Uh, WoW! What a sequel... October 14, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
When I first read Showalter's Darkest Night, I really enjoyed this new take on paranormal romance. I've mostly been reading vampire romances so... I quite enjoy Greek mythology so I welcomed a story involving old myths with new. And to add hot romances to them, well... makes for a great Girl's Night IN. So I didn't hesitate buying Darkest Kiss, but what I didn't expect was a saucy leading lady paired w/ an unlikely withdrawn man. A combo that turned into a heated page turner for me! I try going in without expectations so books like these can give me awesome surprises. I can't wait to read more about these Men & their follies, the Lords of the Underworld. Bring em on...
Darkly Delicious! September 30, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Lucien was the immortal captain of the guard on Mt. Olympus until he jealously opened Pandora's box and became possessed by the demon of Death. Thousands of years later, scarred on the inside and out he attracts the attention of Anya, Goddess of Anarchy...and Cronus Godking of the Titans.
Anya, determined to live life her way or the highway, gets what she wants. And what she wants is Death, man and demon she can't resist his scarred body and heart. And the fact that Cronus sets him the task of killing her just revs her engine more. She is Anarchy after all.
The two travel the world and explore the ruins of two lost temples of the Gods as they rise from the see. Together they fight Hunters, a Hydra, and each others personal demons - when their not fighting each other in a delectable way. Lucien is a to die for hero- pardon the pun! Anya has oodles of spunk. Aeron the Wrathful demon in the castle basement breaks free and Promiscuity is changed for eternity. A completely delightful read!
Only the first half was good September 24, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
After reading The Darkest Night I ran out and got a copy of the Darkest Kiss. The first half of the book was great and then it seemed as if the story didn't know where to go and the rest of the pages were just written to fill out the book. I'm going to start the 3rd today.
