Dreams of a Dark Warrior (Immortals After Dark, #10)
Kresley Cole
From #1 New York Times bestseller Kresley Cole comes this gripping tale of a battle-maddenend warrior driven by revenge and the Valkyrie temptress who haunts his dreams. He Vowed He'd Come For Her... Murdered before he could wed Regin the Radiant, warlord Aidan the Fierce seeks his beloved through eternity, reborn again and again into new identities, yet with no memory of his past lives. She Awaits His Return... When Regin encounters Declan Chase, a brutal Celtic soldier, she recognizes her proud warlord reincarnated. But Declan takes her captive, intending retribution against all immortals—unaware that he belongs to their world. To Sate A Desire More Powerful Than Death... Yet every reincarnation comes with a price, for Aidan is doomed to die when he remembers his past. To save herself from Declan’s torments, will Regin rekindle memories of the passion they once shared—even if it means once again losing the only man she could ever love?

Yikes, lowest so far in the series
-Declan was just too much - he's evil, he's a happy drug user (which is resolved), he's hurt others, he's manipulative
-Regin was such a cool character from the previous books, she deserved way better!
-In some ways, the 'reincarnation' theme is similar to a second chance trope, which isn't my favorite. Regin is too sympathetic to Declan because of her old feelings toward Aiden, and she forgives Declan too easily
-This definitely needed more grovel--Declan was too much and had done too much bad, not enough time was spent redeeming him or giving him the character growth that I wanted/needed to make him likeable or good enough for Regin
-I did like seeing Thad and also the bits of Lothaire we saw in this book, plus I hope that fae comes back too
