I think Kaiden's thought about Anna completely reflects my feeling about this extra...the perfect combination of sweet and salty. It's always great to feel like you're getting to know a character better. Especially when he's confirming what you hoped...that he's even more wonderful than he lets on. I love reading extras for books that I've enjoyed and am so glad that Ms. Higgins has decided to give us a quick peak into Kai's thoughts. After reading this I know that it's not possible to love him more...or is it? Where is book 2?!?! :) 
 Merged review: 
 Being inside Kaiden's head is fascinating. I'm glad the author has given us the opportunity to see some of the story from Kai's POV. But it makes me hope that book 3 (yes, I'm already demanding a 3rd book)is told in Kai's voice. Wouldn't it be great?!? Ya...it would! :) 
 Merged review: 
 The best part about this book was its unique take on Nephilim...or maybe it was Kaidan Rowe...or maybe it was the fact that it captured me from the beginning. Well, whatever it was, I really enjoyed it and the world that the author created. We've all read countless stories where Nephilim, the children of fallen angels, are the good guys... where they try to rid the world of evil. But, what if this is not the truth? What if Nephilim are actually tasked with being bad influences on the unsuspecting people around them? This is the world that Anna discovers she's a part of. And the role she is expected to play in this world shakes her to her very core. 
 Anna is a good girl and that seems to be a point of criticism for many people. I agree that perhaps in the beginning she is too far into goodie two shoes territory but if you read carefully, you will see glimpses of her dark side throughout the book. I believe that the author is setting up the character for a bit more darkness in the next installment. Some people say they can't connect with her character but, being a good girl myself (*glares at all of you*...am so!), I didn't have too much difficulty with it. Plus, I loved the juxtaposition of Anna and Kai, the bad-boy drummer with an English accent and a smoldering dark side. I think the author did a great job of showing that no matter which side you embrace, dark or light, the other side still resides within you waiting to peek out occasionally! Oh, and did I mention that Kai is the son of the Duke of Lust...ya, I know...just imagine the possibilities!! 
 All the secondary characters in the book were great as well. I loved Kopano most, even though I feel like I know so little about him. He's a great mystery that I hope gets more airtime in the next book. Anna's father is also a very interesting character. He's someone you think you understand and who may just surprise you. In this book, each character has a role to play to help move the story along. There are no "best friends" who are there simply to fill up space...everyone has a purpose for existing. I like that! 
 Oh, and I must share two more unique things about this book. First, there was no insta-love...the characters weren't head over heals for each other by page 5...yay!! This is so rare these days in YA that I was taken aback by it at first. What a great move by the author because it makes the second unique thing...the sexual tension...that much more delicious!! The back and forth, the verbal sparring, Anna's desire to both punch and kiss Kai at the same time and, ultimately, the undeniable chemistry, make this book a great read! 
 There's still lots of dark and light to be explored, lots of adventure to be had, and hopefully lots of Kai to swoon over. I can't wait to see how this all unfolds in book 2!
