Major game changers are happening in LOVER ARISEN, the latest Black Dagger Brotherhood book to come from J.R. Ward. Since one of the major story arcs has come to a close, Ward takes this opportunity to create new adventures and dangers for her well-loved characters, making this a book that you don’t want to miss.
If you’re new to the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, I always suggest reading the books from the very beginning as this is a complex series that spans several books as well as several series. But if you’re like me and are a fan of Ward’s writing, you’ll come to appreciate the intricacy of her writing. There’s a lot to love when it comes to her unique, upbeat narration as well as her hotter-than-hell heroes.
This is Balthazar’s book and while I was interested in him in the beginning, I began to see him in a better light and fell for him hard by the end of this book. I also think the heroine, Erika, brought a fierceness to the book that I really loved. I’ve always been a fan of Ward’s style of heroine and Erika is no exception.
This book reminds me of why I fell in love with the Paranormal Romance genre. With lots of action, twists and turns, and of course, steaming-hot romance, LOVER ARISEN is a guaranteed good read!
