Anna Whitt, daughter of a guardian angel and a demon, promised herself she’d never do the work of her father—polluting souls. She’d been naive to make such a claim. She’d been naive about a lot of things. Haunted by demon whisperers, Anna does whatever she can to survive, even if it means embracing her dark side and earning an unwanted reputation as her school’s party girl. Her life has never looked more bleak. And all the while there’s Kaidan Rowe, son of the Duke of Lust, plaguing her heart and mind.

When an unexpected lost message from the angels surfaces, Anna finds herself traveling the globe with Kopano, son of Wrath, in an attempt to gain support of fellow Nephilim and give them hope for the first time. It soon becomes clear that whatever freedoms Anna and the rest of the Neph are hoping to win will not be gained without a fight. Until then, Anna and Kaidan must put aside the issues between them, overcome the steamiest of temptations yet, and face the ultimate question: is loving someone worth risking their life?

Book 3 of The Sweet Trilogy, Sweet Reckoning, is slated for spring/summer 2014.

Gorgeous Right?????? I'm dying to read it even more now!!!

Jaime's Review of Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins

From Goodreads.
What if there were teens whose lives literally depended on being bad influences? This is life for sons and daughters of fallen angels in Sweet Evil.

Tenderhearted Southern girl, Anna Whitt, was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She’s aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but it isn’t until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage, and her will-power is put to the test. He’s the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna.

A cross-country trip forces Anna to face the reality that hope and love are not options for her kind. Forced to face her destiny, will Anna embrace her halo or her horns?

Remember a while back when I said I was over Angel books? I still am but this book is a big, huge, colossal, mind blowing exception to that statement above!  I didn’t just love this book I was so crazy about it that I made everyone I know that had a copy pick it up and start reading! I may have even tweeted a small teaser to draw them in ;)

On to the book I rarely say this but if there was a book world I wanted to live in this would be one of those books and not only that, I’d want to be Anna. I really liked her she is the epitome of “the good girl” but after finding out some shocking things she learns it’s ok to let loose a bit and, she figures how to walk the line between both good and evil. She has such inner strength and conviction I loved that about her. I also loved that she isn’t afraid to stand up for her beliefs and defend herself and her friends even if it means she would be hurt.

Enter the most amazing boy Kaiden Rowe I fell in love with him on page 11(I will post an excerpt from this page below) and I think Anna did too! He’s a drummer, dark hair, smoldering blue eyes, and he has an English accent. He actually reminded me of someone from my past. Kaiden is all of those things and soo much more he’s dangerous but he’s also protective and, he’s really funny he had me smiling ear to ear quite a bit. Not to mention swooning in almost every scene he was in!

The story was amazingly well written and I couldn’t get enough of it I actually took a “me” day to finish it. Now I’m not so happily waiting that long year for the next book. I don’t re-read many books but this one will definitely be one that I do and probably more than once!

So here’s my promised teaser excerpt from page 11 the page where I fell for Kaiden Rowe.

There was an intensity to the way he played, like he was unleashing his passion into the music and nothing else mattered. He was feeling it, lost in it, and he was good. A light sheen of sweat shone on his arms and face, dampening and darkening the hair at his temples.

Never before had I felt such instant physical attraction. The power if it was jarring. I’d noticed when guys had nice features, sure, but I was usually distracted by their emotions.

Now, with the drummer’s absence of an aura, I was able to watch the muscles in his biceps and forearms flex as he slammed the drumsticks down in a whirlwind of precise movement. The beat was intoxicating, bumping each nerve ending inside of me. His whole body moved fluidly, jumping with the force of the beat, his face looked focused and sure.

I looked again at the red starburst on his chest. It was unlike anything I’d ever seen. I doubted he felt lustful at that moment, with his utter concentration on the music. It was weird. The song came to an end with one last crash of the cymbals; then he twirled the drumsticks in his fingers before tucking them under his arm. Jay was cheering, along with the rest of the crowd. I stood in absolute awe.

Ok so enough with the teaser what did you think? I seriously cannot wait for you all to get your hands on a copy of Sweet Evil!!!
