The Black Rose #4
Destined for Darkness
Cate Rose, the omnipotent Dark Queen and ruler of Hell is torn. Her only brother, Devin Black, has betrayed her trust and gone behind her back in order to further his own supremacy on Earth. Not content with just being the powerful leader of their secretive dark order, the Crimson Brotherhood, Devin wants more and it seems that he has gone to great lengths to try and obtain it.
While the young demon, and Cate's eldest son's fiancée, Tilly, recovers from yet another near death experience, this time at her leaders powerful hands, Cate has an important decision to make.
But, which future will she decide to bestow on her brother?
Can Cate place her trust in the demon who has abused his position so treasonously? Can she forgive his selfishness and give him the chance to atone by making the ultimate sacrifice? Allowing Devin his much-desired prize of an earthly throne will come at a price, but will Lucifer's eldest son be ready to make a deal with the Devil?
This is the story of the Crimson Brotherhood and its history, significance and the changes they will have to bring about in order to achieve the all-important balance that each and every being in Heaven and Hell are working hard to accomplish.
But, are they all willing to change or can some dark deeds never be undone?
Get ready for the darkest instalment of the Black Rose series!

5 well deserved stars!
This book continues where the last book left off and once again I was sucked into a world of light and dark. This time it focuses on Devin and Serena's children and the crimson brotherhood and introduces new characters.
I had a love/hate relationship with Corey oh how he infuriated me. I loved how Melody gave as good as she got. The story just flowed making you think that you were actually part of that world a world I don't want to leave just yet. The way Laura portrays this is remarkable and I for one cannot wait to read book 5. I was gifted this book for an honest review.

I was kindly gifted this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.
Where do i begin? The 4th installment of the Black Rose series. And, another fabulous read. For me, this book was slow getting off the ground but once it picked up the flow, it was off. Again, i couldn't put it down. Reluctant to even do so to pick my kids up from school. Nothing as been done today as the book just swept me along. This lovely lady sure as hell knows how to write a dammed good book. I really really want more. Another highly recommended read

I loved this book. Learning about the Crimson Brotherhood, their workings and to whom they are most loyal was fascinating. I often forgot I was reading a book. I found myself wishing for certain things to happen. Was great to revisit characters from previous books and link it all together. Some great new characters too with such intricate details.
Another book I just couldn't put down. I am so excited to read book 5 but also disappointed as I know this will be the end of the series....for now.

This is the 4th book in the Black Rose series. I have had some really good reviews so far, and I'm hoping this next instalment hits the spot!
I'd consider this the darkest of the full 5 of the series, there's still plenty of romance and intensity. However in this book you'll find a new set of characters - and how not every dark being learns their lessons! ;-) xxx

Wow, after the crazyess of the last few books, i thought for sure there was nothing else the author could do to shock me, i was so wrong! This new story of the crimson brotherhood and the history is very dark and powerful. The beautiful characters of the other books are all in there, but we finally meet a real, and unrepentant bad guy. I kinda loved him in some ways, though!

This book as the others was great!! Different from the others but stayed true to her writing. New characters were introduced and expanded on some of the other characters in previous books. Cliff hanger at the end. Very excited to read the next book. Another great book Laura Morgan!!!

I was excited to get to read the fourth book in this Black Rose series and, to be honest, I was slightly disappointed and confused at the start because I thought it was about the Dark Queen's brother Devin and the The Crimson Brotherhood. The story came from a different angle to begin with and it wasn't until half way through that it got really interesting and exciting. Overall it was a good read. I really must stop going into these books with expectations lol. I know I should never read the blurb on a book I'm going to read!

Destined for Darkness (Book 4 of the Black Rose series)
This is a dark series and so may have some triggers please take the authors warning seriously.
So after reading the first 3 books I had to dive straight into this one and was happy to find I wasn’t disappointed. This book takes a slightly different path to the others and we learn about the crimson brotherhood. There are new characters as well as the ones we have grown to love which is fantastic as it keeps the series moving forwards while not becoming repetitive.
The writing has flowed so well through the books and this one is no different with clear indications as to what is going on and descriptive language that makes the words just jump off the page and you see the story rather than read it. I can’t even begin to imagine how much research must have gone into these books but it has paid off greatly with readers being able to enjoy such a fantastic story.
Do not be fooled this book with sink its teeth into you and refuse to let you go until it is finished
I rate this story 5 stars

Book 4 in the Black Rose series and they just get better and better!
This is mainly Melody's story and how she becomes part of the darkness!
Melody meets the gorgeous and charming Corey while out and falls head over heels in love with him.... but after discovering who he really is, you realise what a mean cruel bastard he really is and that is probably putting it mildly! But you do kind of fell a pull towards him sometimes then he'd go back to his evilness and you'll hate him again.
Corey will stop at nothing to own Melody and after tricking her into having his child, his family finally decide enough is enough and put a plan together to save Melody and her baby.
I couldn't put this book down and I loved Melody as a character. She is strong and feisty and so full of love you cannot help but like her.
Another fantastically written book by Laura Morgan and I can't wait for book 5.
