"Rhage and Mary return in...[this] novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood... Nothing is as it used to be for the Black Dagger Brotherhood. After avoiding war with the Shadows, alliances have shifted and lines have been drawn. The slayers of the Lessening Society are stronger than ever, preying on human weakness to acquire more money, more weapons, more power. But as the Brotherhood readies for an all-out attack on them, one of their own fights a battle within himself..."--

Payne, hermana gemela de Vishous, está cortada por los mismos oscuros y seductores patrones que su hermano: es una luchadora por naturaleza y una rebelde cuando se trata de ejercer el papel tradicional de la mujer. Encarcelada por su madre, la Virgen Escribana, por fin se ha liberado, pero ha sido para enfrentarse a una devastadora lesión. El Doctor Manello es reclutado por la Hermandad para curarla, ya que es el único que puede hacerlo. A pesar de que el médico nunca antes había creído en los seres que se mueven en la noche como los vampiros, acabará dejándose seducir por una poderosa mujer que dejará marcado tanto su cuerpo como su alma. Finalmente los dos encuentran mucho más que una conexión erótica, haciendo colisionar los mundos humano y vampírico... Además, Payne deberá resolver un asunto de un par de siglos atrás que pondrá en grave peligro su amor y sus vidas.

The next must-read author for fans of Charlaine Harris' vampire fiction.

#1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward’s “instantly addictive”* novels of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continue as an ally of the Brotherhood must face his own dark desires.... Butch O’Neal is a fighter by nature. A hard-living ex–homicide cop, he’s the only human ever to be allowed in the inner circle of the Black Dagger Brotherhood. And he wants to go even deeper into the vampire world. He’s got nothing to lose. His heart belongs to a female vampire, an aristocratic beauty who’s way out of his league. If he can’t have Marissa, then at least he can fight side by side with the Brothers. Fate curses him with the very thing he wants. When Butch sacrifices himself to save a civilian vampire from the slayers, he falls prey to the darkest force in the war. Left for dead, he’s found by a miracle, and the Brotherhood calls on Marissa to bring him back. But even her love may not be enough to save him. *Lynn Viehl
