Publisher's summary

A warrior trained in bullets and blades, Renata cannot be bested by any man---vampire or mortal. But her most powerful weapon is her extraordinary psychic ability---a gift both rare and deadly. Now a stranger threatens her hard-won independence---a golden-haired vampire who lures her into a realm of darkness…and pleasure beyond imagining. A combat-loving adrenaline junkie, Nikolai dispenses his own justice to enemies of the Breed---and his latest quarry is a ruthless assassin. One woman stands in his way: the seductive, cool-as-ice bodyguard, Renata. But Renata's powers are put to the test when a loved one, a child, is threatened and she's forced to turn to Niko for help. As the two join forces, as desire fans the flames of a deeper hunger, Renata's life is under siege by a man who offers the exquisite pleasure of a blood bond---and a passion that could save or doom them both forever.

Spend some more time among the Midnight Breed.

Critic reviews

"This is one of the best vampire series on the market!" ( Romantic Times Book Review)

Awesome series

Years ago I happened to pick this up at an airport book store and I instantly fell in love and went all the way back to the beginning now I’m listening to them all and I’m in love all again great series take a chance you won’t be disappointed

LOVED IT!

CAN NOT FIND A BETTER SERIES OF VAMPIRE BOOKS! TRULY THE BEST IVE EVER READ

great book

I enjoy this story for the second time i love the warrior and the mates

And we are back to the good stuff!

This is book 5 of the series and whew....I really should take a breather these books have melted my headphones and got my adrenaline pumping big time!

In this book we have the story of Nico...aka Nico-lie! He is in search of a Gen-One he met when he was younger...he needs to speak in person to him...and boy does he find him...and his little army too!

Nico really steps in it when he realizes that not all Gen-One's are as focused on preserving the human race as Lucan is and Nico is in for a rude awakening when he sees what this Gen-One has been up to.

This story is both thrilling and fun and the chemistry is not immediate, so the ride to get there was fun! All in all great book...right up there with the first one in my opinion...I am on to book 6!

One of my favorite series!

The Midnight Breed series has now become one of my top favorite vampire series. I feel I don't need to completely review this one book because it is just one part of the whole, but it was terrific.

I'll be using my credits for the remainder books very soon.

Midnight Breed needs masculine narration

I am coming to this series late, and reading it in order, so my comments won't make much of a difference. Just thought I would throw in my 2-cents.
Once I adjusted to the alien back story, the Read was satisfying. I find that I prefer it in text, rather than audio because I have trouble with narrator. Often times Huber sounds bored. Her accents are marginal. That being said, she does better with the Canadian french and the Russian in "Veil" than she did with the Spanish accent in the last book. So far, "Midnight Veil" is the best story.
My favorite continuing stories in this genre are JR Ward's "Black Dagger Series" and Cole's "Immortals After Dark" series. Both are excellently written, original, smart, and deliciously narrated by Jim Frangione and Robert Petkoff respectively. Petkoff does a Scottish Lykae like no other. It actually makes me swoon.
The Midnight Breed series would benefit greatly with a male narrator.

Great story, loved the narrator and the writer

The entire series is great, Im hooked. If you try it, you won't be disappointed.

OMG!!! I LOVED THIS BOOK.

I didn't think it could get better then the previous books but this one has become my favorite! Can't wait for Shades of Midnight.

Trust

Nikolai was a warrior wary if everyone always aching for a battle.Renata was shrewd mate with a special friend a small child both being held captive by a evil gen-one.Can Nikolai save them,will Renata learn to trust.Loved the narration!!

Anticipation

I like that it follows each book and it is continually getting better anytime. I will continue to read.
Great series
