The Jackal, Volume 1 by J.R. Ward
4.0
SUMMARY:
The location of the glymera’s notorious prison camp was lost after the raids. When a freak accident provides Nyx clues to where her sister may still be doing time, she becomes determined to find the secret subterranean labyrinth. Embarking on a journey under the earth, she learns a terrible truth and meets a male who changes everything, forever. The Jackal has been in the camp for so long he cannot recall anything of the freedom he once knew. Trapped by circumstances out of his control, he helps Nyx because he cannot help himself. After she discovers what happened to her sister, getting her back out becomes a deadly mission for them both.
REVIEW:
The Jackal is the first book the BDB Prison Camp series where we meet Jackal and Nyx. The main storyline is the love story of Jackal and Nyx with a sub-storyline of the parentage between Rhage of the BDB and Jackal. There was a lot to take in with the flashbacks and the present day but I was hooked after first few chapters. The moment that Nyx had met Jackal was an interesting encounter as they were not expecting to meet each other in the Prison Camp but they were fated to be mates. It was an intense moment when Nyx found out that the commander of the Prison Camp was the sister she had been looking for but was really guilty of her crimes.
The beautiful moment that Jackal finds out his son is alive and that Rhage is his half-brother had me smiling. Jackal and Nyx seem like two people that wouldn't fall in love but they did because they compliment each other so well. Neither of them were looking for a mate especially in a Prison Camp but it was meant to be especially when Janelle set in motion the release of her son who Posie saves after they accidentally hit him with their car which then that leads Nyx to meet Jackal. Now onto the next book in the BDB Prison Camp series!
