Synopsis:
A vampire aristocrat, Peyton is well aware of his duty to his bloodline: mate with an appropriate female of his class and carry on his family’s traditions. And he thought he’d found his perfect match—until she fell in love with someone else. Yet when his split-second decision in a battle with the enemy endangers the life of another trainee, Peyton has to face the idea that his future, and his heart, actually lie with another.
Novo, as a female in the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s training program, feels like she has to prove herself to everybody—and she has no interest in being distracted by falling in love. But when Peyton proves to be so much more than a rich playboy, she is forced to confront the tragedy that has broken her soul and closed her off from love.
As the two grapple with Novo’s past and Peyton’s present, another couple must contend with an erotic connection that is unparalleled—and potentially scandalous.
Saxton, who has had his heart broken, discovers in himself a deep-seated attraction to Ruhn, a new member of the household. But will the other male explore the connection? Or will he close his mind and his heart to what could be true love . . . and cost Saxton everything?

Review:
Another fang*tastic read in the Black Dagger Legacy series as well as the Black Dagger Brotherhood world overall! Loved every single minute of it! A soulful, yearning, tormented vibe permeates Blood Fury as characters grieve unrequited love, even as they shore up their walls and vow to never trust their heart to anyone again . . . their bodies, yes . . . their hearts & souls, no. As always, Ward flawlessly manipulates characters and their destinies while weaving multiple plotlines as masterfully as an orchestra conductor. The life she breathes into these characters and settings is truly amazing - so emotional, so heartfelt, so real that I lived every single moment with them.
I'm not going to rehash the storylines here. If you've read the series, you know the players, their circumstances, and what's at stake. If you haven't read them, I highly recommend you start at the beginning and buckle up for the ride. It's bumpy, addictive, and highly explosive, but worth every single minute. I love the intermingling of characters between the BDB and BDL series. It's a great opportunity for a sneak peek into the daily lives of favorite BDB characters as they guide and teach the trainees in the BDL books. The best of both worlds!
Blood Fury is an emotional, fast-paced story that is guaranteed to break your heart and then put it all back together better than new. Two different couples find their destiny in this one, but the road to happy-ever-after is never smooth. Fans have long-awaited Saxton's happy-ever-after, and Ward does not disappoint. I'd be remiss if I didn't say it involves some of the hottest scenes in the BDB world. Holy Moly! Intense! Again, I'm not discussing specifics so readers can take that ride first-hand. Like Saxton, Peyton's journey involves unrequited love and a surprising discovery. I must confess that I wasn't a huge fan of Peyton after the first two Legacy books as he came off as arrogant and superficial, but with the unmasking of hearts and souls that occurs in Blood Fury, my opinion has drastically changed. I'm now a believer. And be forewarned - Peyton also plays a starring role in some scorching hot scenes!
For this reader, the magic that is Black Dagger Brotherhood/Legacy continues! May it never end! Blood Fury is another Page-Burning, Must Read in this world!
