A Bloom in Winter

De: J.R. Ward

Narrado por: Jim Frangione

Another sexy, high-stakes holiday spinoff installment of the New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

Nothing warms a cold heart like true love, and in this newest Black Dagger Brotherhood winter book, a fighter who has never been a savior finds himself falling in love—and trying to rescue—a male who’s lost all hope.

With the BDB training center reopening, and the Brothers looking to add more soldiers in the war against the Lessening Society, fan favorite Callum decides to find his purpose in fighting. Apex knows what suffering the male has survived, and he joins the program just to make sure Callum doesn’t get himself killed. As the two hit the streets, and the danger gets real, Callum must decide whether he can open himself up to love or if he will give in to his inner darkness and spiral down into an abyss of hatred and death...forever.

Great!

Wonderful story, Happy to have bought it and listened. Love the series in whole.

Loved this!!

I’ve loved every BDB book I’ve read or listened to from the very beginning. I never knew I liked vampire books until I read the first BDB book!! But I do and read or listen quickly.. and I’m always waiting, impatiently, for the next book.

I am a huge fan of Jim Frangione’s voice and could most likely listen to him read the phone book!!

Read the or listen to them…. But it’s an experience you must have! I recommend them highly!!!

Great as usual!

It’s a bit confusing at first because the books jumped 30 years. Now I need to read the prison camp books to see if they can fill in some blanks! Still.. this is so worth it!

🌻Much better than the last book🌻

This book is a bridge between the original BDB series and the Prison Camp series. There are two relationships explored, in this book, Callum(the Wolven) and Apex and Mayham and a new female character.

Callum and Apex’s story started in the Prison Camp series. Callum had be physically and sexually abused, and nearly died, at the hands of the woman who ran the Prison. Apex stays at Callum’s side during Callum’s recovery, however, when Apex is gone one day, Callum disappears without a word. This book start thirty years after that event when they stumble across each other, again.

Although this book does not have the long, detailed courtship of the early novels, this book seems complete, where the previous did not.

The enemy is not Lessors, this time, but rather the new glimmera that has formed.

I was glad to finally experience the resolution of Callum and Apex’s story.

With that being said, I was very confused with the author’s summary. The summary did not describe this book, at all?

Wow!!! Again!!!

Always the story! It always keeps us close to the characters! I have listened or read, every J.R. Ward book. She has the most amazing writing skills I have ever read and listened to!
I continue my excitement, anticipation and curiosity for the next book. I have to say… the Black Dagger series has been a series I truly hope will continue through all of eternity.
Haha! Which is completely unreasonable. However, through all of her hard continued work in providing me with the best series I’ve ever read… I will continue to give the praise and appreciation this author deserves!!
I will also say, I love that she ties my (angels and demons) together with a twist of “WOW” you wouldn’t realize until you read all of the amazing books she has done.
So…. Thank you again for such an amazing book!!!

🥰

It's as good as all the rest. I love the storyline. The now and then. The blind king scares me and I'm only listening.

Beautiful

This is my first time reading a book like this . Not gonna lie it took me few times to get past chapter 2 but it was worth it . Beautifully done. I really enjoyed it.

Goodness, I So Needed This!

What beautiful gifts this author and this narrator are to their many devotees. I am certainly one. If you're new to J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood, welcome! I suggest starting with Darius or Dark Lover and journey through until you reach Bloom in Winter. If you've made the BDB trip through over 20 exciting novels, you will certainly adore Bloom in Winter. It connects the wolven and vampire worlds and gives the readers two couples to follow and enjoy. It is also a joy to listen to the ever talented Jim Frangione. It is a treat that Audible releases his version on the same release day as the Kindle version. When it comes to the Black Dagger Brotherhood, I must have both versions! In this time, when so many of us could really use an exciting and lovely escape, the autumn release of Bloom in Winter truly warms the heart. Thanks you to J. R. Ward and Jim Frangione. I really needed this! Sigh...

Love

Never disappoints love JR Wards story’s and you don’t get a better narrator than Jim

I love how I am Transported to the places in the story. So perfect and fantastic.
