Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
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 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 grabbed this book while looking for a new vampire series and wow...it really grabbed me. I loved it from start to finish and ran out immediately to get all the other books!

If you like romance books at all, you have to read the entire "Black Dagger Brotherhood" Series by JR Ward. This series is the "BEST". It comes with strong characters and a never before written back drop. I just reccommend to start with the very first in the series and progress from there.

I'm not a romance reader, I'll admit that upfront, just not my gig, so I won't even bother reviewing that bit. A friend lent me some of the series, without saying they were romance novels, and I read a couple out of politeness.
J.R. Ward really falls flat on providing a remotely believable history for her world, the vampires are a different species than humans rather than undead, but what's a vampire novel with out undead? So we have undead vampire slayers instead, who dust when stabbed in the heart, like vampires in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," and are easily identified because they smell like baby powder, and loose all of their pigmentation. The vampires have ancient society with it's own customs and even their own language, but the names of the warriors and protectors of their kind read like a preteen goth girl picking names for her future children: Rhage, Tohrment, Phury, Zsadist, and Wrath.
And the technical writing is even worse, at times sounding like a Bulwer-Lytton contest entry, "His abs looked like he was trying to smuggle paint rollers under his skin," what? The conversations between characters are awkward and hard to read, especially between the vampires where every other sentence ends with "my brother." The characters are the horrible cliches and the only part of reading this I enjoyed, was making fun of it. I have to say, in complete honesty this is the worst book I've ever read.

The story line:
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...
Spoilers:
I got into this book early on, it was pretty intriguing. That changes half-way in. It was hard to get into the main characters, Wrath was kind of hallow and boring. He was described as a long hair biker type - if that's your thing you'll love it- but for me it was hard not to imagine a old White Snake video when Ward kept describing him. The extras are what count in this book, the additional characters are more interesting then the Wrath by far.
