Fresh Fiction Review

A Bloom in Winter

Romance Paranormal | Holiday

J.R. Ward really surprised me with A BLOOM IN WINTER. I had no idea that I would love this book so much. I guess it’s because it’s a side story set in the Black Dagger Brotherhood world, so I was expecting it to be a short read. However, I found myself immersed in this world from page one.

 

Interestingly, it is a holiday-themed story, which I think adds more to its charm. I loved the romance between Apex and Callum. In fact, I wouldn’t have minded if this story was part of the main series. Their romance burns slowly but brightly and I could really feel the emotions that the author put into it. It reminded me of why I love Ward’s writing so much.

 

Now that shifters becoming a bigger part of the vampiric world, I find that there are more possibilities now. The worldbuilding has so much more going on than what we see in this book, so I’m very excited to see how Ward will continue with this series. Needless to say, I devoured this book and can’t wait for my next Black Dagger Brotherhood fix!

SUMMARY

Another sexy, high-stakes holiday spinoff installment of the New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

Nothing warms a cold heart like true love, and in this newest Black Dagger Brotherhood winter book, a fighter who has never been a savior finds himself falling in love—and trying to rescue—a male who’s lost all hope.

With the BDB training center reopening, and the Brothers looking to add more soldiers in the war against the Lessening Society, fan favorite Callum decides to find his purpose in fighting. Apex knows what suffering the male has survived, and he joins the program just to make sure Callum doesn’t get himself killed. As the two hit the streets, and the danger gets real, Callum must decide whether he can open himself up to love or if he will give in to his inner darkness and spiral down into an abyss of hatred and death...forever.
