About this ebook

The legacy of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continues in this gripping spin-off series from #1 New York Times bestselling author J.R. Ward.

Paradise, blooded daughter of the king’s First Advisor, is ready to break free from the restrictive life of an aristocratic female. Her strategy? Join the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s training center program and learn to fight for herself, think for herself...be herself. It’s a good plan, until everything goes wrong. The schooling is unfathomably difficult, the other recruits feel more like enemies than allies, and it’s very clear that the Brother in charge, Butch O’Neal, a.k.a. the Dhestroyer, is having serious problems in his own life.

And that’s before she falls in love with a fellow classmate. Craeg, a common civilian, is nothing her father would ever want for her, but everything she could ask for in a male. As an act of violence threatens to tear apart the entire program, and the erotic pull between them grows irresistible, Paradise is tested in ways she never anticipated--and left wondering whether she’s strong enough to claim her own power...on the field, and off.

I'm hooked on the all the black dagger brotherhood & legacy books. The pull to keep reading is so strong I cant seem to put them down. I haven't laughed and cried so much in a truly long time. Though from time to time I notice small but annoying mistakes the author missed that I can't ignore. For Example, in the beginning of this book Marissa could not get the docs from the brotherhood training center to come treat an emergency trauma case at safe place because they were just starting an operation on Tohr for compound break of his femur. Yet 2 hrs later Marissa arrives home at BDB mansion to find Tohr & his shellan having Last Meal at the table with everyone else. How was he supposed to undergo surgery on a broken leg,wake from anesthesia,jump up & immediately hike the 1/4-1/2 mile long tunnel on foot to the mansion & be sitting happily at the dinner table eating a big meal & socializing with everyone- all in 2 hrs.? That just doesn't make sense, even for vampires in these novels.

I've skipped a few of the last few titles, but this new direction was a great way to catch up with series regulars and meet a new batch of characters. The love story was okay.
