ARC Review: Darker After Midnight by Lara Adrian

Darker After Midnight was a phenomenal read that I just could not put down. Sterling Chase's book was everything that I wanted plus so much more.

I had a lot of expectations for this book. I've been waiting for Chase's book for what seems like forever. From the first time he came across the page I was hooked. And with the way the things went with the last book I honestly had know idea how things were going to go with this one. Just how was Chase going to be redeemed and get his HEA. Oh.My.Goodness, but this book was AH-Mazing and I needn't have worried. There were just so many different twist and turns that happened not only with Chase but with some of the other Breed members.

Like I said previously, with the way things left off with the last book Chase had a lot to overcome and make up for. He had so many demons eating away inside and to see him attempting to fix and make up for everything was a little hard to watch. Your heart aches and you want everything to be rainbows and butterflies but that is not the way things go with this series and I wouldn't have it any other way. I feel after all the hardships Chase dealt with, he came out a stronger man.

When we were introduced to Tavia in the previous book I wasn't quite sure of her and how she would be with Chase. Oh, I shouldn't have worried because these two quickly became one of my favorite couples. I loved watching them  together and seeing their relationship grow into what it became. They both brought out the best in one another. I loved that they both were honest with their feelings and didn't play games with one another.

Tavia wasn't just some simpering female that waited around for her hero to come and save the day. She was there for Chase during his darkest times and she wasn't skittish or afraid. I honestly have a little girl crush on Tavia. I love that she is willing to kick ass to save the man that she loves and if need be sacrifice herself to help him and his cause. There aren't many people that love with that kind of fierceness and I found it refreshing.

With the way things ended in this book I can't wait to get my hands on Mira's book. Yes, that's right, Mira's book is next and I just know it's going to be awesome. Mira is another one that has fascinated me since she was introduced and I am so curious to see how she grows up.

So make sure you go out and get this book because you certainly won't be disappointed.
