Read for the nostalgia of phrases like “crap on a cracker.”
Parts of this were really good. Other parts just didnt do it for me so 3 stars.
I love the gargoyles as paranormal creature things and thought the paranormal aspects were done well.
I didn't love Layla's friend Stacy and her you're obviously interested in that guy and I'm going to hit on him 'cause he's hot kind of attitude. I just found her character annoying in general though.
For the whole love triangle thing, Zayne needs more for me he was just okay. I did love a lot of things about Roth he makes for an interesting love interest and demon. But it isn't a poorly done triangle.
Layla is an alright MC. She follows the typical oh so special format. Being a rare half-breed makes her this way not what she does or how she acts.
Overall, its pretty average but good enough to continue.

Aww, man, I really wanted to love this one! Well, you know, considering this is my first Jennifer L. Armentrout book.
I don’t know. I thought it was okay, but other than that, this one didn’t really stick out to me.
I mean, the concept of demons and gargoyles—yeah, gargoyles—was really intriguing, but other than that, this book couldn’t really keep me flipping the pages fast enough. I mean, I finished it in one day, but when I finished it, I didn’t really care how it ended.
And oh my God, I could not stop laughing at this because it was so ridiculous.
One thing I was told was how kick-butt Layla is. The only time she kicks butt is like in the very ending, where I was expecting nothing anymore because I was purely annoyed. Another thing, she’s so typical “I’m not pretty” I didn’t hate it, but I was honestly just bored. Oh, and the typical best friend who’s only in the story to add spice to the main character’s love life. Ugh.
Yeah, I mean, I was expecting a lot more than I ended up getting from this book. But, eh, there’s another one, and these books are really fast and quick reads. I mean, even if it gets really weird at times with the whole “love triangle.” *fumes*
Does it matter, guys?! Oh, and obviously Layla should be with Roth, because I like him. He actually listens and doesn’t act impulsively. So, he won’t get everyone killed.
Overall, White Hot Kiss, is an okay first book. I was expecting more, but it wasn’t bad. It was okay, even if I found myself rolling my eyes a lot in the book, but whatever. It’s a quick story, easy world to understand, and easy to read. If you’re a fan of Jennifer L. Armentrout, then go pick this up! :D

Unlike other Wardens, I couldn’t shed human skin and kick major behind, but hair-pulling flipped my bitch switch like no one’s business.
And oh my God, I could not stop laughing at this because it was so ridiculous.
I looked up, meeting Roth’s stunned gaze. “What? I can throw a punch.”

Zayne’s grip relaxed. “Shut up.”
Roth came to his feet fluidly. “I don’t think I like your tone.”
“And I don’t like your face,” Zayne returned.

I love all books by JLA, this series is another favorite of mine, I certainly will be looking forward for more books. This one had me from page one and didn't let me go till the end, and even after I still want more and more.

Another fun page turner by Jennifer L. Armentrout. I enjoyed reading about main characters Layla and Roth, both were charming and witty and had a lot of fun back and forth dialogue moments - similar to the interactions between Katy and Daemon in the Lux series. I felt the world of WHK was a bit more developed than that of the Lux series in that it made a bit more sense and didn't require a total suspension of disbelief. All in all this was a fun, quick read that I would highly recommend for fans of the Lux series.
I put off reading what ended up being another good book just because I was weary about the whole demon and warden storyline. I didn't think I'd like anything about demons or gargoyles. But this was so witty and lovely that I loved it! I actually teared up at one point... And I'm so no ashamed. I actually love Roth, and I thought I'd only like 'stony' but I ended up not liking him as much in the end. And Bambi? Coolest. Thing. Ever. And I hate snakes.
