The Black Dagger Brotherhood is an ancient order of warrior vampires who defend their race against the lessers, vampire slayers who have been recruited by the Omega (an evil supernatural being who wants all vampires destroyed.) There are six warriors in the Brotherhood and these warriors are all that stand between the civilian vampires and the extinction of the vampire species at the hands of the lessers.
Set in present day Caldwell, New York ‘Dark Lover’ is the first in a series of novels about the Black Dagger Brotherhood. You won't regret it! An absolute must-read!. I don't get a chance to read very often, but I make time for her books because they are so vivid and evocative that I get lost in the scenes in a way that doesn't happen for me very often. Tied together by missing jewels, there is danger, romance and mystery-and also a wonderful paranormal element that, no surprise, really speaks to me. Suzanne Belperron, one of the great innovators of jewelry design, and a personal icon of mine, is depicted with painstaking accuracy (thanks to extensive research) in the forties- and our contemporary heroine, Violine Duplessi, carries the story into the eighties. Following two story lines, one set in 1986, and the other in occupied France in 1942, there is a expert interweaving of historical fact and the kind of fiction that is so well constructed and executed, that it feels like real life.
