Lydia Susi and Daniel Joseph’s story continues in the Lair of the Wolven series from #1 New York Times bestselling author J.R. Ward.

For Lydia Susi, there is no sweet sorrow in saying goodbye to the man she loves. As a wolven hiding among humans, she’s used to being alone—until destiny gives her the kind of love she never dared to dream about. But after a sudden devastating diagnosis, grief is the only thing she sees in her future.

As an operative for a clandestine arm of the United States government, Daniel Joseph always expected to die an early death. He just assumed it would be out in the field—not in a laboratory hospital bed. With his time running out, he refuses a potentially lifesaving treatment to focus on making sure that Lydia finds her wolven clan.

Following an attack on the lab’s compound, Daniel fears his former boss is coming after the two of them. Marshaling his strength, he must call on all of his training to protect his love…even if it means her moving on without him.

J. R. Ward

Some writers create worlds; J. R. Ward builds empires of shadow and desire, where immortal warriors fight for love as fiercely as they battle their enemies. Best known for her Black Dagger Brotherhood series, Ward has transformed paranormal romance into something more—a pulse-pounding blend of dark fantasy, sizzling passion, and deeply human struggles, all wrapped in her unmistakable, razor-sharp prose.

Born Jessica Rowley Pell Bird, Ward was drawn to storytelling from an early age, her imagination fueled by gothic literature, sweeping epics, and the kind of brooding, tormented heroes that now dominate her books. Though she originally pursued a career in law, the call of fiction was irresistible. It wasn’t long before she abandoned legal briefs for manuscripts, pouring her love of complex characters and high-stakes drama into every page.

The Black Dagger Brotherhood series, which began with Dark Lover in 2005, didn’t just find an audience—it ignited a fandom. Readers were immediately drawn to her world of powerful yet wounded vampire warriors, each haunted by their past and bound by an unbreakable brotherhood. With its blend of raw emotion, high-octane action, and scorching romance, the series redefined the genre, influencing countless authors and setting a new standard for paranormal storytelling.

Beyond vampires, Ward has explored a spectrum of dark and addictive narratives, from the gritty Bourbon Kings trilogy to her compelling spin-off, the Black Dagger Legacy. Each book crackles with her signature intensity, where love is always hard-won and danger lurks at every turn. Her work has earned a place on The New York Times bestseller list multiple times, a testament to her ability to craft stories that sink deep into readers' souls.

Ward, who writes with a near-religious discipline, often describes her creative process as an obsession. “I don’t create these stories; they take over,” she has admitted in interviews. This relentless drive is evident in the depth of her world-building and the intensity of her characters—every flaw, every scar, every whispered vow feels lived-in, as if her warriors and heroines are more than fiction; they are legend.

Despite the darkness in her books, there is always light—love that endures against impossible odds, brotherhood stronger than blood, and the promise that even the most broken can find redemption. With each novel, Ward continues to prove that romance can be just as thrilling, just as harrowing, and just as unforgettable as the greatest of epics.

For those who crave stories where passion is as dangerous as the battles fought, where loyalty is a force stronger than fate, and where love demands everything—J. R. Ward remains the undisputed queen of the genre.
