The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter
5.0
What A Fantastic Story - I Loved Every Minute!
Ok, so this book/series has been popping up on my recommendations listing, groups and friends' feeds since joining Goodreads. Oh why did I wait so long?!?
I found Ms Showalter's writing style very easy to read; she captivated my imagination with her world building, the complexity of her characters and the balance of violence, humour, passion and romance.
I knew that these demon possessed warriors were men I could get behind when they battled internally with the "evil"; fighting the urges, feeling guilt, regret and shame for their less than angelic actions.
But it wasn't just the alpha warriors that keep me hooked, the female characters are written with plenty of gumption and intelligence.
This book is cliffhanger free (woohoo!) regarding our romantic main couple, however the background story arc is definitely not over and we are left with a myriad of questions and mysteries to solve in the subsequent books as well as other demons to tame. ;-)
