This week my swoon moment is from The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter.
This week my swoon moment is from The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter.
"Arms still banded around her shoulders, he lathered his hands. He set the soap on its perch and began the slow-- really slow-- process of cleaning her from head to toe. His soapy fingers snaked along the soft curve of her hips, on the sweet roundness of her belly. She gave another of those groans, the sound eager and this time just for him. Her head fell back onto his shoulder in open invitation, an action that said, do with me what you will."
It's been a while since I've read an adult paranormal but this book reminded me why I love the genre so much. This book was full of like 10 swoon-worthy men and they all get their own stories. I can't wait to read the rest!
I've only read her young adult books (Alice in Zombieland and the sequel) but I loved those AND I love paranormal romance. So, I should definitely try this out.

This was my first book by her and I really liked it. There are like 10 more in this series so Yay!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read The Alice In Zombieland books, especially after reading this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks! :-) I really liked this book
ReplyDeleteHaha, who doesn't love a hot shower scene? :-)
ReplyDeletehaha, right? I knew I had to use that one for my swoon. It was hilarious that each time one of us got there, we're all like "Oh, shower scene!"
ReplyDeleteOh Yeah, Yay virtual book club! I heart you girls!
ReplyDeleteLOL, read this one! It is super good and this is mild compared to the rest of the scene in the book :-)
ReplyDeleteThat was how I felt too! I was like, "Why haven't I been reading these sooner!" Shower scenes really are the best :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL, yes she does!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I really like paranormal a lot plus swoony, sexy men and smut (I'm classy like that, lol) If you aren't into paranormal though, you may not like this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It had been forever since I read adult paranormal until this one and I was like "What is wrong with me?" LOL
