Bound and Unbound: A paranormal novella duology

The Sinner
by J.R. Ward
About this book
A sinner’s only hope is true love in this passionate new novel in J.R. Ward’s 1 New York Times bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood series.
Syn has kept his side hustle as a mercenary a secret from the Black Dagger Brotherhood. When he takes another hit job, he not only crosses the path of the vampire race’s new enemy, but also that of a half-breed in danger of dying during her transition. Jo Early has no idea what her true nature is, and when a mysterious man appears out of the darkness, she is torn between their erotic connection and the sense that something is very wrong.
Fate anointed Butch O’Neal as the Dhestroyer, the fulfiller of the prophecy that foresees the end of the Omega. As the war with the Lessening Society comes to a head, Butch gets an unexpected ally in Syn. But can he trust the male—or is the warrior with the bad past a deadly complication?
With time running out, Jo gets swept up in the fighting and must join with Syn and the Brotherhood against ultimate evil. In the end, will love true prevail...or was the prophecy wrong all along?

The Sinner was amazingly epic! All the characters. The fight. The passion. The Brothers. The love. It was incredible! Another outstanding story in the Black Dagger Brotherhood world.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 I remember meeting Josephine Early in another Black Dagger Brotherhood book. I am excited to finally know her story and her connection to the Vampire world. Her reluctance to stand down in the face of the unknown makes her one of the most fearless heroines in this power-packed world. Syn is also a male who was introduced in earlier books. He has always been firece and more than a bit scary. Finding out what fuels his rage os quite eye-opening. I absolutely loved watching the...

It has been a few years since I read the last book in the series, but I had no trouble slipping back into the author's writing, world, or the current situation in the series. I liked that there seemed to be fewer main and minor plot threads floating around though it did have a crew of narrators. The Sinner picks up the story of one of the Band of Bastards, Syn, who has a nasty little habit of enjoying killing so he has taken a side gig beyond his duties with the others in the war against the...
