4.30!!

Omg that plot twist.

This is Jennifer's finest book as of yet. Don't come at me because I haven't read blood and ash or lux as of yet but omg this book literally threw the first one out of the water. Loved zayme so much but ik he won't be the love interest since he already has his own series and I don't mind I would love Roth and Layla to get together. Tho their romance had minimal spark this time. Abbott was a bitch respectfully.

I just loved it so much. Did not expect that ending at all!!!!

And Ew I hate this cover.. The alternative has such good vibes

This series is everything!! I have renewed respect for the love triangle. Of course, I have a favorite of the two guys, but I would NOT mind being in Layla’s shoes.

Roth is my sexy tattooed demon daddy and I will be taking no comments on this!

I have been listening to the audiobooks for these and at the end of Chapter 19, the book said to change the disc, which was HILARIOUS to me, seeing as how it was on Libby.

Well. Better than number 1. Writing is still pretty cringey at times but still easy to follow along.

One thing this book does better is the angst and tension. The emotions from the scenes were addicting and powerful and I only wanted more. 

And damn what an ending!

Están siendo unos libros demasiado sin más. Tengo claro que si no fuera por los audiolibros habría abandonado al terminar el primero. Creo que me hubieran gustado más cuando era más adolescente, pero aún así, el problema que he encontrado es que siguen un esquema demasiado predecible y no hay nada que llame mucho más la atención. Le he subido la nota porque los últimos capítulos son más interesantes y pasan más cosas, pero en general tiene un ritmo bastante lento. No sé si terminaré la trilogía, quizá si lo publican en audiolibro me anime, en caso contrario...ya veremos.

Oh god, oh god.. Just don't know where to start with this review....
After finishing White hot Kiss I just wanted to read Stone Cold Touch immediately.
So of course, I did read it right away haha..
Luckily I was not disappointed and this was just as an amazing read as the first book was.

I'm shattered and broken by that ending.. wat a f*cking plottwist that was!

I went from TeamRoth to TeamZayne for like 5 minutes, and I was being TORN apart by these two boys because how could I possibly choose between Zayne when he was being this freaking perfect
and then Roth who is just EVERYTHING!!!!! I mean, come on...
I'd totally go All nuts and be damned to Hell for this guy..

But Hell, how could you not love Zayne either;
“I don’t deserve you.”
“See, that’s where you’re wrong … That’s where you’ve always been wrong. You deserve everything.”

-'Zayne

But after finishing this book I'm reminded again of my 'love at first read'
I had for Roth right away in White hot kiss. And why I, even then, from the first moment I met him had this feeling that he was better for Layla then Zayne would be. My love for Roth; it's burning fiercer than ever now! I just knew deep down that this Demon was all I ever wanted...sigh...

“I love you Layla. Do you hear me? I've loved you since the first moment I heard your voice and I will continue to love you. No matter what. I love you.”
-' Roth

It starts a bit slow, because the focus is being pointed towards the love interests a bit more in this book and because of that the story has a longer build up.
But I liked that, because now we got to discover some more of Layla/Zayne as well.

Ant it just contains everything I loved in the first book as well and maybe even more at some points; it has humor, it's action packed, it's totally romantic, it has sexy stuff which will make you blush like a schoolgirl, a sassy hot demon who literally goes to Hell and back , a beautiful and perfect Warden who finally opens up, a still very interesting main character and a great story line.

It makes you laugh, blushing, crying.
It leaves you heartbroken, shattered and lost..
It gives you everything you could want in a good book.

But because of all those feelings I've got from the first two books
I'm so freaking terrified for 'Every last breath'..

How the Hell is this going to work out without everything falling apart?
*grabs the third book, a box of tissues, my wishlist for my funeral in case I die of overload of feelings after finishing the book and starts reading 'Every last Breath'..*

Not a masterpiece, but it was fun (and engaging) while it lasted.
