NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In an exclusive ebook novella set in the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, J. R. Ward tells the story of a fiery couple . . . doomed by an undeniable passion. Features a special preview of J. R. Ward’s upcoming Black Dagger Brotherhood novel, The Thief! The last place Ivie expects to be approached by a devastatingly handsome male is in a crowded, smoky cigar … devastatingly handsome male is in a crowded, smoky cigar bar rarely frequented by vampires—yet here he stands. Silas is flirtatious, gallant, and, above all, mysterious. Ivie is anything but. A nurse at the healer’s clinic and the daughter of a biker, Ivie is accustomed to speaking her mind. So she does. Since aristocrats rarely pick up females of her class, Ivie asks Silas just what kind of game he thinks he’s playing.
Despite her guarded exterior, Ivie surrenders to the fierce desire she feels for Silas. And yet, just as their courtship is heating up, he reveals that it cannot last, for he is bound to return to the Old Country. Their bond only deepens as they make the most of their precious time together. But when she learns the truth, Ivie must find a saving grace—before all is lost. . . .

Dearest Ivie was soo good and really emotional. J.R. Ward did it again she made me flippin cry. I was really scared it was going to be another “The Shadows” on me. I don’t think I could have handled it, but the Warden pulled it off! She wrote a beautiful insta-love novella that took me on a major ride that felt longer than 145 pages. I hope we see more of Ivie and Silas. Also I have not liked Havers since he treated his sister like crap, and tried to kill Wrath but I found myself soften to him a little in this book.
All of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books are so awesome I have read all of them seven times so far.
I have a feeling Ward threw us this novella because we’ll be seeing these characters pop up in her famous Black Dagger Brotherhood series. I liked this couple. Ward can do no wrong in my opinion.
Love All her stuff
Although nothing was ever mentioned in the previous books about I’ve & Silas I thought this was a pretty good novella. JWard did it again. I wish this story was just a little longer because I love the BDB series do much.
I loved this addition to the BDB series! So much story for a novella.
I’ll be honest, at one point I was crying and cursing Ward for breaking the romance HEA covenant again. I needn’t have worried – she brings this terrific novella home in a big way!
Loved this novella set in the Black Dagger Brotherhood world. Hope to get a glimpse of the characters in future BDB books.
Love it!!!!
This may be my favorite of the novellas from BDB. This story is nothing like I expected, introduced new characters, and gave us a deeper look into old friends. Be prepared to take an emotional journey that is both unpredictable and inspirational.
J R Ward NEVER disappoints!!
Not Ward’s usual, just different enough to be very entertaining. A good read.
It was a short story and a fast read. Enjoyable. Not a lot of in depth characters.
If you love the brothers, you’ll love this book as well
Always love J R Ward.
JR Ward does it every time….her characters come alive and she makes you feel as though you know them….and miss them after you have read the book. Witty, romantic, humorous, intense and very real personalities and life’s situations. I can never put her books down and when I’m forced to so I can sleep and go to work, I think about that book all day and can’t wait to get back to it. I read at lunch on my Kindle app too!!!!
J R Ward is an amazing story teller. Her books are always entertaining and action packed. She keeps your interest and makes you want more. Her Black Dagger stories are amazing! I can’t put them down. I just wish that they came out faster and a little cheaper.
J.R. Ward always meets my expectations & sometimes exceeds them. This book melted my heart. It wasn’t what I expected coming from the BDB world, but sometimes the unexpected can be surprisingly good & incredibly heartfelt. Beautiful job by the Warden!
If you didn’t know the world of J. R. Ward then you might have a little trouble following but not much. I was completely blind-sided by this story and was crying buckets. Very emotional on both ends of the spectrum.
The story was a novella, so short it covered only the basics.
