Publisher's Summary

J.R. Ward's number-one New York Times best-selling Black Dagger Brotherhood continues as a royal bloodline is compromised by a grave threat to the throne.

Long live the king.…

After turning his back on the throne for centuries, Wrath, son of Wrath, finally assumed his father's mantle - with the help of his beloved mate. But the crown sets heavily on his head. As the war with the Lessening Society rages on, and the threat from the Band of Bastards truly hits home, he is forced to make choices that put everything - and everyone - at risk.

Beth Randall thought she knew what she was getting into when she mated the last pure blooded vampire on the planet: An easy ride was not it. But when she decides she wants a child, she's unprepared for Wrath's response - or the distance it creates between them.

The question is, will true love win out... or tortured legacy take over?

excellent but..

I love this whole series. but I was very disappointed when I reached chapter 23 which was clearly out of order. this is a scene from later in the book that should not have been there and gave away a LOT of the ending.

Okay. trying to keep listening and continuing to come across more out of order chapters. it's disappointing. all the effort that went into this book only to muck it up with some bad editing.

Until they fix this I will leave this review low.
