I started reading this simply because I started to read [b:Lassiter|61295517|Lassiter (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #21)|J.R. Ward|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1655321417l/61295517._SY75_.jpg|91762165] (#21) and I was missing the backstories on important characters. I was less interested in the romance between Erika Saunders and Balthazar in this book. I was more interested in the side plot with Lassiter, Devina, Nate, and Rahvyn. The writing felt a bit clunky and forced, but I still enjoy revisiting the world that Ward has created.

If this is the way the series is going, I may take my leave.

Pretty disappointing. None of the characters were captivating. The plot felt spread too thin. I hate to say it but I might be over BDB books...

Me 7 years ago would have really loved this book. Me today, just am not into all that sexual descriptions anymore. Minus the sex stuff, solid 3 star book. The story was good, the characters were great, and I did love the ending. But I don't know how I feel about Lash being back or how things with Raven went at the end when she just disappeared like that. And poor, poor Nate... but also poor Lassiter. Wow, Ward, you did your characters ugly at the end.
