About this listen
Nothing is as it used to be for the Black Dagger Brotherhood.
After avoiding war with the Shadows, alliances have shifted, and lines have been drawn. The slayers of the Lessening Society are stronger than ever, preying on human weakness to acquire more money, more weapons, more power. But as the Brotherhood readies for an all-out attack on them, one of their own fights a battle within himself....
For Rhage, the Brother with the biggest appetites but also the biggest heart, life was supposed to be perfect - or at the very least perfectly enjoyable. Mary, his beloved shellan, is by his side, and his king and his brothers are thriving. But Rhage can't understand - or control - the panic and insecurity that plague him...and that terrifies him as well as distances him from his mate.
After suffering a mortal injury in battle, Rhage must reassess his priorities - and the answer, when it comes to him, rocks his world...and Mary's. But Mary is on a journey of her own, one that will either bring them closer together or cause a split that neither will recover from....

Darius, son of Marklon, isn’t looking for love the night destiny comes to claim him. He’s also not expecting to crash his new car. But when a human woman runs out into the road and he must swerve to avoid killing her...everything goes off course. Disillusioned by his King’s lack of leadership and the losses in the war against the Lessening Society, Darius finds purpose in protecting a woman he cannot make his own. Love finds a way, however—until the truth of what he is comes out and she leaves him in horror.

Story
When Lyric goes out for the night, she’s not ready for a brush with death—and she’s really not ready for the male who comes out of nowhere and saves her. Her family, especially her father, Qhuinn, are so relieved she’s okay, but all she can think about is her mysterious savior. Without telling anybody, she seeks out Devlin, and they are immediately drawn to one another. Her near-death experience has given her a fresh appreciation for life and the desire to live it to its fullest, but she has no idea that he’s hiding a secret.

The feels
This is so far the book that caused the biggest laughs and the most tears. Striving to remind us that emotions are real our reactions to them amd the situations are real as well as ok. In real life its hard to remember that.
Jim's inflection in bringing each of the character's to life never ceases to amaze me.

Ward wins again
As a huge fannif the Black Dagger Brotherhood I can say that I was very happy ( not always) with this story. Definitely had so e heartstrings moments.
As a first time #Audible1 reader of J.R. Ward i can say I wasn’t completely as taken in by the narrator as i would have liked. His presentation wasn’t as “Raw” as i would have liked. Didn’t have the swag to his voice that i would have expected from a Brother. The narrative was too refined and lacked the attitude that is intrinsic in the Brotherhood. Still, overall the book was great.
