The beloved (Black Dagger Brotherhood #22) de J.R. Ward

Leitura agradável e super rápida, continua a história da série Black Dagger Brotherhood com os pais a terem um papel secundário na trama e os filhos a subirem para a ribalta, dando ordem a uma nova geração e mantendo os valores dos seus pais mas com algumas diferenças, o caminho é doloroso para ambas as partes.

A personagem principal começa com Nalla, filha de Zsadist e Bella, mas não é uma heroína agradável no principio somente após relação com Nate, o futuro namorado e parceiro, e a luta de ambos para resolver os seus problemas em conjunto é que existe uma evolução neste aspecto.

Por outro lado temos Bitty, filha adotiva de Mary e Rhage, e a sua relação com o futuro rei da espécie, LW, que chama mais a atenção pelo caráter vaticinante.

Sinopse:

Zsadist. His daughter. Her true love... what could POSSIBLY go wrong?

The daughter of a legend finds the love of a lifetime in this passionate, heart-wrenching installment in J. R. Ward’s #1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series...

Nalla, the blooded daughter of Zsadist, has led a sheltered life. Protected by her father and the Brotherhood, kept away from the deadly war with the Lessening Society, she is chaffing against the walls of the very safety that has ensured her survival. One night, she gives into her restlessness... and finds herself face to face with a male whose inner darkness rivals even that of her sire’s horrific origins.

Nate is a fighter with nothing to lose- and nothing to live for. Tortured in a human lab as a young, then cursed with immortality, he is all vengeance and no purpose because he cares for no one, not even himself. The Brotherhood know this all too well, and following his deliberate violation of the cardinal rule in the war, they declare him a dangerous liability that must be dealt with.

When Nalla and Nate find themselves fighting side by side, daggers aren’t the only things that fly. A sizzling attraction is ignited, except she knows her sire will never accept him- and on his side, Nate has made a secret bargain to end his immortality. As the enemy closes in, and Nalla realizes she must choose between her mate and her sire... what starts with such passion may well end with eternal sorrow and no chance of a reunion, even in the Fade.
