Publisher's summary

With a dagger in her hand and vengeance on her mind, Darkhaven beauty Elise Chase prowls Boston's streets in search of retribution against the Rogue vampires who took from her everything she cherished. Using an extraordinary psychic gift, she tracks her prey, well aware that the power she possesses is destroying her. She must learn to harness this gift, and for that she can turn to only one man: the deadliest of the Breed warriors, Tegan.

No stranger to loss, Tegan knows Elise's pain. He knows fury, but when he slays his enemies, it is with ice in his veins. He is perfect in his self-control, until Elise seeks his aid in her personal war. An unholy alliance is forged - a bond that will link them by blood and vow - and plunge them into a tempest of danger, desire, and the darkest passions of the heart.

Spend some more time among the Midnight Breed.

Critic reviews

"An adrenaline-fueled, sizzlingly sexy, darkly intense addition to Lara Adrian's addictively readable paranormal Breed series." (Chicago Tribune)

Outstanding Book, Outstanding Narrator!

Lara Adrian is absolutely one of the greatest entertaining writers of this day. The Breed third book isn't as good as the first two but it still is entertaining. I have read ALL of Adrian's Breed series and can hardly wait for the remainder to be put into audio. Hillary Huber's narration is outstanding! Some of my favorite books have been put to audio but I can hardly stand to listen to them because of the narration. You don't have that problem with Huber's narration of the Breed series. I can and do listen to them over and over.

Hot like the BDB!

If you are a fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood then you will enjoy Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed series. So far each book in the series gets better and better.

Spectacular Story!

Where does Midnight Awakening  rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Midnight Awakening, Book 3 is by far my favorite in the series to date. (I've read the first five thus far.) So much of the relationship that develops between Tegan & Elise are surprisingly fun & spontaneous. I found myself smirking throughout so many scenes in the story.

Elise is a unique character in the story... polished, refined, yet, incredibly attracted to the brutish Tegan. All integrated into an unfolding, well-developed, paranormal drama.

What other book might you compare Midnight Awakening  to and why?

Kiss of Midnight, Book 1 with Lucan & Gabrielle is comparatively wonderful.

What does Hillary Huber bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The vampirical exchanges between the chief characters are sexy as all hell.

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

Lots of laughing and/or smirking.

Any additional comments?

The language and intimate scenes are extremely graphic... so this story isn't for the prudish at heart.

Great Series so far!

I absolutely love Tegan. But Elise really took my breath away. Talk about a chick who kicked butt. Who would have thought a sweet mother, could turn into a fierce stalking cat. A great couple, whose interaction kept me riveted. A wonderful listen. Lots of action, sex/love making, and a couple appreciating each others strengths.

Secrecy, passion and happily ever after

Warriors, evil villain, vampires and strong human women collide in a fast paced exciting story. Meet "The Order" and the women who love them.

WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE ABOUT THE "BREED BOYS"

Where does Midnight Awakening  rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Right up there at the top. I have really liked this series. I think L.A. has an immense imagination and creativity to have built the world not only where the Breeds live and wage war, but the world from which they came.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Midnight Awakening ?

The entire book/series is memorable and I find myself recommending it to others, which is something I typically do not do.

Which scene was your favorite?

Can't tell without spoiling.

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

I did not cry, did laugh a little, but mostly sat on the edge of my seat in anticipation of what was going to happen next.

Love can comes more than once in a life time....

What made the experience of listening to Midnight Awakening  the most enjoyable?

The way we can Love again after a big LOST...

What was one of the most memorable moments of Midnight Awakening ?

when he stops frighting his love for her. Then they come togther for each other.

What does Hillary Huber bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

makes it more enjoyable for me.

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

i love a book or audible that can make me cry one minute and laught in other minute.

Lucan's leadership called into question

no leader worth his salt would have sent his guys out on a mission to save the world while he stayed behind to look for his friend. nope. big gaffe there.

Not my favorite, but still good

This is book 3 of the Midnight Breed Series, and I have to say I am on my way to book 4. I knew I would like this series so when Audible had one of their paranormal sales and almost all of this series was dirt cheap, I bought them all....then I put off listening to them for MONTHS, bad bad me!

This whole series so far has been action packed, with great plots, nice twists, strong characters and overall the books are both intense and they are building a whole world in which the reader can get sucked into. So far book 3 was my least favorite...but it was still better than 90% of the books I have listened to that involve a vampire!

This is the story of Teegan...I could kind of tell there was something between him and Elise in book 2 and was glad that their relationship would be explored in this book. I have to say that for this one the plot out hit the heat and relationship issues...which isn't a bad thing, but I wanted more meaningful moments between the two of them. We did learn a lot more about this Breed World, and the players in it, and we even had some resolution with a big bad guy in this book, so all in all it was still good, just wish their was more chemistry and heat moments, but I guess I can't have it all.

My advice is if you are rich just go ahead and download all of these books...if you are on a tight budget and can't afford all these books then put them in your wish list and when Audible has a great sale buy them ALL! Once you start you won't want to stop, so don't torture yourself...you know...unless you can drop a couple hundred dollars with ease!

wow

i love this series, you just dont want to put it down and you feel for these characters.
