I wanted to love this one so much, but jeez Gena, why are you making this so hard? To channel my upcoming rant, I will focus only on: the Plot, the Complete Idiocy, the Insta-Insta Love, the Nipples and how Promiscuity is just Rape. The Plot - aka started from the bottom, now we here...still at the bottom.

This takes time away from the authors that they need to polish each book so that it can be at its best. I felt
My Problem that I Know Will Not Actual Bother Everyone: Okay, the main hero is an immortal warrior who is partially controlled by demon of Violence. Yes, Violence, which the heroine, Ashlyn, is dating. He spends the first 50 pages (give or take) chanting kill, murder, slice, hurt, killkillkill to himself. He acknowledges that while he tries to fight the demon, he does fail - on a nearly nightly bases. Now, Im aware that in this genre love conquers all and that relationships and people in romance
(4 Stars)Ooohhh!!! Yummily sexy cover! That was my first reaction. ^_^ Seriously. Love the covers in this series.The Darkest Night, the first book of the Lords of the Underworld series, is my first Gena Showalter book. I really liked it but wasnt completely captured by it.
