Publisher's summary

Listeners looking for a fresh twist on vampire tales need look no further than the erotically charged Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Mary Luce is dissatisfied with her life and her job. But when she is unwittingly thrust into the vampire dominion, everything changes. Falling under the protection of the Brotherhood's strongest member, Rhage, she soon finds herself drawn to his animalistic urges.

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.

The most perfect combination

This might be the first time that I’ve read a book with the most perfect combination of sultry sex scenes, action, and emotional turmoil. I laughed, cried because of the heartache and cried because of happiness. The idea is nothing new with a female lead softening a hardened hero of sorts. But this was done so beautifully. I liked that you learn a little more about the other brothers and their traditions. I can’t wait to learn more about Zadus, the former blood-slave turned assumed soul-less member of the brotherhood. It’s still a mystery the connection he has with his brother Fury and his new found Bella. This second book sealed the deal…I must read every single book in this series!!

Mmmmm, Rhage!

I really enjoyed this installment. The story lines of JR's books keep you coming back for more. She has a wonderful way of describing the characters their situations to the point that if you close your eyes, you feel like you're really there! I actually had to smoke a cigarette after a couple of the chapters...and I don't even smoke...(smile)! . A little action, a little suspense, a few tears, a little sex...OK, OK a lot of sex and characters that just make you want to say...mmmmmmm. Thanks JR!

5 Stars

Cursed by the Scribe Virgin, Rhage must live with a beast who comes out when he is enraged or overly aggressive. He meets Mary while she is visiting the Brotherhood's compound and finds her irresistible. Mary Luce is a human who has leukemia. She cannot figure out why Rhage is pursuing her since she is not beautiful. When Mary is thrust into the middle of the conflict between the Brotherhood and the Lessening Society, she must reluctantly depend on Rhage for protection.

Great addition to a fabulous series. J. R. Ward creates a world that sucks you in and never lets go. The characters are strong and the story never slows down. My rating: 5 Stars.

2022 Re-read: I'm re-reading my favorite series with a group on Goodreads. This time around I'm listening to the audio version narrated by Jim Frangione. I love Rhage and Mary's story. He knew from the moment he heard her voice that she was the woman he needed. But Rhage has to work around the curses he has on him, along with Mary's illness that could eventually kill her. I also enjoyed the set-up for the next book in the series. This book is still 5 Stars for me!

Enjoyable and beautiful romance. Rage’s story is better than expected. Sets a great stage for the next adventure.
