Review
“The adventure continues in the twelfth Midnight Breed novel from prolific and talented [Lara] Adrian. This time it’s Nathan, a first generation Breed vampire who was raised as an emotionless hunter, who takes center stage. In the previous book, the revelation of a new enemy turned the world of the Breeds and humans upside down, forging new alliances. Although polar opposites, the fire that sparks between Nathan and privileged Jordana Gates is not to be denied—ensuring readers are in for one thrilling and romantic read!”—RT Book Reviews
“Nothing beats good writing and that is what ultimately makes Lara Adrian stand out amongst her peers. . . . Adrian doesn’t hold back with the intensity or the passion. The sexual tension between Nathan and Jordana is off the charts and sizzles each of the pages. While slow-burning in intensity at the beginning, Adrian really shows off her writing skill in a series of twists that will surely make reader’s head spin. . . . Crave the Night is stunning in its flawless execution. Lara Adrian has the rare ability to lure readers right into her books, taking them on a ride they will never forget.”—Under the Covers

As a long standing fan of the Midnight Breed series, I was disappointed by Crave The Night. Not, because it’s not action packed and sexy, because it is. But, because it’s too predictable.
It’s an instalove story. There is no scene or conversation between Nathan or Jordana that made me feel as if they were falling in love. It’s all lust and animal magnetism. It’s all long looks across rooms and heated eyes. These two characters don’t know each other. Sure, they want sex, but they don’t actually know if they like each other. All of a sudden there’s talk of dying to save the other and it’s like, huh? What has happened to meld this intense bond of emotion? Nothing that I read.
Another reason it’s predictable is that Nathan is just another damaged hero. I have to admit that I’m a little ticked by this. Because, I read a Deeper than Midnight. I saw all of what Corinne went through to get her son back. Ok, he was 12 or 13 when he was saved from Dragos’ lair, but if this book is to believed the next 20 years meant nothing. Nathan doesn’t like to be touched. There’s a scene where Jordana tends his injuries and he’s all never has anyone done this for me….You mean to tell me that Corinne never hugged her boy, never healed his injuries, never wiped his sweat or tears?!
When Nathan becomes all obsessed with Jordana and they notice, Lucan asks Hunter his advice and Hunter is all, “he’s our son, but he’s already a man when he came to us…” So, I wasted all my time with Deeper than Midnight, because they never actually saved him. He was physically free and that was enough for his parents cuz at 12 he was already a man and after risking their lives for him they just let him skulk alone without touch or affection? Bull!Read more ›

This book was absolutely awesome! The best of the best in paranormal romance novels. With CRAVE THE NIGHT, book #12 in the stellar Midnight Breed series, talented author Lara Adrian has by far surpassed anything even this loyal fan had expected. It just blew me away!
This is Nathan and Jordana's story, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but it is definitely my favorite book yet. Imagine that! I loved it even more than Darker After Midnight, which was Chase and Tavia's book. In my defense there were a lot of similarities, though, when it came to those revelations that changed the direction of this entire series. Of course, I can't let anything out of the bag, but this one took some unexpected turns throughout the story.
This book brought some big changes to the series. At the heart of it all was a mystery and deep abiding love. The kind of love that developed between Nathan and Jordana. It was a redemption of sorts for Nathan after everything he had endured. It heralded true empowering freedom to Jordana. Their love ushered in new allies and enemies as well. Nothing was as it seemed and many perceptions were changed as the story took a turn that was sad and tragic at times. It was emotional on so many levels. Finally, it's a Midnight Breed novel, so there was some violence and action.
With everything that this book brings into play, it is easily one of the best I've read. Really. As soon as the last page was flipped I immediately started reading it all over again. Just as I am sure it's one I'll be reading over and over countless times.
I will say that it was wonderful how most of the older generation showed up in this one, while I enjoyed meeting the newer ones as well. Can't wait to get into their stories as well.
This one is a 5 star book for sure! I'd give it more if I could. So I am calling CRAVE THE NIGHT a big winner for me!

Born into a violent life of absolute obedience, Nathan now leads a team for the Order in their ongoing battle to protect vampires and mortals. He uses his assassin training mercilessly against his enemies and prides himself for being able to keep his emotions in check. That is until a kiss from a high society darling threatens to shatter his self-control. Ever since her impulsive kiss, Jordana’s life of privilege and careful planning feels so dull. Her feelings for Nathan scare her and his demanding touch sets her on fire and makes her crave more. As she contemplates her future, a visit from a mysterious man puts her at the center of Nathan’s investigation, making her question everything that’s happened between them.
Dragos’ brutal Hunter training program tried to beat the emotions out of Nathan but all it did was bury them deep. At times, he comes off as being cold towards Jordana but he knows no other way of reacting and evolves as she works past his defenses and makes herself a necessity in his life. His own style of intense passion burns hot and only for Jordana and it’s such a huge draw. The change in his character feels right for the path he’s on and only adds to his appeal. So far, he’s my favorite hero in the new batch of Breed warriors fans got after the 20 year time jump in the previous book.
Jordana is…engaging enough. She has a kind heart but spends a lot of time in the beginning denying what she feels for Nathan and hides behind her father and his plans for her, one that includes a well-respected fiance that she has ZERO chemistry with. By the time she realizes Nathan is the one, she acts quickly and out of character and it comes off as forced. Surprising though, I found the sex scenes to be blazing hot. All credit goes to Nathan.Read more ›
