NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this sexy paranormal romance novel set in the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward tells the story of two couples—both fighting to find love in the midst of the war with the Lessening Society.
A vampire aristocrat, Peyton is well aware of his duty to his bloodline: mate with an appropriate female of his class and carry on his family’s traditions. And he thought he’d found his perfect match—until she fell in love with someone else. Yet when his split-second decision in a battle with the enemy endangers the life of another trainee, Peyton has to face the idea that his future, and his heart, actually lie with another.
Novo, as a female in the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s training program, feels like she has to prove herself to everybody—and she has no interest in being distracted by falling in love. But when Peyton proves to be so much more than a rich playboy, she is forced to confront the tragedy that has broken her soul and closed her off from love.
As the two grapple with Novo’s past and Peyton’s present, another couple must contend with a connection that is unparalleled—and potentially scandalous. Saxton, who has had his heart broken, discovers in himself a deep-seated attraction to Ruhn, a new member of the household. But will the other male explore the connection? Or will he close his mind and his heart to what could be true love . . . and cost Saxton everything?
Praise for J. R. Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series

“To die for . . . I love this series!”—Suzanne Brockmann
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Ward's third Black Dagger Legacy novel is considerably toned down compared to earlier books, but readers will still be satisfied. While Peyton, a wastrel member of the aristocratic glymera, is training with the Black Dagger Brotherhood in their existential war against the Lessening Society, he attempts to prove his worth, but his bad judgment nearly kills Novo, another trainee. Peyton's attentions during Novo's recovery are sweet and sexy, but a combination of their selfish families, her insecurities, and a big secret may destroy their relationship before it can blossom. Of the two romances in this entry, theirs is the more emotionally intense, but the love story that develops between Brotherhood consigliere Saxton and new household member Ruhn may be more poignant, thanks to rough-edged Ruhn's uncertainty about his elevated position in the Brotherhood. Ward's duo of redemptive and complementary romances is engrossing and surprisingly tender.
