My goal for this review is to make you desperately want to read the book without giving anything even potentially spoilerish about the actual plot away. This book was fantastic, but it's something that is best experienced for yourself. I suspected after reading the prequel novella, Bitter Sweet Love, that the Dark Elements series was going to become one of my new favorites. After reading White Hot Kiss, I know this to be true.
The characters in this novel are superb. Layla is a strong, kickass female, the best type of female lead. Zayne, her best friend and the guy she's had a crush on forever, was hot and protective and, for the most part, had Layla's best interests in mind throughout the book. Roth, the super swoony demon with a softer side, finished up this triangle in a great way. Yes, there's a love triangle. But it's believable and, after meeting both of these amazing men, I can't blame Layla for being confused.
White Hot Kiss is Jennifer L. Armentrout at her best. The storyline is unique (I say again, GARGOYLES!). The characters are well-developed and complex. The world-building was tremendous. I felt like I was living there with the characters. It was witty at times, heartfelt at others and there was more than enough action to keep the interest of those who need to have things happening all the time. I finished it in one sitting because I literally could not put it down until I found out what happened. The ending gutted me and I need more of this series immediately, if not sooner.
The only complaint I had with this book is that Jas and Dez from Bitter Sweet Love were nowhere to be found. I loved them. I wanted them to make an appearance in this book. Fingers crossed they'll be in the next one...

"See, I was raised in Hell. You could say I'm socially awkward."
