Review: Obsidian

Title: Obsidian Author: Jennifer L Armentrout Series: Lux series Release Date: May 2012 Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring… until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something… unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don’t kill him first, that is.   So, I'm going to be honest....

Review: Gent

Title: Gent Author: Harloe Rae Blurb: Raven Elliot blasts into town like a wrecking ball—striking and devastating. With a few simple words, my reliable routine crumbles to dust. “Is this seat taken?” I could close my eyes and let her voice wrap around me like a lover’s caress. But this isn’t that type of story. And I’m sure as hell not that kind of man. She hovers in my space, batting her lashes and smiling shyly. The glimmer in her sapphire eyes is a promise of peace. But I’m not falling for it. And Raven doesn't take the hint. What starts as a battle of wills, explodes into a turf war. She stands directly in my path everywhere I turn. No matter how hard I shove, she won’t budge. Raven seems dead set on driving me insane. But I was here first. And I’m not going down easy. After all, no one ever taught me how to treat a lady. Review: I was seriously in love with this cover - and I love a good enemies to lovers romance, so I was definitely eager to...
