Book of the Day!

Synopsis:

His powers - Inhuman...

His passion - Beyond immortal... 

All her life, Ashlyn Darrow has been tormented by voices from the past. To end the nightmare, she has come to Budapest seeking help from men rumored to have supernatural abilities, not knowing she'll be swept into the arms of Maddox, their most dangerous member -- a man trapped in a hell of his own.

Neither can resist the instant hunger than calms their torments... and ignites an irresistible passion. But every heated touch and burning kiss will edge them closer to destruction -- and a soul-shattering test of love...

Though they carry an eternal curse, the Lords of the Underworld are irresistibly seductive -- and unimaginably powerful...

Lords of the Underworld series by Gena Showalter

I just realized that I haven't reviewed one of the best series out there. The Lords of the Underworld series. This series pretty much has everything in it. Humans, immortal warriors, angels, harpies, fallen angels, demons, gods, goddesses, and many more. I love Gena Showalter's books. I think she's one of the best authors out there.

The Lords of the Underworld series is about a group of immortal warriors who had made a huge mistake a long time ago. They were jealous because they weren't chosen to guard the Pandora's box that contained the evils of the world. The box was opened, and in the middle of the madness, Maddox killed the one chosen to guard the box. Now the warriors carry the evil inside themselves. Demons such as Pain, Violence, Death, Disease, Disaster, Misery, Doubt, Promiscuity, Defeat, Lies, Secrets, and Wrath. Many more demons were unleashed... and as the series go on, secrets unfold and the warriors will know who holds the other demons.

Their enemies are called the Hunters, and they are supposedly following an Angel. I don't want to give away any spoilers but I'll say that the leaders of their enemy will turn out to be people that they know.

Maddox - Violence
Lucien - Death
Reyes - Pain
Sabin - Doubt
Gideon - Lies
Amun - Secrets
Strider - Defeat
Aeron - Wrath
Torin - Disease
Paris - Promiscuity
Kane - Disaster
Cameo - Misery

I love all the Lords and each of them have great stories. I also love the secondary characters such as the harpies, you'll meet them starting with Sabin's book. I also love one specific minor goddess because she's funny and awesome!

I suggest people read this series because it's really great. The characters are great and there are a lot of things going on and the books just keep you on your toes and keep you wanting more! This is one of my favorite series of all time and once you start reading it you'll understand.

Wicked Nights by Gena Showalter

The angel Zacharel finally gets his own novel in the start of Gena’s new series Angels of Dark.

At first I thought this book wouldn’t be as good as Gena’s series Lords of the Underworld, but it was actually a great read! 

Zacharel is an angel who has not felt any emotions ever since his twin brother, who was the complete opposite of him, was attacked and Zacharel was later forced to kill him. He has been constantly punished for harming humans on his quest to avenge his brother, but now he cannot afford to fail. He’s forced to be the leader of angels like him, angels who are on the verge of getting kicked out of heaven and losing their wings. If he gets kicked out, he will become vulnerable to the demons, and that is not what he wants.

Zacharel then meets Annabelle Miller, the woman who will change his life forever. She was marked by a demon and now every demon seems to be after her. The demon that marked her killed her parents, but she was the only one found at the scene of the crime and no one believed her when she told them the real story. She got sent to a mental institution where she was abused by her doctor and other patients. Zacharel did not want to take Annabelle with him, but he later changes his mind. 

Overall, this book was well written and it was also very entertaining. One can relate to the characters and they are very likeable. I’m not surprised at how good this book was because it was written by Gena Showalter.You won’t regret picking up this book off the shelf!
