If you are a fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood and have not yet read this story, it is an absolute Must Read.  The story was previously published inThe Black Dagger Brotherhood: An Insider's Guide, so if you don't do e-readers it's still available to be read.  Or, if you do have the Insider's Guide you already have this story and don't need to repurchase.As can be told by the product description it gives more detail about Zsadist and Bella--the main characters from the third novelLover Awakened (Black Dagger Brotherhood, Book 3)If you have not yet read any of the BDB series, this is NOT the place to start, you should really start withDark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood, Book 1).  Following the way many paranormal romance series are published, each title in the series features a main character who happens to find his/her fated love.  With a lot of angst and hot/detailed nookie involved to make it interesting.  That said, this series is fabulous in that aspect--JR Ward does a great job with her world building and each story continues an overall plot arc.  Each tale is also good at keeping tabs on favorites from other books.  Because there is a lot of story arc going on it is pretty important to keep going in order.This novella was not integral to the story told in Lover Awakened, but clearly more Z/B was needed.  This is a wonderful, prolonged, epilog in a manner of speaking.  Truly a wonderful read and I hope she does more like this to keep us up to date with the other characters.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (both this and the whole series!)JTG
