Description

Two brothers bound by more than blood fight to change a brutal destiny in this novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.
 
Sold by his parents to the Queen of the s’Hisbe as a child, Trez escaped the Territory and has been a pimp and an enforcer for years. On the run from a destiny of sexual servitude, he’s never been able to rely on anyone...except for his brother, iAm.
 
iAm’s sole goal has always been to keep his brother from self-destructing—and he knows he’s failed. It’s not until the Chosen Selena enters Trez’s life that the male begins to turn things around...but by then, it’s too late. The pledge to mate the Queen’s daughter comes due, and there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and no negotiating.
 
Now Trez must decide whether to endanger himself and others—or abandon the female he loves. When tragedy strikes and changes everything, iAm, in the name of brotherly love, is faced with making the ultimate sacrifice...

    It was cool getting to know Trez and iAm in this one. It was also cool seeing the amazing integrity and honour Wrath, the brotherhood have. The end is a real tear jerker, too. This book was also different from the previous books in the series. I’m really hoping the second half of the series continues with this shift. The books really stand out from each other this way.
  • Beautifully written

    They mentioned John Green in this book and they were right. The best most beautifully written book JR Ward has done so far, but I cried like a baby. Must-read!

    This was an amazing continuation to BDB. The relationship between Trez and iAm is so touching. I read this book in one weekend because I couldn't put it down. Everything about the story was amazing. You will not be disappointed! I can't wait to see what the future holds for Trez and the rest of the brothers.

    I rarely ever cry while reading, but the character development in these stories is so good that you have to be sad with them. Really good but complex story. I'm not a fan of so many story lines but maybe that's what makes me look love these books. I do have to wait until life calms down before I start one so I can concentrate and focus. Probably why I got so emotional.

    I have to say that J.R. has delivered a very heartfelt book. One of the best book in the series. All of the characters were in or at least mentioned here. I love when that happens. Still some loose story lines but thats what makes it great because we know J.R. is still writing the BBD series!! Looking forward to the next two!
  • Another Awesome Brother Book
