Awsome title even for the Men

I know this is a romance novel, but I will tell you her style is alot closer to Urban Fantasy than Romance. She is an awsome writer and this is my favorite series even though I am a guy. Have read all the books and this kicks the series off in a great way. Very different world of Vampires, much different than the Dracula or Anne Rice visions of Vampires. Check this book out, it is dark and at the same time the character development is AWSOME. check it out.

Fantastic Author & Fantastic Series

Sometimes a person reads an author and is so captivated by that author a need to devour everything they have ever written arises. This is one of those rare and precious authors. The Black Dagger series is worth a read and a re-read. She crosses boundaries of age, sex and violence with delicate precision. To say this series of books are frantic page turners is not even adequate to express how my friends (and me) were not able to put these books down to do normal life stuff. Enjoy and share with others this fabulous set of books from this extremely talented author.

Goofy, but still fun.

Story was interesting enough for me to listen to the whole thing but mostly because I'm usually committed regardless of how silly a book is. I only quit if the narrator is so bad it makes me mad. The sexy parts were okay, but I can't stand the amount of erotica that has a woman climaxing with a pump or two - I don't care how hot the guy is or how turned on we are - that's just not a thing. But there was a lot of incongruous stuff I also found just goofy. By the descriptions these guys are biker-looking, but listen to rap? And their names are completely ridiculous.

My Guilty Pleasure

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I love this series. It's my guilty pleasure. I love the characters, the stories and the narrator. Can't wait for number 11 .
