NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

In this pulse-pounding and thrillingly sensual novel, Lara Adrian returns to the mesmerizing world of the Midnight Breed, following new characters into a dark future where an uneasy peace can unravel into war—and a great betrayal can mask an all-consuming love.
 
Twenty years after the terror of First Dawn—when mankind learned that vampires lived secretly among them—the threat of violence reigns as the two species struggle to coexist. The only group preserving the fragile harmony is the Order, an elite cadre of Breed warriors dedicated to protecting humans and vampires alike. And in this precarious world of torn loyalties and shattered trust, Mira, a fiery squad captain, finds that every fight bears an intensely personal cost.
 
Raised among the Order, Mira has always believed in the warrior’s code of swift—and even lethal—justice. But the one thing she desires more than the Order’s hard-won acceptance is Kellan Archer, a sexy but troubled Breed fighter. In love with him since childhood, Mira once broke through his tough exterior during an unexpected night of rapture, but the next day he mysteriously disappeared, never to return.
 
Kellan didn’t think he would ever see Mira again—or have to confront the truth of why he left. After abandoning the Order years ago, he now leads a band of human rebels intent on carrying out their own vigilante rule of law. Yet a high-profile kidnapping assignment brings him face-to-face with the past he sought to avoid, and the striking woman he has tried desperately to forget. And as tensions mount and the risk of bloodshed grows, Kellan and Mira must take sides—between the competing missions that dominate their lives, and the electrifying passion that claims their hearts.

Read an Excerpt

December 26

The year no longer matters; neither does the date. After what’s happening right now around the world, my guess is history will soon be explained simply in terms of Before and After. Before mankind realized vampires were real, and after. After a power- crazed vampire named Dragos freed scores of the most deadly members of the Breed— savage, blood- addicted Rogues— turning the incarcerated monsters loose on an unsuspecting, and obviously unprepared, human public. Even as I write this, I can hardly believe what I’m seeing.

The carnage is unspeakable. The terror unprecedented. It’s hard to look away from the terrible news broadcasts and Internet video pouring into the Order’s temporary compound in Maine.

Every report brings footage of screaming men, women, and children, hysterical crowds stampeding on darkened streets, none of them fast enough to elude the predators in pursuit. Cities glowing bright with flames, vehicles abandoned and smoking in the ruins, gunfire and misery filling the air. Everywhere, there is bloodshed and slaughter.
Lucan and the rest of the warriors of the Order have mobilized for Boston to combat the violence, but they are barely a dozen Breed soldiers against hundreds of Rogues flooding into major cities back into the shadows, the cost in innocent lives could number easily in the thousands. And the damage left in the wake of all this blood- soaked chaos— the mistrust between the humans and the Breed— may never be repaired.

Centuries of secrecy and careful peace, undone in a single night . . .
 
Day 345, A.F.D.

It’s been almost a year since First Dawn. That’s what everyone calls it now— the morning after the Rogue attacks that changed the world forever. First Dawn. What a hopeful, innocuous term for such a horrific moment in time. But the need for hope is understandable. It’s critical, especially when the wounds from that awful night and the uncertain day that followed are still so fresh.

No one knows the need for hope better than the Order. The warriors have been fighting for twelve hard months to win back some sense of calm, some semblance of peace. Dragos is no more. The Rogues he used as his personal weapons of mass destruction have all been destroyed. The months of carnage and terror have ended. But too much hatred and suspicion still festers on both sides. It’s a volatile time, and even the slightest spark of violence could explode into catastrophe.

In two weeks, Lucan is scheduled to speak on behalf of the Breed before all the nations of the world. Publicly, he will call for peace. Privately, he’s warned all of us in the Order that he dreads man and Breed may instead find themselves swept into war . . .
 
August 4, 10 A.F.D.

Sometimes it feels as if there’s been a hundred years of spilled blood and lives during the decade that’s passed since First Dawn. The wars continue. Violence escalates around the world. Anarchy reigns in many major cities, spawning criminal activity from bands of rebels and other militants in addition to the relentless killing on both sides of the conflict.

Every day, the Order’s headquarters in D.C. receives sobering reports from the leaders of its district command centers now situated around the world. The war grows worse. Blame for the bloodshed is slung from both directions, deepening the unrest and adding fuel to an already raging fi re. Our hope for peace between man and Breed has never seemed further out of reach.

And if this is the state of things ten years into this conflict, I am afraid to guess at what that could mean for the future . . .

1

Humans.

The night was thick with them.

They choked the dark sidewalks and intersections of Boston’s old North End, overflowed from the open doorways of dance clubs, sim-­lounges, and cocktail bars. Strolling, loitering, conversing, they filled the near-­midnight streets with too many voices, too many bodies shuffling and sweating in the unseasonable heat of the early June evening.

And damned too little space to avoid the anxious sidelong looks—­those countless quick, darting glances from people pretending they hadn’t noticed, and weren’t the least bit terrified, of the four members of the Order who now strode through the middle of the city’s former restricted sector.

Mira, the lone female of the squad of off-­duty warriors, scanned the crowd of Homo sapiens civilians with a hard eye. Too bad she and her companions were wearing street clothes and discreetly concealed weapons. She’d have preferred combat gear and an arsenal of heavy firearms. Give the good citizens of Boston a real excuse to stare in mortal terror.

“Twenty years we’ve been outed to mankind, and most of them still gape at us like we’ve come to collect their carotids,” said one of the three Breed males walking alongside her.

Mira shot him a wry look. “Feeding curfew goes into effect at midnight, so don’t expect to see the welcome wagon down here. Besides, fear is a good thing, Bal. Especially when it comes to dealing with their kind.”

Balthazar, a giant wall of olive-­skinned thick muscle and ruthless strength, met her gaze with a grim understanding in his hawkish golden eyes. The dark-­haired vampire had been with the Order for a long time, coming on board nearly two decades ago, during the dark, early years following First Dawn, the day the humans learned they were not, in fact, the ultimate predator on the planet.

They hadn’t accepted that truth easily. Nor peacefully.

Many lives were lost on both sides in the time that followed. Many long years of death and bloodshed, grief and mistrust. Even now, the truce between the humans and the Breed was tentative. While the governing heads of both global nations—­man and vampire—­attempted to broker lasting peace for the good of all, private hatreds and suspicions still festered in each camp. The war between mankind and Breed still waged on, but it had gone underground, undeclared and unsanctioned but nonetheless lethal.

A cold ache filled Mira’s chest at the thought of all the pain and suffering she’d witnessed in the years between her childhood under the protection of the Order, through the rigorous training and combat experience that had shaped her into the warrior she was now. She tried to sweep the ache aside, put it behind her, but it was hard to do. Tonight of all nights, it was next to impossible to shut out the hurt.

And the part of this war that was personal, as intimate as anything in her life could be, now gave her voice a raw, biting edge. “Let the humans be afraid. Maybe if they worry more about losing their throats, they’ll be less inclined to tolerate the radicals among them who would like to see all of the Breed reduced to ashes.”

From behind her, another of her teammates gave a low purr of a chuckle. “You ever consider a career in public relations, Captain?” She threw a one-­fingered salute over her shoulder and kept walking, her long blond braid thumping like a tail against her leather-­clad backside. Webb’s laugh deepened. “Right. Didn’t think so.”

If anyone was suited for diplomatic assignment, it was Julian Webb. Adonis handsome, affable, polished, and utterly devastating when he turned on the charm. That Webb was a product of a cultured upbringing among the Breed’s privileged elite went without saying. Not that he ever had. His background—­along with his reasons for joining the Order—­was a secret he’d shared only with Lucan Thorne, and the Order’s founding elder wasn’t telling.

There were times Mira wondered if that’s why Lucan had personally assigned Webb to her team last year—­to keep a close eye on her for him and the Council and to ensure the Order’s mission objectives were being met without any . . . issues. Since her humiliating censure for insubordination by the Council eighteen months ago, it wouldn’t surprise Mira to learn that Lucan had entrusted Webb to smooth out any potential rough patches in her leadership of the unit. But she hadn’t worked her ass off, trained to the brink of killing herself to earn her place with the Order, only to throw it away.

It was highly unusual—­all but unheard of, in fact—­for a female to come through the ranks with the Order and be awarded a place as captain of a warrior team. Her pride swelled to think on that, even now. She’d lived to prove herself capable, worthy. She’d pushed herself ruthlessly to earn the respect of the Order’s elders and the other warriors she’d trained with—­respect she’d eventually won through blood, sweat, and stubborn determination.

Mira wasn’t Breed. She didn’t have their preternatural speed or strength. She didn’t have their immortality either, something she, as a Breedmate—­the female offspring of a Homo sapiens mother and a father of as-­yet undetermined genetic origins—­could obtain only through the mated exchange of a blood bond with one of the Breed. Without that bond being activated, Mira and those other rare females born Breedmates would age, and, ultimately die, the same as mortals.

At twenty-­nine and unmated, she was already beginning to feel the physical and mental fallout of her taxing career choice. The wound she’d been carrying in her heart for these past eight years probably didn’t help either. And her “conduct unbecoming” reprimand a year and a half ago was likely more than enough excuse for Lucan to want to reassign her to desk duty. But he hadn’t yet, and she’d be damned if she gave him further cause to consider it.

“Storm’s coming,” murmured the third member of her team from beside her. Torin wasn’t talking about the weather, Mira knew. Like a lion taking stock of new surroundings, the big vampire tipped his burnished blond head up toward the cloudless night sky and drew in a deep breath. A pair of braids woven with tiny glass seed beads framed razor-­sharp cheekbones and finely chiseled features, an unconventional, exotic look for someone as expertly lethal as Torin, one that hinted at his sojourner past. The glittering plaits swayed against the rest of his thick, shoulder-­length mane as he exhaled and swiveled his intense gaze toward Mira. “Bad night to be down here. Something dark in the air.”

    The best of the series yet!

    ABOUT THE BOOK: Twenty years after the terror of First Dawn—when mankind learned that vampires lived secretly among them—the threat of violence reigns as the two species struggle to coexist. The only group preserving the fragile harmony is the Order, an elite cadre of Breed warriors dedicated to protecting humans and vampires alike. And in this precarious world of torn loyalties and shattered trust, Mira, a fiery squad captain, finds that every fight bears an intensely personal cost.

    Raised among the Order, Mira has always believed in the warrior’s code of swift—and even lethal—justice. But the one thing she desires more than the Order’s hard-won acceptance is Kellan Archer, a sexy but troubled Breed fighter. In love with him since childhood, Mira once broke through his tough exterior during an unexpected night of rapture, but the next day he mysteriously disappeared, never to return.

    Kellan didn’t think he would ever see Mira again—or have to confront the truth of why he left. After abandoning the Order years ago, he now leads a band of human rebels intent on carrying out their own vigilante rule of law. Yet a high-profile kidnapping assignment brings him face-to-face with the past he sought to avoid, and the striking woman he has tried desperately to forget. And as tensions mount and the risk of bloodshed grows, Kellan and Mira must take sides—between the competing missions that dominate their lives, and the electrifying passion that claims their hearts.

    REVIEW: Oh…my…God! I have read every single book in this series and I do have to say, this one is by far my favorite.

    While I was a bit apprehensive about seeing Mira as a grown woman, seeing in the last book she was still a little girl, I do think Ms. Adrian did a phenominal job in explaining the jump in time. The building of feelings between these characters was very believable and the angst behind why they weren’t together was top notch.

    The plot kept you engaged and the ending about tore my heart in half until Ms. Adrian managed to make it all better. I really don’t think I can praise this book enough, so instead I’ll summarize the entire thing with a few choice words. Edge of Dawn is an engaging and raw masterpiece that will have you both on the edge of your seat while reading and flaming the heat of desire from your face as you go.

    Ms. Adrian has done it again and if I could I’d give six stars for a FANTASTIC read.

    Bitter Sweet!

    For readers of the Midnight Breed series, this is going to be bitter-sweet!

    For readers of the Midnight Breed Series, this will be a bitter-sweet read! Time has marched on! Although placed twenty years after the Breed's 'outting' to the public, it picks up with the same attitude and force! I do think its necessary to have the series under your belt before reading this book!

    For the record, I LOVED it! It was great to see what happens to the younger breed generation. I DO like how half the book was NOT relegated to explaining the past over and over. The short history lines will bring it all back to Breed fans!

    I knew this book would not dissapoint! Lara is one of my favorite authors and this is one of my favorite series. My heart broke for Mira and I fell in love with Kellan. We get introduced to the next generation of warriors and breedmates, and I am so excited to see what is next, but don't worry, you still get your healthy dose of the first generation breeds and their breedmates.

    Eternal Loveas all

    Kellan and Mira's love, which began in childhood, survives even death. In doing so becomes stronger as they confront the many challenges facing the Order. That isn't to say reconnecting wasn't without its struggles, but it was all worth it in the end. Kellan and Mira's love says anything is possible.
    It was nice catching up with the original members. Can't wait to see what happens with their offspring. The adventure continues with new enemies to fight and new love to be discovered.

    Was unable to put this down. Read whole thing in 3 hours. The twists i didn't see coming. A truly touching story of how love can conquer all even when it seems fate won't. Will be going back to re-read this again for sure. Mira and Kellan's story should not be missed. Cannot wait for the next Breed novel!

    Lara Adrian transports her Midnight Breed series to 20 years int

    Lara Adrian transports her Midnight Breed series to 20 years into the future after First Dawn. Tensions are high among the humans and the vampires. The Order's leader, Lucan, is trying to balance the prickly relationship but soon discovers that there are other forces inside and outside the Order working against them and these forces are trying to make the vampires out to be the bad guys.

    Edge of Dawn focuses on the breed warrior Kellan and his breedmate, Mira. Kellan was supposedly killed eight years before and Mira has felt empty ever since. He was her best friend and only lover and it was all taken away from her in a ball of fire. Only revenge keeps her motivated and fighting for the Order. Then one day during a routine “babysitting” mission, Mira discovers a life shattering secret, Kellan is still alive. What is worse, he is the leader for the rebels. Kellan has lived with major regret this entire time but after what he saw in Mira’s eyes that night eight years before, he figured he had no choice.

    Adrian takes her readers on an emotional roller coaster. Kellan thinks that disappearing was the way to protect Mira only to discover that he has been wrong all along. There is no way to avoid your destiny and his involves facing the Order and paying for what he has done. As Kellan and Mira try to figure out who the actual bad guys are; they also discover that they can no longer deny their love for each other.

    This series definitely got a new makeover and the storyline is refreshed. I was unable to put the book down once I started. The ending reveals where Adrian is going with the series and I for one want to be first in line for this ride.

    4.5 Stars
    ~Reviewed by FRANCESCA & posted at Under the Covers Book Blog

    “Lara Adrian is a master at her craft! … This story has the perfect mix of interwoven threads that guarantee another amazing 10 books to come!” ~Under the Covers

    Lara Adrian is a master at her craft! She has taken a series that we all know and love and breathed new life into it. Not to say all her previous books in the series weren’t awesome, but as the story arc came to a close with DARKER AFTER MIDNIGHT we were left wondering….”Now what?”

    EDGE OF DAWN starts twenty years after the events of DARKER AFTER MIDNIGHT. The humans know about the Breeds, there’s been war, now there’s somewhat peace and stability. This peace is a fragile idea though, and regulated by a Council with members of both kinds.

    Our beloved Mira is now an Enforcer in one of the Order teams. She’s suffered for many years the death of her one true love and childhood crush, Kellan Archer. She’s hunted the rebel groups responsible for his death with passion. She’s hardened her heart. Gone is the sweet girl we first fell in love.

    A mission gone wrong quickly puts Mira in the path of the new and maybe not so improved Kellan. He is not dead and actually leads the human rebels against his own kind. Mira comes to him as a prisoner but that turns into an alliance as they both can’t hide the feelings that have always been there. After years of being apart, this is the one opportunity neither of them will be able to refuse.

    But why are you reading what I have to say about the story? You should be reading it! This is one of the best Midnight Breeds books yet. It’s a fresh start for the series, introducing a completely new enemy the Order and the Breeds have to face. The rules of the game have changed by changing their world and the people around them. Job extremely well done to Ms. Adrian.

    However, it’s not all about erasing the past and starting fresh. We still have all our favorite Breeds there. They’re still loving strong and growing their families. Most of them have little ones and not so little ones. So look for cameos from some of your favorites.

    EDGE OF DAWN will keep you on the edge of your seat while reading all the twists and turns that Lara Adrian has in store for you. The romance between Kellan and Mira was almost perfect. Kellan is all grown up and completely alpha male. A male that takes what is his but still respects, and loves. A male of honor. Mira on the other hand is kick ass, but she’s not 100% of the kick ass Mira I was expecting.

    This series now can go places. Big places, many places. The new cast the author introduces has me very excited for quite a few new books I see in the horizon and two characters in particular. This story has the perfect mix of interwoven threads that guarantee another amazing 10 books to come!

    Favorite Quotes:

    “If I could keep you with me, hold you forever, I would.”

    “I belong to you, Kellan. There will never be another for me. Not even if I can’t be with you. Not even if you’re gone.”

    “Ever since then, since the very beginning, you’ve stayed with me. You’ve always have my back.”
    “I always will,” she replied. Her voice was quiet, but her eyes were resolute. “When you love someone, that’s what you do.”

    “He had her love. She would always have his heart.”

    This is probably the best book in this series. Well written/det

    This is probably the best book in this series. Well written/detailed and contains more emotion than others within the series. My only quam about Adrian's series is that it mimicks J R Ward's-Black Dagger Brotherhood. The stories/characters are very much alike. Anyway, it is a great read and I expect we'll see more and it may begin with Nathan's character...One more thing: It has been difficult for me to have an emotional bound with these characters. This latest book, was the first in this series that I found a true connection..don't know why, other than the wriiter never allows you to get the full connection. J R Ward's BDB series has ALWAYS offered the connection with true stay power.

    Awesome

    I absolutely loved this book, possibly even more than all the others. I was afraid it might seem like a completely different series since it starts out 20 years later, but Lara makes the transition seamless. We see alot of our favorite warriers of the Order (especially Lucan), and its great to see their children all grown up. The story is interesting and the twists near the end have me salivating for the next book!

    KELLAN AND MIRA

    I was a little lost when I first started reading this. I thought I had missed a book. So it did take some time getting into it. (After checking the series order several time) . I am so glad I read this book. What a beautiful story with Kellan and Mira. Their love lasted. This book was a flurry of different emotions and i loved every minute of it. I can not wait for the next story.

    Absolutely Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lara never fails to bring i

    Absolutely Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Lara never fails to bring it like she means it. I love the way she keeps "The Order" evolving, with new blood always coming into play. The Midnight Breed Series just keeps on getting better and better with so much more potential for more books. Keep it going Lara, can't wait to read what's next.

    Good Book

    Like the book, but needed more insight into what happened prior to this book being written.

    Great Book

    I really like reading Lara Adeian's (the Order). I have all of them on my Nook. I would recommend reading reading The Order books first. It shows that all vampires aren't the monsters we think they are.
