it was amazing

This is a spoiler-free mini-review for the SERIES, not just this book:



Do you want to meet THE. Ultimate. Alpha Male. Character?? Grab yourselves a copy of Darkfever and meet the enigmatic, mysterious, fiercely protective, powerful and dominating Jericho Z Barrons.

“He didn't just occupy space; he saturated it. The room had been full of books before, now it was full of him.�

All I can say is if you want a completed book series with an incredible plot, a unique world, and vivid, multi-layered characters with deep pasts, where EVERYTHING happens for a reason (having finished them, I realized there was absolutely NO fluff in these series at ALL), and a full-filling, heart-warming HEA, then this is the series for you.

Moning does a masterful job of building an world full of multiple complex story lines and then weaves them all together seamlessly in a way that will keep you guessing right up till the very end. (ALL my predictions were wrong! and that doesn’t happen very often)� This book will have you going crazy asking “What IS Barrons????�

“When you know who I am. Let me be your man.�

Seriously, this is one of the BEST paranormal series I have EVER read. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

It is a COMPLETED series and should be read in order. It is one continuous story. Each book starts right where the previous one left off. And the SERIES ending is a HEA. The individual books themselves have cliffhangers since the story spans 5 books.

And they are definitely ‘adult�.

“One day you will kiss a man you can’t breathe without, and find that breath is of little consequence.�

And there are a few Barrons casting visuals here to help convince you to give this series a shot :)



PS. I read these books in my pre-review writing days so I apologize for the lack of detail.

“He raised a brow. 'Petunia, Ms. Lane?'
I scowled. "Ass, Barrons.”

“You want to believe in black and white, good and evil, heroes that are truly heroic, villains that are just plain bad, but I've learned in the past year that things are rarely so simple. The good guys can do some truly awful things, and the bad guys can sometimes surprise the heck out of you.”
Karen Marie Moning, Darkfever

“What are you" -Mac

"I don't follow" -Jericho

"You dropped 30 feet in that warehouse. You should have broken something. What are you?" -Mac

"A man with a rope." -Jericho”

“Okay, Barrons, it's time."
"I am not helping you shave your legs." he said instantly.
"Oh please. As if I'd let you.”

Karen Marie Moning
“Don't accuse me of being morbid when I'm merely the product of a culture that buries the bones of the ones they love in pretty, manicured flower gardens so they can keep them nearby and go talk to them whenever they feel troubled or depressed. That's morbid. Not to mention bizarre. Dogs bury bones, too.”
Karen Marie Moning, Darkfever

“If you are not with me, you are against me. I have no mercy for my enemies.”
Karen Marie Moning, Darkfever

Karen Marie Moning
“It began as most thing begin. Not on a dark and stormy night. Not foreshadowed by ominous here comes the villain music, dire warning at the bottom of a teacup, or dread portents in the sky.
It began small and innocuously, as most catastrophes do. A butterfly flaps its wings somewhere and the wind changes, and a warm front hits a cold front off the coast of western Africa and before you know it you’ve got an hurricane closing in. By the time anyone figured out the storm was coming, it was too late to do anything but batten down the hatches and exercise damage control.”
Karen Marie Moning, Darkfever

“There are only really two positions one can take toward anything in life: hope or fear. Hope strengthens, fear kills.”

“I hammered him with my fists. He just stood and took it. He didn't suffer graciously, he looked pissed off to no end. But he let me hit him. And he didn't hit me back.”

Christina Ok OMG! Those pictures...WTF?! Holy hell. I'm drooling, like seriously! Ok so I don't normally like paranormal romance, usually I find myself rolling my eyes bc it's so tacky. I think the whole JR Ward series turned me off. They were completely tacky. But having read this review, I might give this series a shot.


Aestas Book Blog This series is nothing like the BDB. I loved them too but the writing style isn't for everyone. Pretty much everyone I've ever talked to has loved this series. Definitely worth giving a shot :)

message 24: by Kelly (new) - added it

Kelly is there really going to be 10 books?


Aestas Book Blog The first 5 tell a complete story. The other ones are like... extensions of the story. You don't have to read all 10 if you don't want. There is a completely resolved ending & HEA after book 5 :)
