Product Description:
She has tempted many men… but never found her equal.

Until now.

Though she has lived for centuries, Anya, goddess of anarchy, has never known pleasure. Until Lucien, the incarnation of death—a warrior eternally doomed to take souls to the hereafter. He draws her like no other. And Anya will risk anything to have him.

But when the merciless Lord of the Underworld is ordered by the gods to claim Anya herself, their uncontrollable attraction becomes an anguished pursuit. Now they must defeat the unconquerable forces that control them, before their thirst for one another demands a sacrifice of love beyond imagining.…

- Darkest Kiss by Gena Showalter
The second installation of Gena Showalter's Lords of the Underworld Series was much better than the first of the series (in my humble opinion). It could have to do with the fact that the characters were a tad more believable or it could have been the fact that all the backstory setup was already accomplished.

I had a problem with Violence (Maddox) becoming anwhere reasonably tempered in the first book but found Death (Lucien) to be spot-on what I was expecting. Lucien is cold, shut-off from emotion and others in an effort to keep his own demon perfectly under his iron control.

And then there's Anya, minor goddess of Anarchy and a more perfect foil for Lucien's staidness couldn't be found. She is snarky and silly and goes after what she wants without regard to anyone. In their first meeting she tempts him in front of his brothers to lose control and almost suceeds. She lies and thieves ... Read More

- Hate the heroine, love the hero
What heinous crime did poor, sexy Lucien commit to get saddled with this chick? Anya is annoying in the extreme and completely unconvincing as an ancient goddess. Some readers may enjoy her lollypop-sucking, name-calling, shoplifting, slang-talking ways, but I don't.

- If You Like a Dominate Female
Firstly, I love this series to death! The Lords of the Underworld series is amazing and I've fallen in love with all of the characters.

Now, the Darkest Kiss my least favorite of the three because:

1) Sounds horrid and shallow of me to say this, but the main character, Lucien, Keeper of Death, is supposed to be an ugly warrior, with scars covering his face and body. This put me off from the get-go. I found myself flipping back to the book cover while reading, trying to convince myself that he actually looked like that. =[

2) I thought there wasn't enough intimacy between the two main characters and I didn't like that the goddess pursued him the whole time and kind of made him look weak compared to her. She was the ballsy one.

Besides those two things, the book was a good and I would read it again for sure. 3 or 4 chapters of the book are about Paris (I don't want to give ... Read More

- Darkest Kisss - you will want
Read in conjunction with Darkest Night. One of Gena Showalters best series. Each one is better than the last.
