The ruthless and brilliant brother Vishous possesses a destructive curse and a frightening ability to see the future. As a member of the Brotherhood, he has no interest in love or emotion, only the battle with the Lessening Society. But when a mortal injury puts him in the care of a human surgeon, Dr. Jane Whitcomb compels him to reveal his inner pain and taste true pleasure for the first time-until a destiny he didn't choose takes him into a future that does not include her...
I couldn't put this book down! J.R. Ward had me drawn in within the first chapter. You meet Jane when she's just a young girl, and see she lives a secluded life. One night her and her little sister, Hannah, decide to play with a Ouija board. When she asks who will she marry the board answers "Vishous". That had me right there! I couldn't wait for them to meet and for her to realize that he was the man she was destined to marry!!
Vishous gets shot in the alley and is taken to a human hospital where Jane is his surgeon and saves his life. When he comes to the first thing he hears is her voice and he immediately is drawn to her like a bonded male. Which scares him since he's the most untrusting of the Brothers.
He then has his Brothers kidnap her when they come to evacuate him from the hospital.
At first Jane is scared but of course, she eventually falls in love.
Vishous later finds out he is the son of the none other-Scribe Virgin!!! And it turns out he is supposed to be the Primale. Thankfully things get worked out, but the worse happens...Jane is shot and killed.
I was totally happy with the book until the VERY end. The way J.R. Ward brings Jane back into the story is just weird and crazy! Didn't make any sense to me. But hey, Vishous is happy so I am happy! :)
So ready to start the next book!
