About this listen

Number one New York Times best-selling author J.R. Ward is heating things up this winter with a holiday novel featuring some of her most iconic Black Dagger Brothers.

Featuring one of the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s most iconic couples, Blay and Qhuinn find themselves looking forward to their official mating ceremony. When tragedy strikes just before the happy event, all hope seems lost - and everyone in the Black Dagger Brotherhood rallies around the two of them. Will a freak winter storm bring the unthinkable, or will a warm heart in winter ensure that true love is not lost?

What the critics say

"Narrator Jim Frangione portrays vampires Blay and Qhuinn as they prepare for their mating ceremony. Qhuinn goes on an emotional journey, starting with his dark past and proceeding to his joy with Blay, followed by a tragic loss. Frangione's voice has listeners experiencing the roller-coaster ride. As a snowstorm rages, Frangione adds to the tension as trees crash down and the house plunges into darkness. Blay and Qhuinn are part of the Black Dagger Brotherhood that protects the vampire race. Frangione provides the Brothers with distinct voices, allowing the listener to easily follow who is speaking. Listeners will be fully engaged with all the characters." (AudioFile Magazine)

This was a continuation of the romance between two of the black dagger brotherhood warriors. The book had some sad parts that moved me to tears. The thing I didn’t like about it is that the story wasn’t about new characters. I had already read the book where these two first fell in love and it was beautiful. The continuation felt like pretty much the same thing so nothing exciting. The reader of the book has a sexy masculine voice, so thumbs up for that.

I think her other stories are better

JR Ward generally hits it out of the park for me always. But the story in this little book had me laughing, crying, and holding my breath. Well worth the listen.

Fantastic story as per usual.

this was a great revisit and update on some classic characters with some good new information while not being a novella that's going to make it impossible to keep going I really enjoyed this I would definitely recommend this story to someone who has stopped reading for a little while and doesn't mind spoilers it's a good time.
