Publisher's summary

Number-one New York Times best-selling author J. R. Ward’s novels of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continue, as a vampire warrior crosses the line between life and death…and ventures into an erotic world of dark dreams and darker desires.

Ever since the death of his shellan, Tohrment has been unrecognizable from the vampire leader he once was. Physically emaciated and heartbroken beyond despair, he has been brought back to the Brotherhood by a self-serving fallen angel. Now, fighting once again with ruthless vengeance, he is unprepared to face a new kind of tragedy.

When Tohr begins to see his beloved in his dreams - trapped in a cold, isolated netherworld far from the peace and tranquility of the Fade - he turns to the angel in hopes of saving the one he has lost. But because Lassiter tells him he must learn to love another to free his former mate, Tohr knows they are all doomed....

Except then a female with a shadowed history begins to get through to him. Against the backdrop of the raging war with the lessers, and with a new clan of vampires vying for the Blind King’s throne, Tohr struggles between the buried past and a very hot, passion-filled future.…But can his heart let go and set all of them free?

Critic reviews

“J.R. Ward's unique band of brothers is to die for. I love this series!” (New York Times best-selling author Suzanne Brockmann)

Great book

This is not much of a review, but I really enjoyed reading this book. It never has a lull. I laughed and cried.

Plot twists galore...

Some very interesting twists to the multiple stories of the characters in this series. What an ending!

Series Takes My Breath Away!

I have been an audible member for 2 yrs now and have purchased / listened to 200 books which include 20 different series! The BLACK DAGGER BROTHERHOOD is by far my BEST LOVED! This series in my opinion is incredibly written to the point that I feel I know the characters so well that they come to life right off the pages. The author has solicited more tears, laughter and anticipation from me than any other. This is an adult series that is very sexually explicit nevertheless it goes with the theme of the story from beginning to end. I restart the series from book 1 each time J.R.Ward releases a new book just to relive the experience over again. If you love strong ALPHA men then the series will definitely appeal to your senses.

Fan girl totally!

At first I thought the narrator was a lil corny with the urban lungi and all. Now I love him as much as I love our WARDen! Love love love these books!

If you have lost someone read this

As someone who has lost a husband I loved this book. I understand the pain of Thor. It resounded with me.

Worth waiting for . . .

What made the experience of listening to Lover Reborn the most enjoyable?

I really love all JR Ward's books, but also enjoy this narrator as well.

What other book might you compare Lover Reborn to and why?

There are so many in this genre, other authors in the genre include Christine Feehan, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lora Leigh, etc. Hoping to see Laurann Dohner's work on audio soon as well.

Have you listened to any of Jim Frangione???s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This was just as good as his previous. He's a perfect fit for her work.

I love JR Ward

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

i love the Black Dagger Brotherhood Books, all of them

This book was hella good *@!(!! A...

Pardon my language; I guess I've been hanging with the brothers for too long. There was so much going on in this latest installment; with new characters, and the ongoing stories of the old characters in the Series; that sometimes I found myself reading into the middle of the night. I had lost track of time. Absorbed! ... wondering what the hell was going to happen next. I loved the way J.R. opens the souls of the characters; giving them substance...the author totally got me involved with her characters and their heartstopping dilemmas. I personally think that the absence of love is the root of all evil and maliase in the world...So, the power of love to transform a life and bring a new reality to one who is suffering, which seemed to be the theme of this book, totally sucked me in. Plus there was just enough humor to have me laughing out loud, as well. Loved it, Loved it, Loved it. I read the series at random; as the characters became of interest to me. I do recommend that you read the other 9 books first before reading No. 10; but you don't need to; reading it,however, might send you back to read the other books in the series.

Lover Reborn: black Dagger Brotherhood book 10

was great just like all the rest Loved it, kind of saucy in some parts

Love lingering beyond the grave

As one who has been widowed, I appreciate a story that deals with how hard it is to release someone you love even after they have died. Your friends do not understand but studies show that 18 months or longer is a norm.
Not rushing to replace someone is important. One must release as Thor does before letting a new great love in such as Autumn.
Many heavy psychological topics handled in an erotic supernatural way. The forced affected speech of the
Chosen seems so out of date and wrong in this century even in an ancient society. The mansion has TV and modern medicine
Overall, fun read with deep undertones.
