This book picks up where House of Théoden leaves off.
Having proven that he is the strongest of Ara’s son, Lord Théoden is rewarded with the title and position of Prince of the City. With new responsibilities and edicts to carry out, Théoden is ready to preside over his territory. However, things aren’t going as smoothly as he’d hoped when one of vampires in his charge ends up dead under suspicious circumstances. Now, he has to figure out who did it, and why, and then make them pay.
Noel is realizing that the life of a vampire is everything he’s ever wanted. The freedom, the pleasure, and the control… it excites him. And even when given the command to sire his own son, he rises to the occasion. However, Romeo, his new fledgling is willful and Noel has to take what he’s still learning and teach his own child. That is his biggest challenge.
Deacon, the Forrest Grove werewolf Alpha, had just formed an alliance with the new Prince of the City, Théoden and he couldn’t be happier. The wolf see an opportunity to not only eliminate one of his enemies with Théoden’s help, but also gain new territory if he plays his cards right. He’s already put the wheels into motion. If that wasn’t the cherry on top, the deal he made with Théoden resulted in his mate being practically gift wrapped for him. Elijah is stubborn, claims he’s straight and wants nothing to do with Deacon. Of course, the Alpha has waited four centuries for his true mate and he’s not going to let him go now.
Reader Advisory: Stubborn mates, possessive alpha males, more kinks than you can count, and colorful language that may cause severe blushing. Adult content, violence, and all kinds of sexual situations. Proceed with caution. 18+ Mature readers.

Well wasn’t this interesting. We get to see inside Deacon , the Alpha wolf’s, mind. And here’s the thing…. I want to hate him because it feels like he’s trying to mess with Theoden and his boys. But at the same time I’m utterly intrigued by him and how he is with his mate. Shockingly, I don’t find the wolves to be as torturous or brutal as the vampires. Deacon is ridiculously tame when it comes to punishing his mate when he’s out of line. Whereas Theoden would burn your internal organs, watch them grow back and then rip off other appendages just because you said no.
There’s serious plot thickening in this season and I feel a war is brewing. I can only hope that the vamp guys fair well! I’m getting attached to them. But this is Nicholas Bella and that mind of his is scary!!!!
Must read this series if you haven’t already!

I hated waiting for the next book to be published! That is my only negatives comment. In addition you can use the Kindle app that reads the text to you it works on Amazon Fire tablet & PCs too.
Cant wait to get my pass on the next book. The sex scenes will have you pop a boner before you realize it!
I can re-read any books and pick up something I missed on last read. There is plenty to read at very good prices. Can't praise these books enough! Did I say these series are excellent?

Im not sure I can write A review on these and it being allowed to be published but il try.
I loved The whole concept the way the Author wrote these books, the coming together of a family of Vampires in a way that is alot of sexy for the readers, its so damn hard to find good stories like these with all fractions of a world in which the Author has created, the way Theoden embraces his sons, the fact they are called sons, I took a while getting that one over me.
As I dipped into this Authors mind and his ability to capture the Audience, He makes no Apologies for the warnings in the front of the books, it's a do or dare series, a sit back enjoy the ride of a lifetime, there is no Author I can compare to this one, a master at all things vampire, the only truly sad thing is this series will eventually come to a end, The brothers are a easy like, even in all their evilness Marco I love him for his unwavering honorability even to his brothers he hates them one minute loves them the next, If you immortal it's alright to have a bad temper and love sex.
Noel What can I say I love this vampire; I truly fell for this series and have since read all This Authors work a truly gifted writer.
Much more to love about this series, why don't you try it?

When challenged, Théoden must step up and prove that he is the strongest. In addition to that, King Ara has given a new edict, every vampire must sire another and he has one target in particular that he wants Théoden to embrace.

Feeling a bit betrayed...
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2019

I say betrayed because in book one Theoden talked about how he usually doesn't 'share' his children, but in book two he's sharing them out left and right, even using them as pawns to get things he wants. He pimps Noel out more than once to acquire things to further his own ends, and not just Noel either. On one hand Theoden 'thinks' to himself about caring about Noel, and then his actions betray that by his pimping Noel out at the drop of a hat. How can you care about someone but then treat them like their some object without feelings? But then again we're talking about a sadomasochist who tortures and maims people and sends children to slaughter. I just felt the author wasn't consistent with Theoden's view of his children. You can't say, "I don't usually share" and then the following book be handing them out like candy... unless the author is trying to portray him as some sort of hypocrite who, like so many humans, say one thing but do the exact opposite while still believing they're behaving like they initially claim.
Overall the book was awesome and I couldn't put it down... now I'm looking forward to continuing Dante's saga and hearing more of how things go with Deacon's new 'mate

Can there be too much sex?

If you like violent dominating vampires, torture and LOTS of M/M sex, you will love this author. But about this point in the series it starts to get to the point where you really want them to get on with the actual plot and all the sex and violence is sort of in the way. Because this author actually has a pretty interesting plot under all that sex. I know! who expects that? So I found I was actually getting bored with the sex scenes (which is so unlike me). I will say I liked the previous books in this series slightly better as they had a good balance going between telling the story and hot scenes of lust and dominance- and hope to get back to see if the series finds its equilibrium again in the next part

This is the second book in The New Haven Book Series
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2020
What can I say about this book of for this whole series well I started with Joel's story Chained in Darkness I'm not gonna lie this type of book is very hard for me to read . I had to stop and start a lot I just hated everybody except Noel . I hated what happened too him how he was betrayed and how he was turned/Embraced against his will but I kept going because I was hoping for a story in stead of all the over the top SEX . I get that because of their nature being the children of Theoden that they have to live a certain way and I understood that after the Author finally explained this . And the story got better and better after I found out about all the brother's their back story and what kind of men they where before they were embraced . Not only that but I understood were Theoden was coming from in the way he ran his family and city . And finally we get to see Noel evolve into the vampire that he will become . I'm actually looking forward too continuing this series and trust me I didn't think that I'd ever say that Lol
