Experience the epic love story of OBSIDIAN as told by its hero, Daemon Black…

I knew the moment Katy Swartz moved in next door, there was going to be trouble. Lots of it.

And trouble’s the last thing I need, since I’m not exactly from around here. My people arrived on Earth from Lux, a planet thirteen billion light years away. Plus, if there’s one thing I know, it’s that humans can’t be trusted. We scare them. We can do things they only dream about, and honestly, we make them look weak as hell. ‘Cuz they are.

But Kat is getting to me in ways no one else has, and I can't stop myself from wanting her—or wanting to use my powers to protect her. She makes me weak, and I’m the strongest of our kind, tasked with protecting us all. So this one simple girl…she can mean the end for us. Because the Luxen have an even bigger enemy—the Arum, and I need to stay on my game.

Falling for Katy—a human—won't just place her in danger. It could get us all killed, and that’s one thing I’ll never let happen...

Teaser...

My unwilling fascination with her-- I got it.  She didn't put up with any of my crap.  I was surrounded by people who looked to me to have all the answers, to protect them, to never show fear.  And so I put on a big front and swaggered around like nothing frightened me.  It was exhausting sometimes.  But Kat, she saw right through all my bluster and kept me honest.  And I like that...a lot.  (Page 95)

OMG, this book!  I read it straight through and this happened...

Yep, I read it straight through.  Check out my review HERE.

"We'll face whatever is waiting for us together." 

"Us?" 

I nodded, working on the buttons of her sweater. Some of them were buttoned incorrectly, and I laughed. Only Kat could have trouble putting clothes on correctly and somehow make it sexy. "If there is anything, there is us."

OF COURSE I dove right into this the moment it landed on my kindle. OF COURSE. If anything is true in this world, it is that I am hopelessly in love with and devoted to Daemon Black. Dear goodness, the things he does to my heart.
