Obsidian (Lux, #1)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring...until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is.

When this book was first suggested to me, I never knew it was about aliens, shoot I didn't even know such paranormal romance series existed! And I know all of us, who hear the word 'alien', we think of what we've seen on television, weird shaped heads, very big eyes, UFOs in the sky, and so on and so on. But I never realized that aliens could be quite steamy, and that's what Daemon is, he is all gorgeous!

I absolutely loved this book and managed to finish it in one sitting! Katy is constantly making up excuses for the way that Daemon acts, which I don't blame her because of the way treats her, but their relationship begins to grow and develop. Trust me, you'll have to be a little bit patient with their relationship because I kept saying, why don't they do it already?! That was just one aspect that I loved, Jennifer wasn't in a hurry for all of that to happen. I'm sure I'm not the only one that agrees when I say this, but it's a constant push and pull between Daemon and Katy.
