About this listen

A scorching forbidden love threatens to tear a rift through the Black Dagger Brotherhood in J. R. Ward's newest novel in the New York Times best-selling series.

Xcor, leader of the Band of Bastards, convicted of treason against the Blind King, is facing a brutal interrogation and torturous death at the hands of the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Yet after a life marked by cruelty and evil deeds, he accepts his soldier's fate, his sole regret the loss of a sacred female who was never his: the Chosen Layla.

Layla alone knows the truth that will save Xcor's life. But revealing his sacrifice and his hidden heritage will expose them both and destroy everything Layla holds dear - even her role of mother to her precious young. Torn between love and loyalty, she must summon the courage to stand up against the only family she has for the only man she will ever love. Yet even if Xcor is somehow granted a reprieve, he and Layla would have to confront a graver challenge: bridging the chasm that divides their worlds without paving the way for a future of even greater war, desolation, and death.

As a dangerous old enemy returns to Caldwell and the identity of a new deity is revealed, nothing is certain or safe in the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, not even true love or destinies that have long seemed set in stone.

I marked my calendar for the release date of this book. Just finished listening and IT DID NOT DISSAPPOINT. Ms. Ward completed the mystery behind several characters, as well as added new mysteries. I've read every book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series and can still hardly wait for the next one! Additionally, kudos to JIm Frangione for a superb reading. I cannot imagine another voice reading the BDB stories.

WORTH THE WAIT

This multi-layered story is so well written and described and has the snappy clipped dialogue as well as the old world dialogue that's unique to this series. There are so many characters, sub plots, POV's and some unpredictable romances from these crazy Alpha vampires, and from Layla and Xcor, that it was a finger-licking literary feast. And Jim Frangione.. well he IS the voice of the BDB.

a good book
