randiroo 's review for:

The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter

3.0

---

Let me start by saying that this is NOT my typical read. However, it’s one of my bestie’s favorite series (she’s a paranormal romance addict!), so I decided to give it a try. Normally when I go for adult books, I go for urban fantasy; I like more story and less sexy times. I need a strong plot and strong characters. Sexual tension is nice, but if there’s no storyline, I get bored. Anyway, I gave this book three stars because although I didn’t love it, it does set up an intriguing story line for the series. Immortals who are half gods and half demons? Interesting concept. The Darkest Night revolves around Ashlyn (a girl who, wherever she is, can hear all of the conversations that ever took place in that physical location) and Maddox (who is possessed by the demon Violence), and I honestly wasn’t that excited about their story (talk about instalove!), but I find myself wanting to know what happens to the other characters in this book.
