Ward

Dark Lover (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 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 pure-bred 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 know my opinion on this series is not going to be popular but I barely found this story to be meh.

I have my own Black Dagger expert and I had to go to her to explain some things to me about the lessers that the Brotherhood fight which were not explained or not explained well.

I already downloaded an audiobook copy of Book #3 and I was told I will get lost without Book #2 so I will give them a try to see if they grow on me a bit. I know from listening to my friend talk about some of the other books that I am not so excited about some of the books that will be coming up. That's one of the reasons that I didn't jump on this series right away.

I will actually say I didn't find the characters all the interesting and the world building left some holes that weren't completely discussed.
