Bad boy Kaidan Rowe has never wanted for anything—money, popularity, musical talent…hot girls—but seducing them is part of his duty as a Nephilim, slave to the demon Dukes. As the son of the Duke of Lust, Kaidan has learned his father’s ways, becoming a master of passion, a manipulator of chemistry. Disobeying his father would mean certain death. Thankfully for Kaidan, he’s good at his job. And he enjoys it.

Until he meets Anna Whitt—sweet, smart, feisty, and inexplicably good—the one girl seemingly immune to his charms. The daughter of a guardian angel and a fallen one, she has a certain power over him, one that makes him wish for more than he could ever deserve.

Determined to save all the Neph from their dark lives as the influencers of sin, Anna joins forces with Kaidan to overcome the demons’ oppressive ways. In the light of her affections, Kaidan must undergo his toughest test of all, a battle of the heart.

Sensual and swoon worthy, this companion volume to the acclaimed Sweet Evil series from New York Times bestselling author Wendy Higgins, told from the perspective of the irresistibly sexy and mysterious Kaidan Rowe, gives readers revealing insights into his struggle, his intense connection to Anna, and most of all, the true emotions that drive him.



Teaser...


In two days I'll fly to Georgia to sign estate paperwork and retrieve Father's remains, which are going straight down the toilet at the dodgiest petrol station I can find.  (Page 403)


And because that one is only one sentence and I NEVER do just one sentence, here's another.


I am a master of the sneak attack from behind.  I prowl as she's stirring or baking or rinsing, and then I pounce.  I'm all over her and she's screaming, "Kai--!" and trying to get back to doing whatever thing she's doing at that moment.
But I'm quite persuasive.  (Page 474)


Oh yes, I so loved this book.  Did you miss my review and the giveaway going on for this series?  Find it HERE.

AND, this one is AVAILABLE today from HarperTeen.




Friends vs. Family (The Ghost Bird, #3)Sang Sorenson is forced to suffer through another of her mother’s extreme punishments. It almost kills her. The Academy boys vow it will be the last. They're determined to keep Sang safe, especially from her own family.

Their solution: complete invasion of her life.

Kota, Luke, Silas, Nathan, Victor, Gabriel and North do everything within their power to show Sang what true loyalty means. It takes more than blood to make a family and they want Sang in theirs.

In this third book of The Academy series Sang experiences a taste of freedom and what it’s like to truly be cared for...to be wanted. Sang learns a bit more about the boys’ broken families and the boys discover more than they could ever have bargained for about Sang’s. The Academy was the answer to their problems. Could it be hers?

Sang’s actions will force her mother to reveal a startling truth. A truth that will change Sang’s life and the boys’ lives in unpredictable ways. Forever.

The Academy, Allegiance

I sensed his face close to mine and I held my breath, unsure of what he was doing. His tongue met my skin and he licked from my jaw to my cheek. I choked out a squeal, poking him in the stomach out of surprise. He lurched forward, laughing. 
Luke popped his head up between the beam and the wall of the platform. "What's so funny?" 
I tilted the flashlight around to hold it like a candle between us, lighting up the area with a gentle glow. "Gabriel," I whispered, "he..." 
"Is a fucking handsome guy. He already knows, Trouble." Gabriel smirked.

GIGGLES. I love this group! :)
