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.

Are you guys wondering how good this book is? It's simply fantastic and amazing. Love it, love it, love it! Jennifer L. Armentrout is so good at writing, the queen of romance she is. She knows how much sexual tension to write and give us a tease or a scare. Simply Beautiful.
“Beautiful face. Beautiful body. Horrible attitude. It was the holy trinity of hot boys.”
Right, Do I need to mention the fact that Daemon is perfect? Like seriously? He's A+ material. Did I just say that?.... Awkward. Anyways, this is a story told from Katy's perspective, meaning, we get to read and experience everything she is feeling. She loves reading(Omgosh!) and she's also a book blogger(that's cool). Yea, sure, she's feisty at times, but I love that about her, she's a loyal friend and someone who won't back down just because she's scared or intimidated.
"I won't hurt
you, Kat." His tone was softer, but still laced with fury as he tried
to control me without doing any real damage. "I could never hurt you."
Pause. When Katy first meets Daemon(vice-versa), was it insta-love? No. It's not like Shiver. But with Daemon's good looks, how can Katy resist such a person? I mean, she didn't love him yet, she just thought he was hot. The writing style is amazing, Jennifer Armentrout knows just the right amount of details to write to make us feel antsy in our pants. You can visualize the scenes well, especially when Daemon is half-naked. Sorry, had to point that out.
“If she was mine, I'd cherish every inch of her. And I wanted to. Now”
Also, everyone says(well, maybe not everyone, but many/few...whatever)that this is like Twilight. Do I agree? No. Not a single tiny bit. I mean, except for the truck accident/car accident thingy, that's practically the only thing I remember that both have in common. But aliens and vampires? Aliens for the win! And yea, twilight vampire sparkle, but these aliens, they light up like a dang disco ball. So all you Twilight haters, there's not many similarities between the two books, the writing style is very different! And to all you Twilight lovers, read it and you'll get a totally different experience than from reading Twilight.
