There exists a secret band of brothers like no other - six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Yet none of them relishes killing their enemies more than Wrath, the leader of the Black Dagger Brotherhood...</i> The only purebred vampire left on the planet, Wrath has a score to settle with the slayers who murdered his parents centuries ago. But when one of his most trusted fighters is killed - orphaning a half-breed daughter unaware of her heritage or her fate - Wrath must usher the beautiful female into the world of the undead... Racked by a restlessness in her body that wasn't there before, Beth Randall is helpless against the dangerously sexy man who comes to her at night with shadows in his eyes. His tales of brotherhood and blood frighten her. But his touch ignites a dawning hunger that threatens to consume them both... 2158128 book 6 9 2005 Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #1) total:5369|5:2848|4:1552|3:726|2:162|1:81| 5369 23031 7780 850 3 11 false false Fri Sep 11 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 20 05:32:22 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 22 08:21:05 -0700 2009 *channeling Johnny Cash *
