Story
I make a living out of screwing over the jerks who capture and torment supernatural beasties. But when I free a bunch of particularly powerful monsters from their cages, I'm not counting on them following me home like lost puppies - stunningly hot lost puppies, but still. These manly monsters are determined to repay me for my help, and they won't get out of my apartment, until they're satisfied we're even. There's something to be said for allies so devoted they'll tear off heads and shred souls on your behalf. I'm all for joining forces.

Story
As a wolf shifter growing up in a strong pack, I should be living my best life. But after my father tried to kill our leader, I’m labelled an outcast, traitor, less than dirt. When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the leader’s son, drags me back before my first shift...a shift that will reveal my true mate. I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.

Redemption isn't a word Jim Heron knows much about - his specialty is revenge, and to him, sin is all relative. But everything changes when he becomes a fallen angel and is charged with saving the souls of seven people from the seven deadly sins. Vin diPietro long ago sold his soul to his business, and he's good with that - until fate intervenes in the form of a tough-talking Harley-riding, self-professed savior.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e., murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice. Complicating matters are the intensely hot dreams she's been having about an Entity who has been following her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he might be something else entirely.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time
The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

I also didn't plan to drunk-email my boss and quit my soul-sucking job, leaving me in a financial mess. But I'm churning those lemons into lemonade! I'm chasing my dream job at San Francisco's hottest restaurant. Guess who shows up as my competition? None other than my tattooed bad decision.

It should've been a dream. A new life on the coast, running a beautiful country hotel with my husband. It should have been everything I'd ever wanted. Worth every scrap of investment. A hotel business we'd sunken every single penny we owned into, only to find out there was a big chain rival opening just a stone's throw away. Slowly, day by day, the dream became a nightmare. Bills. So many bills. Sleepless nights, tossing and turning. No way out in sight. Until there was him. The man at the bar. The man with a proposition we should never have considered in a thousand years.

I couldn't help but sneak hidden glances at the condescending jerk on the other side of the room. Of course, he caught me on more than one occasion, and winked.

Awsome title even for the Men
I know this is a romance novel, but I will tell you her style is alot closer to Urban Fantasy than Romance. She is an awsome writer and this is my favorite series even though I am a guy. Have read all the books and this kicks the series off in a great way. Very different world of Vampires, much different than the Dracula or Anne Rice visions of Vampires. Check this book out, it is dark and at the same time the character development is AWSOME. check it out.

Fantastic Author & Fantastic Series
Sometimes a person reads an author and is so captivated by that author a need to devour everything they have ever written arises. This is one of those rare and precious authors. The Black Dagger series is worth a read and a re-read. She crosses boundaries of age, sex and violence with delicate precision. To say this series of books are frantic page turners is not even adequate to express how my friends (and me) were not able to put these books down to do normal life stuff. Enjoy and share with others this fabulous set of books from this extremely talented author.

Goofy, but still fun.
Story was interesting enough for me to listen to the whole thing but mostly because I'm usually committed regardless of how silly a book is. I only quit if the narrator is so bad it makes me mad. The sexy parts were okay, but I can't stand the amount of erotica that has a woman climaxing with a pump or two - I don't care how hot the guy is or how turned on we are - that's just not a thing. But there was a lot of incongruous stuff I also found just goofy. By the descriptions these guys are biker-looking, but listen to rap? And their names are completely ridiculous.

Wonderful Paranormal Romance
Well written and very entertaining. The band of brothers are so beautifully damaged. Being introduced into their world through the eyes of a human, Beth, made the experience even better.

For a honest review in my own words . wow i loved getting to know these fine warriors as the fight the lessers . king Wrath is a pure blood vampire and head of the black dagger brotherhood. Also known as the blind king . when one of his warriors is killed he finds that the daughter elizabeth is more to him . can't wait to see this as a movie on passionflix

Yep, I'm hooked!
If you could sum up Dark Lover in three words, what would they be?
COMPLETELY-TOTALLY YUMMY!
What was one of the most memorable moments of Dark Lover?
The engaging characters and story
What does Jim Frangione bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The depth! This isn't just another fanciful teenager vampire story. ;-)

Love the Series, Tolerate the Narrator
This may be the third time I've read Dark Lover, but it's the first time I've listened to the audio version. While I love the Black Dagger Brotherhood and will continue on with my audio re-read (for now), I am not impressed with the narration. Some narrators perform a book, while others simply read it. Unfortunately, the narrator, Jim Frangione, does little more than read the book when I was really hoping that he would add more depth and emotion into the world. I was expecting a great Southie accent for Butch, but didn't get it.
Maybe once Jim Frangione gets more involved in the Black Dagger Brotherhood, his skills narrating the world will grow. If not, I may not finish this series via audio. I give Dark Lover 5 stars and give Jim Frangione's lackluster narration 3 stars. Guess that gives us a decent balance at 4 stars this go round.
Original review:
This is a book that had been sitting in my TBR pile for a long time. Now I'm kicking myself in the ass for not reading it sooner.
First I want to say that I love that there was a glossary of terms at the beginning of the book so that I could read through them before starting it. Most books don't include a glossary (even when they need one) and those that do always put them in the back. In the case of this series, you really need to understand the terms to follow the story. Props to J.R. Ward for being smart and putting the glossary first.
The world that J.R. Ward has created is different and very interesting. I enjoyed the fact that vampires are born in this world and that they can not be "turned" like most vampire novels. That makes for a very interesting world and opens up the possibility of extinction since it is hard for the vampires to breed. Vampires in this series must feed off of members of the opposite sex within the vampire race in order to be healthy and strong. Though they can feed off humans, the blood doesn't sustain them.
The Brotherhood is a group of warriors that protect the civilian vampires from a society of soulless humans referred to as Lessers. The Lessers are pure evil and will do anything to kill vampires, even murdering humans to lure them in. After many years of taking joy in killing civilians, the Lessers have decided to aim higher and take out the Brotherhood.
After the Lessers kill one of the Brotherhood, Wrath, the vampire King (who just happens to be legally blind which I thought was beyond cool), feels the need to step forward and take his dead friend's daughter under his wing to help her through her transition to vampire. Little did he know that she would change his world.
I really enjoyed Dark Lover and the character development. The villains in the story are flat out creepy and Mr. X is a whole new level of bat shit crazy. This book opened up a lot of possibilities for the other Brothers and I can't wait to get to their stories.
