The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter
4.0

I had to re-read this one because it was stuck in my head. It's fasts pace story, where it is third-person point of view of both the main characters. I want to say its a retold story, but it's really not, there is more going on than just the romance. Not only do you have to read them in order but each character is different from his or her characters that makes them stand out per se.
This story focuses on Ashley and Maddox mostly throughout the book there are also other characters point of view that pop up to keep readers on the loop of what is happening. This book was one I was not expecting because it has a supernatural effect this does venture into fairytales and mythology blend in all together. The author's imagination has no bounds and I am excited to re-read her stories. I want to say that it ends with an HEA but there is more to the story than just them, it does continue with others but the story is much more interesting than just romance. Not to down tone the romance but WOW does not even come to describe the scene or what is happening with the characters.
