Paradise, blooded daughter of the king’s First Advisor, is ready to break free from the restrictive life of an aristocratic female. Her strategy? Join the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s training center program and learn to fight for herself, think for herself...be herself. It’s a good plan, until everything goes wrong. The schooling is unfathomably difficult, the other recruits feel more like enemies than allies, and it’s very clear that the Brother in charge, Butch O’Neal, a.k.a. the Dhestroyer, is having serious problems in his own life.
And that’s before she falls in love with a fellow classmate. Craeg, a common civilian, is nothing her father would ever want for her, but everything she could ask for in a male. As an act of violence threatens to tear apart the entire program, and the erotic pull between them grows irresistible, Paradise is tested in ways she never anticipated--and left wondering whether she’s strong enough to claim her own power...on the field, and off.

Trez “Latimer” doesn’t really exist. And not just because the identity was created so that a Shadow could function in the underbelly of the human world. Sold by his parents to the Queen of the S’Hsibe as a child, Trez escaped the Territory and has been a pimp and an enforcer in Caldwell, NY for years- all the while on the run from a destiny of sexual servitude. He’s never had anyone he could totally rely on... except for his brother, iAm.
iAm’s sole goal has always been to keep his brother from self-destructing- and he knows he’s failed. It’s not until the Chosen Serena enters Trez’s life that the male begins to turn things around... but by then it’s too late. The pledge to mate the Queen’s daughter comes due and there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and no negotiating.
Trapped between his heart and a fate he never volunteered for, Trez must decide whether to endanger himself and others- or forever leave behind the female he’s in love with. But then an unimaginable tragedy strikes and changes everything. Staring out over an emotional abyss, Trez must find a reason to go on or risk losing himself and his soul forever. And iAm, in the name of brotherly love, is faced with making the ultimate sacrifice...

Long live the King
After turning his back on the throne for centuries, Wrath, son of Wrath, finally assumed his father's mantle--with the help of his beloved mate. But the crown sets heavily on his head. As the war with the Lessening Society rages on, and the threat from the Band of Bastards truly hits home, he is forced to make choices that put everything--and everyone--at risk.
Beth Randall thought she knew what she was getting into when she mated the last pure blooded vampire on the planet: An easy ride was not it. But when she decides she wants a child, she's unprepared for Wrath's response--or the distance it creates between them.
The question is, will true love win out... or tortured legacy take over?

Qhuinn, son of no one, is used to being on his own. Disavowed from his bloodline, shunned by the aristocracy, he has finally found an identity as one of the most brutal fighters in the war against the Lessening Society. But his life is not complete.

And it’s about time: The male has found his perfect match in a Chosen female, and they are going to have a young- just as Qhuinn has always wanted for himself.

 LOVER UNLEASHED
by J.R. Ward
Published by Signet Eclipse
March 2011
Book Ten: Payne's Story
Few authors give readers such a “powerful rush”* as #1 New York Times bestselling author J.R. Ward does in her phenomenal books of the Black
Dagger Brotherhood. Now she returns to that fiercely intoxicating world
in a new novel of a woman’s journey from terrifying enslavement to an
erotic rapture that proves equally dangerous…
Payne, twin sister of Vishous, is cut from
the same dark, warrior cloth as her brother: A fighter by nature,
and a maverick when it comes to the traditional role of Chosen
females, there is no place for her on the Far Side… and no role for her
on the front lines of the war, either.
When she suffers a paralyzing injury, human surgeon Dr.
Manuel Manello is called in to treat her as only he can- and he soon
gets sucked into her dangerous, secret world. Although he never
before believed in things that go bump in the night- like vampires- he
finds himself more than willing to be seduced by the powerful female
who marks both his body and his soul.
As the two find so much more than an erotic connection,
the human and vampire worlds collide … just as a centuries old score
catches up with Payne and puts both her love and her life in deadly
jeopardy.

Book Nine: John Matthew's Story
Readers have flocked to the "raw,
gritty...genre-bending"* novels of J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood.
Now return to that seductive- and dangerous- night world as the fever
rises in the war between the vampires and slayers.
*Booklist
In the darkest corners of the night in
Caldwell, New York, a conflict like no other rages. Long divided as a
terrifying battleground for the vampires and their enemies, the city is
home to a band of brothers born to defend their race: the warrior
vampires of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.
John Matthew has come a long way since he was found
living among humans, his vampire nature unknown to himself and to those
around him. After he was taken in by the Brotherhood, no one could
guess what his true history was- or his true identity. Indeed, the
fallen Brother Darius has returned, but with a different face and a very
different destiny. As a vicious personal vendetta takes John into the
heart of the war, he will need to call up on both who he is now and who
he once was in order to face off against evil incarnate.
Xhex, a symphath assassin, has long steeled
herself against the attraction between her and John Matthew. Having
already lost one lover to madness, she will not allow the male of worth
to fall prey to the darkness of her twisted life. When fate intervenes,
however, the two discover that love, like destiny, is inevitable
between soul mates.

Book Eight: Rehvenge's Story
J.R. WARD’S BLACK DAGGER BROTHERHOOD novels have introduced
readers to a “different, creative, dark, violent, and flat-out amazing”*
world.
Now, as the vampire warriors defend their race against their
slayers, one male’s loyalty to the Brotherhood will be tested- and his
dangerous mixed blood revealed.
*All About Romance
Caldwell, NY, has long been the
battleground for the battleground for the vampires and their enemies,
the Lessening Society. It’s also where Rehvenge has staked out his turf
as a drug lord and notorious nightclub that caters to the rich and
heavily armed. His shadowy reputation is exactly why he’s approached to
kill Wrath, the Blind King, and leader of the Brotherhood.
Rehvenge has always kept his distance from the Brotherhood, even
though his sister is married to a member. Because he’s a sympath, his
identity is a deadly secret- the revelation of which will result in his
banishment to a colony for sociopaths. And as plots within and outside
the Brotherhood take their toll against Rehvenge, he turns to the only
source of light in a darkening world- Elhena, a vampire untouched by the
corruption that has its hold on him- and the only thing standing
between him and eternal destruction.
