The results of the March Group Read poll were overwhelmingly clear. You guys want to re-read Dark Lover before the release of Lover Reborn.
I get it.
This month Vampire Book Club will be re-reading the very first Black Dagger Brotherhood novel and remembering just why we fell for the vampire warriors J.R. Ward so deftly crafted. If you haven’t yet joined the BDB bandwagon, now’s the time. There is a reason this book is at the top of our paranormal romance recommended reads list.
So, readers, hit the comments and let everyone know if you’re ready to read/re-read the story of a reluctant king of vampires falling head-over-heels for a tenacious woman. (And get a heavy dose of vampire sexy times.)
Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood #1)
J.R. Ward
Published: 2005
Purchase at: Book Depository or Amazon
In the shadows of the night in Caldwell, New York, there’s a deadly turf war going on between vampires and their slayers. There exists a secret band of brothers like no other-six vampire warriors, defenders of their race. Yet none of them relishes killing more than Wrath, the leader of The Black Dagger Brotherhood.
The only purebred vampire left on earth, 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-leaving his half-breed daughter unaware of his existence or her fate-Wrath must usher her into the world of the undead-a world of sensuality beyond her wildest dreams.

PS. Considering moving our chats back to Twitter. If you hate this idea, please say so in the comments.
Just found you guys. I’m in. (Although I liked the second of the BDB series better.) How will I know when you have the online chat?
By the way, I don’t use twitter, so I would vote “no”, although I don’t have the seniority to influence much.
Thanks for doing this!
I’m in.
I think I could read Dark Lover a thousand times (an enjoy every single one)
I just found you guys via Twitter – yay! I have read this book before, but I’m always up for a good book discussion
Welcome, Sue! This one will likely be a re-read for most, but should have a very fun discussion. I expect not only will we talk about the plot, but bonding scents, those names and everything else fun about BDB.
Count me in. I love BDB. It is no hardship to re-read Dark Lover. Thanks for doing this.
No twitter!
I second the no twitter
Loved Dark Lover!! No to twitter, please!
Just started reading Dark Lover so very excited to join this group discussion.
I voted for Dark Lover for the March read…this will be my 4th time!!!! Love the BDB!!!
I would be joining in, but in my library system there are only 2 copies. One is missing and the other is on it’s way to another library. :’( Maybe I’ll get money or giftcards and be able to buy it since my birthday is Friday. *crosses fingers*
I think I’ll join in, this is the perfect reason to finally read the book.
I absolutely love this book, but I don’t currently have it because I decided to share the BDB love with someone who hadn’t read them yet. Since I’ve already read it at least 3 times, I could probably still join in on the discussion though. *sigh*
I read Dark Lover four years ago, and now i´m a fan of the series. I´d love to join in.
PS: no to twitter.
I can re-read these books again and again too..
