I've finished "Deeper than Midnight" the 9th book in her Midnight Breed series by Lara Adrian.
Product Description
DELIVERED FROM THE DARKNESS, A WOMAN FINDS HERSELF PLUNGED INTO A PASSION THAT IS DEEPER THAN MIDNIGHT.
At eighteen, Corinne Bishop was a beautiful, spirited young woman living a life of privilege as the adopted daughter of a wealthy family. Her world changed in an instant when she was stolen away and held prisoner by the malevolent vampire Dragos. After many years of captivity and torment, Corinne is rescued by the Order, a cadre of vampire warriors embroiled in a war against Dragos and his followers. Her innocence taken, Corinne has lost a piece of her heart as well — the one thing that gave her hope during her imprisonment, and the only thing that matters to her now that she is free.
Assigned to safeguard Corinne on her trip home is a formidable golden-eyed Breed male called Hunter. Once Dragos’s most deadly assassin, Hunter now works for the Order, and he’s hell-bent on making Dragos pay for his manifold sins. Bonded to Corinne by their mutual desire, Hunter will have to decide how far he’ll go to end Dragos’s reign of evil — even if carrying out his mission means shattering Corinne’s tender heart.

My Review:
Corrine Bishop is finally freed from captivity by the Order after she was kidnapped and endured torture for eight years by the sadistic and depraved Dragos. Her only wish is to go home and see her very wealthy family and for them to help her find the one thing that means so much to her. Hunter volunteers to take her back home. Hunter was once a lethal assassin of Dragos but won his freedom and joined the Order an elite team of vampires that is determined to save their own kind and destroy Dragos once and for all.
Hunter is different because he was born from Dragos horrible experiments of using breedmates (human women able to breed with vampires) and an Ancient (aliens who mate with human women to create the Breeds). He's been created to be the perfect assassin and not to feel any emotions but you can see he does have feelings around the kid who lives in the compound with them. He's definitely the definition of the strong and silent type.
I really liked how Corinne was even stronger after enduring years of abuse and torture from a sadistic and twisted Dragos. She's determined to find the one thing that matters to her - her son.
I really enjoyed the romance between Hunter and Corinne because he could see past her scars and imperfections and he knew what she went through and he didn't push her. He was very gentle and very patient with her. She taught him how to care and open up to someone.

I have only read the first book in this series. Back then I think there were only about five so I had a chance of catching up, now I'm so far behind. I'm glad to see you are still enjoying the series.
