This is most certainly a great series for this reader.  This book rather caught me off guard in more ways than one and managed to 'grow me' as a reader.I loved how the romance grew between Len and Tasha.  I already loved Len so it had to be a special woman to catch him.  Tasha; well, she grew on me a bit slow.  She's a very independent woman who has definite ideas about what her life is about and what she's capable of.  Enter Len and those ideas fall apart slowly...... I adored how Len changed his whole way of thinking and wanted just one woman in his bed - that woman being Tasha.  Took Tasha a bit longer to figure out that Len was all she needed, and wanted in her bed.Now to the hard part of this review.......What happened in this book was a result of some poor intel and a lack of reading 'signs'.  In my eyes the Night Hordes are god-like men of honor who put their beliefs and brotherhood above all else.  During a particular wretched scene in this book each man involved proved his dedication, honor, strength, and lack of fear.  It's all I could do to keep reading.......How it ends-up is unbearable.  What the men endured is beyond hell.  They went in for retribution and came out with bitter defeat and a loss like no other; their honor ground beneath the feet of a demon named Santaveria.  The loss is something they'll never get over nor be able to replace (not talking about the injuries so cruelly inflected upon each man - which was heinous).This reader could barely read what came after this horrible occurrence.  But read I did.  I owed it to what has turned out to be one of my favorite MC club series.  I owed it the characters because I had to know and feel what they were going through.  It was painful to read.  I cannot imagine how hard it was for SUSAN FANETTI to write and I both congratulate her and send my sympathy because she felt the pain more than any reader could.  Her characters took her down a very dark road and she wrote their path.  Takes a strong writer to not go for the easy way out and in this whole series - so far - there has been no easy way out for any character.What I'm left with (besides a broken heart) is the hope that The Night Hoards MC, will find the way to get their honor back.  Somehow they have to win back their town.  Evil is afoot and the Hoards must take it slowly and strike surely.  Anything else.....this reader won't think that far.Revenge backfired but I do believe what Isaac now has in mind is the way to plan their attack.  I'm also hoping each man (especially Isaac) can get back their 'mojo' - the honor robbed from them.  They must get themselves freed of the leeches that now eat away at the very core of their lives.I'm very much looking forward to the next/last book in this series and I'm sad it'll be the last book.  I'm hoping our dear authoress will be writing more series - maybe another MC?  One can hope........Thank you.
