Product Description
Within the brotherhood, Rhage is the vampire with the strongest appetite. He's the best fighter, the quickest to act on his impulses, and the most voracious lover-for inside him burns a ferocious curse cast by the Scribe Virgin.
Possessed by this dark side, Rhage fears the times when his inner dragon is unleashed, making him a danger to everyone around him. When Mary Luce is unwittingly thrown into the vampire world, she must rely on Rhage's protection. Knowing that Mary feels the same intense animal attraction, Rhage must make her his alone...

 How could I not... August 13, 2008
I love this novel just as I did the first "Dark Lover", how could I not. OMG!! I am in love with BDB, but I have to say Mary got on my nerves! That woman was so back and forth she drove poor Rhage up the wall. A vampires love is deep especially once they have marked/bonded their female. He did so much 2 show his love and devotion 2 her and she could not understand y..GIRL GONE!! I'm towards the end of the 3rd installment by J.R. Ward, I'm loving every word..I'm truly a fan.
 Love Eternal great August 10, 2008
i love the suspense and the drama and it shows if the least likely to fall in love still can.
Great second book August 6, 2008
Just as great as the first book. I hate the dialogue though! 'You feel me?'
I thought Rhage would have a much better back story than he did...oh well. Very ebtertaining. I'm obsessed at this point. Once again, the leading female was forgettable while the guys just jumped to life. I'm busting at the seams to read Zsadist's part next.
 I loved the ending, but I was annoyed with most of the middle of the book. August 4, 2008
The beginning was very good and kept me interested. I didn't want to put it down. Most of the middle of the book was annoying because the conflicts between Rhage and Mary were created through vague communication and inaccurate assumptions - my pet peeve. Mary thought Rhage didn't like her. He was withdrawing because he was afraid the beast within him would hurt her, but he didn't tell her about the beast. He wanted to be with her and help her through her illness, but she didn't believe him and told him she didn't want him in her life. So he left. Another event happens that Rhage does not explain to Mary. She assumes the wrong thing and leaves him. Because of these inaccurate assumptions, I wanted to give the book 2 stars, but I gave it 3 stars for two reasons. I love the parts of the story about the beast, and I love this family of characters and their war against the lessers.
Sexual language: moderate. Number of sex scenes: seven. Setting: current day Caldwell, NY. Copyright: 2006. Genre: paranormal romantic suspense.
The books need to be read in order because stories start in early books and continue in the sequels. For a list of my reviews of other J.R. Ward books in this series, see my 5 star review of "Dark Lover" posted 1/09/08.
Mary's Love Bug July 29, 2008
JR Ward did it again. Showed me a whole different world where a super hot vampire warrior could be cursed with a purple scaled dragon inside himself. When I first read about Rhage's curse I thought she would take an easy way out and describe it as some phantom or he was dragon like or something like that. Well I was wrong. She turned him into an actual dragon. I gotta admit, I was intrigued.
While my favorite book is Dark Lover and I really love Wrath and Beth, I have a special runner up prize for Rhage and Mary. There's a more gentle tone to this book in my opinion than Dark Lover. It reads more as a romance then any of the others.
I loved reading about Mary gentling the beast within Rhage. Of all the Brothers, Rhage is the one I think I would feel the most comfortable and safe with. For someone who has a lesser hungry beast within him, there's something cuddly about him. *Sigh*
If only.
