What can I say...J.R. Ward did it again!!!! This is my favorite series of all time. I tried so hard to savor this book and make it last, but that didn't happen. I read it in two days, and it was amazing. We find out so much more about "V" and his past, which really brings the present into prospective. As always we learn more about the other Brothers, their mates, and some surprises are thrown in that really blows the mind. I am now anxiously awaiting the next in the series, to see what happens that is left unfinished here. If you know this series you know what to expect as far as Vishous and his sexual preferences, so if you are squeamish about that, then you may want to skip those parts. A GREAT book by A SUPER TALENTED author.

This is not the easiest book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series to read. It has some BDSM elements to it (V's sexuality) that might make some people uncomfortable to read, along with the fact that two of the main characters finally have a conversation over a sexual attraction that was only an assumption before. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and read this book straight through in a matter of hours. I wasn't turned off by the unconventional HEA but, was rather intrigued on how Ms. Ward would use and change it in upcoming books, and also how it might change the fate of some of the other characters. The secondary character development was exceptional and now I am on pins and needles awaiting the next book in the series.

This is the story of Vishous who I think is the most gifted member of the brotherhood. Vishous is badly injured and ends up in a human hospital being operated on by Dr. Jane Whitcomb. When the brothers discover where he is at, they act quickly to get him out of the hospital and take Jane with them.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and read it in one day. Many people did not like the unexpected ending of this book, but it didn't bother me. You get a lot of secondary stories with Phury and John Matthew. A big plus is there is no point-of-view scenes from the Lessening Society. My rating: 5 Stars.

Read this in two days. I never want the Black Dagger Brotherhood series to end. J. R. Ward has done a fabulous job developing and entwining the "Brothers" stories so that the books flow easily to the next one. Just can't say enough good things about this author and series. Loved it!!

Woo-hoo! Shitkickers (that I remember) only used once! I enjoyed the glimpses into what is happening with the other characters. I appreciated the incite into V's childhood and his *awesome* father (and mother).
An annoyance: Phury needs to get over Bella STAT. And when you *know* he has a serious crush Bella consistently seeks him out, leave him alone!
Later when he meets Cormia, her level of ignorance is astounding.

This was by far my second favorite of this series! I absolutely loved the story of Vishous and also of Jane. I was also happy to read more about John aka Darius. I am very excited to read Phury and Cormia's love story next!

The best yet! Ahh V, what a complex mess he is! Convinced he will remain fixated on his best friend Butch, he continues his miserable existence until a fiesty, smart surgeon comands him to "Stay with me!" The Brotherhood is the best series out there, full of action and emotional turmoil and unexpected joy. I love a book that makes me smile, and these brothers do make me smile as they stumble around in their new-found emotions. John is growing up (literally) and Phury is still blindly doing what he thinks is the right thing. Read this book!
