Summary: I don't do dangerous. Smart, über-careful, ordinary Samantha-that's me. But I just couldn't pass up a surprise kiss from my number-one unattainable crush. A kiss that did something to me...something strange. Now I feel hungry all the time, but not for food. It's like part of me is missing-and I don't know if I can get it back.
Then there's Bishop. At first I thought he was just a street kid, but the secrets he's keeping are as intense as his unearthly blue eyes. If he's what I think he is, he may be the only one who can help me. But something terrifying is closing in, and the one chance Bishop and I have to stop it means losing everything I ever wanted and embracing the darkness inside me....
Review: Dark Kiss a different read for me. I loved that angels and demons had been sent to Earth to work together but something else entirely different was missing. And that, my friends, was emotion.
Yes, there is plenty of emotion that the characters felt but
I really didn't care at all for the characters. Their action elicited no
reaction or even a smile or frown for me. Usually it doesn't take much to make me happy
but I would have liked to see characters that were more fleshed out and real. Kraven,
a demon, was the only character that I felt was very well written. The rest
were so-so.
The plot and mythology was engaging, though. Dark Kiss is another quick read that
goes by really fast. There's lots of interesting action scenes that definitely
kept me satisfied with the book.
I might read the sequel to Dark Kiss but I just wish this one could have been better.
