My Review: 5/5 Stars

Been almost a year since the last Black Dagger Brotherhood story and even though this was a novella, it was awesome to dive back into that world. Plus, it made me even more excited for the next novel that comes out in a couple of months! I actually really enjoyed Ahmare and Duran's story. And I gotta say it was pretty long considering it's supposed to be a novella, but I will never complain about a long story! They are such interesting characters and I really hope they appear in the upcoming BDB books. 

Duran has been held prisoner for 20 years. The only thing keeping him going is the thought of revenge against the one who is holding him prisoner and his father who handed him over. What he doesn't expect is for Ahmare to be his key to freedom. Ahmare is desperate to save her brother who is being held by Duran's captor. In order to free him, she needs Duran's help. Their stories are filled with loss and tragedy, but they find hope and love in one another. A chance for a future...if they survive. Action, romance, and some pretty awesome new characters, this book is a great addition to the BDB world.
