He's arrogant, domineering, and... To. Die. For.
Hunter stirs Serena’s temper and her lust despite their differences. Soon he’s doing the unthinkable breaking the rules he’s lived by, going against the government to keep Serena safe. But are the aliens and the government the biggest threats to Serena’s life...or is it Hunter?
Prepare to have everything you thought you knew about the Lux universe completely thrown on its axis. From the moment of the big reveal in Obsidian, very clear lines of good and bad were drawn. But this is JLA, and we should've known it would never be that simple...
Hunter is drool- and swoon-worthy, leather-clad, bad-ass specimen of man. He's also an Arum. Who just happens to work for the DOD. No big deal. He is everything you could ever want in a bad boy: arrogant, dangerous, beautiful, snarky... The list goes on. But, of course, he's got a protective side that will leave you a puddle of girly goo.
Which brings us to Serena, the lucky object of his affections. She's a wonderfully sassy heroine who doesn't take Hunter's crap while taking everything that's happened to her in stride. A lesser lady would have been fetal and rocking, but instead she keeps going, working to make her friend's sacrifice mean something. While I tend to not be overly-critical of female protags like some (something I find completely obnoxious and rant about on the regular), Serena was still a great character.
The chemistry between Hunter and Serena is intense and crazy hot. And I do mean HOT. This is a book not to be read in any situation where the possibility of blushing would be inopportune. Desptie the steaminess, their relationship also had a give and take that was fun to read and had you rooting for them pretty quickly. Because, really, who's not a sucker for the bad boy finding his weakness? Certainly not this girl.
And there are questions. So many questions. Who are the real bad guys? What do the Arum really want? And what about the Luxen? And just how far is the DOD willing to go to maintain control of all of it?
Obsession is a thrilling, mad-sexy adventure that will leave you begging for more!
And there's a Daemon cameo! It made me squeal. A lot. :)
