highly recommended

He watches her from across the crowded dance club, a sensual black-haired stranger who stirs Gabrielle Maxwell?s deepest fantasies. But nothing about this night?or this man?is what it seems. For when Gabrielle witnesses a murder outside the club, reality shifts into something dark and deadly. In that shattering instant she is thrust into a realm she never knew existed?a realm where vampires stalk the shadows and a blood war is set to ignite.

Lucan Thorne despises the violence carried out by his lawless brethren. A vampire himself, Lucan is a Breed warrior, sworn to protect his kind?and the unwitting humans existing alongside them?from the mounting threat of the Rogues. Lucan cannot risk binding himself to a mortal woman, but when Gabrielle is targeted by his enemies, he has no choice but to bring her into the dark underworld he commands.

Here, in the arms of the Breed?s formidable leader, Gabrielle will confront an extraordinary destiny of danger, seduction, and the darkest pleasures of all. . . .

Loved it!!!

I always steered away from her because some people in my Dark Dagger Brotherhood group said her books were a pale imitation of J.R. Ward's books. I can see simulairity--such as the Breeds are Warriors and they have a war to fight--but it isn't against baby powdered crazies--that are on the dark side--they are fellow Vampire Breed who have given way to Bloodlust and have turned Rogue...They can have children, but only with Breedmates--a human woman with special DNA.

I really enjoued Gabby and Lucan's stories and look forward to reading about the other Warrior Breeds--especially Tegan. I think if and when Rio's book comes out it will be very interesting because I think he is going to be suffering more mentally, then he will physically!

Vampire

easy to read, entertaining - for those times when you want to sit and have a fun read.

Great book!

I love this series, it was a great book. Fast paced, it kept me reading and I couldn't put it down. I can't get enough of Lara Adrian's books.

Not what I wanted

....I must first admit I have always been a historical Romance reader, until I recently read Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series, and loved it so much, that I thought I would try other Romance novels with Vampires.

Well, so far, no luck for me. I will say the love scenes are really steamy and Erotic. But I could not connect with the characters. This just isnt what I was looking for. I don't mind steamy and erotic, but I think I was looking for a more Gentler romance book. I'm more of a Dark Shadows and Braham S. Dracula kind of Gal.

Good & Only Gets Better

Read the BDB series and needed a quick fix. This series is good and has some interesting moments. LA creates an intriguiing world: Gen One, Breed, Dark Haven and Rogue. Lucan sees Gabrielle at a night club and immediately fixates on her. She sees a horrifying Rogue attack outside that club then the action never stops. There are some simiilarties to JR Ward's world but not to the extent of dismissing this series. LA does a good job creating her warriors & the conflict within the vampire world. She does not give extensive character backgrounds but the characters are still full of color.

I highly recommend this series esp. for those who can not WAIT for JR Ward's next installment - May 2009 YIKES! The compendium does not count.
I also recommend on its own merits. Good writing, great action
