“I love you Layla. Do you hear me? I've loved you since the first moment I heard your voice and I will continue to love you. No matter what. I love you.”
I don't know about this second one.
I didn't like it comparing it with the first one.
I did expect more.
Just like the first one, I always feel like the story is beating around the bush when trying to expose things we need to know.
Well, Layla did have some badass scene of her fighting. I still was not satisfied.
I feel like this focus on the love triangle on Layla too much then the problem of the situation.
Roth did have things we do not know of him huh, I still need to find out.
Zayne just annoyes me sometimes.
I wish the book spoke more about Layla being half warden and half demon.
Like exploring more of it and see which one she likes.
However I like the plotline, it make sense of how things are happening.
But sometimes I feel like we find out everything really towards the end.
I wish it was more consistent in between the storyline.
Hence Im torn in between giving it a 3.5 or 4.
“Love is a strange creature one thinks one has a grasp on and understanding of, only to discover later that it was only the barest taste of the real thing.”

OMG, this book was just all sorts of tease in a good way! I loved and hated that by the end of this book I didn't have a clear opinion on who she should choose, Zayne or Roth and, man what a good job because i hate love triangles! I just want to live in JLA's mind and see how she comes up with this! It has the right amount of "surprise" and a healthy dose of teen ridden angst up make-out-ish scenes and the right amount of male testosterone thrown around. I cant even summarize this book without giving too much away, but know this, it has a sight cliffhanger but not like the OMG WHAT THE HELL, more like ugh, now Im guessing....I love JLA and Can't wait for the last one

Overall, this book receives five stars, and I’m diving into the next book right away. I needed this series to help me out of a reading funk, and it got me out of it and more.
Standalone or Part of Series: It’s part of the Dark Elements series.
Cliffhanger: Yes.
Trope: Love Triangle
Would I recommend this book? OMG! Yes! If you are a fan of Young Adult Paranormal/Fantasy, then I recommend this series. If you are a fan of Jennifer L. Armentrout and haven’t read this series, then why haven’t you?
P.S. And another thing, can I say that I love that Roth names his familiar’s after Bambi characters? Bambi has always been one of my favorite Disney movies, even if it makes me cry each time I watch it.
