Dark Lover (BDB#1) by J.R. Ward

 

Team Quay!!!!The next installment in the BDB world will be out March 28^th! So we here at KT Book reviews thought we would begin a countdown of sorts. A refresher if you will of all the brothers. We kick it off with the original Dark Lover Wrath.

Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1)
by J.R. Ward

Welcome to Caldwell, New York. The would be king of the vamps lives here. It’s a twist in the usual storyline as the brotherhood is the protectors of their race. The Lessers are the bad guys. The Glimmera are the social elite snobs and humans are fodder pretty much unaware. This race of vampires feed on each other. Well the ladies that is. No humans are consumed in this version.

Wrath is asked by his fellow brother Darius to protect and help his daughter Beth. First he refuses, but when Darius is killed Wrath steps in. Little did he know what would befall him.  Beth is transitioning and coming into her own vampire heritage.  She knows nothing of this world or her father. What she thinks she knows will all be torn away with the truth of her new world coming into focus.

This book lays down the floor plan for the entire series. We meet the brothers and get a good dose of personality from each.  

Now the good stuff, a list of my favorite moments. Hopefully not to spoilery.

Funny sexy brothers with funny sexy banter

Oh yeah!!  Bring on more of the Brotherhood!!  :))))

Yep...  This book is the beginning of a fantastic series!  Just can't say enough about the world that J.R. Ward has created here.  You gotta' love a series that makes you laugh, cry, and swoon with passion!   

Another of my favorite moments was when Wrath came to Beth's apartment for the first time...  and his reaction to her reaction. 
Butch and Marissa...  giggle...  love that match so much! 

This is a must read series if you love strong Alpha males and strong heroines... 

Great description T...  :)
