Material Type: Hard cover
Summary:

 #1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward's novels of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continue as a vampire warrior crosses the line between life and death, and ventures into an erotic world of dark dreams and darker desires. Ever since the death of his shellan, Tohrment has been unrecognizable from the vampire leader he once was. Physically emaciated and heartbroken beyond despair, he has been brought back to the Brotherhood by a self-serving fallen angel. Now, fighting once again with ruthless vengeance, he is unprepared to face a new kind of tragedy. When Tohr begins to see his beloved in his dreams-trapped in a cold, isolated netherworld far from the peace and tranquillity of the Fade-he turns to the angel in hopes of saving the one he has lost. But because Lassiter tells him he must learn to love another to free his former mate, Tohr knows they are all doomed.... Except then a female with a shadowed history begins to get through to him. Against the backdrop of the raging war with the lessers, and with a new clan of vampires vying for the Blind King's throne, Tohr struggles between the buried past and a very hot, passion-filled future, but can his heart let go and set all of them free?

Staff Review:

This is the long awaited story of Tohrment. Will he finally come to terms with the death of his 'shellan' and their infant son? Will his grief keep them from entering the Fade? Can he learn to let go of the past and love another? The future seems very dark for all involved.

Lover Reborn also catches up with characters from previous books in this series.  The Black Dagger Brotherhood is still waging its war against the Lessing society. A new enemy also emerges from the past.  J.R. Ward does it again with this next installment.

Great read!
