The Darkest Lie (Lords of the Underworld, #6)

by Gena Showalter

Forced to his knees in agony whenever he speaks the truth, Gideon can recognize any lie-until he captures Scarlet, a demon-possessed immortal who claims to be his long-lost wife. He doesn't remember the beautiful female, much less wedding-or bedding-her. But he wants to...almost as much as he wants her. But Scarlet is keeper of Nightmares, too dangerous to roam free. A future with her might mean ultimate ruin. Especially as Gideon's enemies draw closer-and the truth threatens to destroy all he's come to love...

Reviews

I enjoyed this book, although "Gideon Speak" could get annoying at times. I really liked Scarlett. She had a great personality.

Gideon is just priceless! I love that Lord :D it's so funny when he has to lie all the time, and says the opposite of what he really means, it makes for a lot of funny moments in the book.
Scarlett is excellent as well, but poor woman, not even knowing what part of her past is true or is a lie. And even if she loves Gideon, it was hard for her to accept her feelings, as she was so afraid her crazy mom or aunt would hurt him in order to hurt her.
There was a lot of cool information about Strider as well, and I have a feeling the next book might be about him and Haidee (or Ex :P) instead of Paris and Serena.

WOW! this book was intense there was a lot going on, and damn scarlet was a pain in the ass for a long time there, but then things switched and yeah let's just say OH MY WOW! BUT YAY Amun's book is next I am so excited about it.
