Summary:

In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there's a deadly war raging between vampires and their slayers. And there exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Possessed by a deadly beast, Rhage is the most dangerous of the Black Dagger Brotherhood...Within the brotherhood, Rhage is the vampire with the strongest appetites. He's the best fighter, the quickest to act on his impulses, and the most voracious lover - for inside him burns a ferocious curse cast by the Scribe Virgin. Possessed by this dark side, Rhage fears the times when his inner dragon is unleashed, making him a danger to everyone around him. Mary Luce, a survivor of many hardships, is unwittingly thrown into the vampire world and reliant on Rhage's protection. With a life-threatening curse of her own, Mary is not looking for love. Her faith in miracles was lost years ago. But when Rhage's intense animal attraction turns into something more emotional, he knows that he must make Mary his alone. And while their enemies close in, Mary fights desperately to gain life eternal with the one she loves.

Review:

Second book in the series and we got to follow Rhage struglle with his beast and the new love. I liked this book in my first reading, but after starting this read along I got to say most of the stories were blured. Is nice reading for the second time because it made me remember a few moments that I loved and some tiny changes.

Mary was actually a nice girl and I loved the fact she was deaply concerned for Rhage but at the same time she stood up for herself and didn't let him boss around. She's super quiet but they made a nice couple and I loved seeing him suffer for her. She had a rough life and her cancer is back, so the future was not perfect, but Rhage decided to stick with her and help. He's super cute during this book.

Another nice thing is the fact we got to meet John Matthew again. I loved seeing him before the change. He's such a nice guy and had a difficult path until now, because Torh and Welsie decided to "addopt" him. Anyway can't wait to read his book again.
