Publisher's summary

New York Times best seller

In an exclusive novella set in the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, J. R. Ward tells the story of a fiery couple...doomed by an undeniable passion.

Features a special preview of J. R. Ward’s upcoming Black Dagger Brotherhood novel, The Thief!

The last place Ivie expects to be approached by a devastatingly handsome male is in a crowded, smoky cigar bar rarely frequented by vampires - yet here he stands. Silas is flirtatious, gallant, and, above all, mysterious. Ivie is anything but. A nurse at the healer’s clinic and the daughter of a biker, Ivie is accustomed to speaking her mind. So she does. Since aristocrats rarely pick up females of her class, Ivie asks Silas just what kind of game he thinks he’s playing.

Despite her guarded exterior, Ivie surrenders to the fierce desire she feels for Silas. And yet, just as their courtship is heating up, he reveals that it cannot last, for he is bound to return to the Old Country. Their bond only deepens as they make the most of their precious time together. But when she learns the truth, Ivie must find a saving grace - before all is lost....

JR Ward does not fail…

Hard to understand or comprehend how one person can encompass as much talent as Ms Ward…
Her fans are blessed and privileged the Joy Her Incredible mind offers and the life lessons “relearned” through her lovely pros.

Great little novella

My only complaint was that there was no female narrator. The narrator did a nice job but I’d prefer a female narrator also.

Loved it!

Beautiful love story! Silas and Ivie were terrific together. It was a pleasure to see Havers in a better light. I thoroughly enjoy reading stories about non-brotherhood characters. It enriches the entire series for me.

An emotional rollercoaster!

This is an aside from the usual BDB characters and adventures. The story involves 2 new characters and a different but very real, very poignant story that will make you laugh and cry. It's totally worth the listen, but do be prepared for an emotional rollercoaster with no cliffhangers.
My hope is that we will see some of these characters again in the BDB world, for other adventures.
This author weaves stories so incredible that I often feel like this other race of people really exists and that I somehow...KNOW them.

This was a great addition to the Brotherhood. Wishing it would have went on but the ending was as always lovely.
