Sweet Peril (The Sweet Trilogy #2)
by
Wendy Higgins (Goodreads Author)
Anna Whitt, the daughter of a guardian angel and a demon, promised herself she’d never do the work of her father—polluting souls. She’d been naive to make such a vow. She’d been naive about a lot of things.
Haunted by demon whisperers, Anna does whatever she can to survive, even if it means embracing her dark side and earning an unwanted reputation as her school’s party gi...more

FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!
Call on a battalion of firefighters because I think this book just set my whole being on fire!

Here in our country we are currently experiencing an epic case of heat wave, but dammit, it wasn't the thing that got me sweating an entire ocean!
Seriously, THIS. BOOK. IS. HOTTER. THAN. THE. SUMMER. SUN.

And I think I just died of heat stroke and went straight up to heaven, because that's the only reason I can think of me feeling this kind of extreme elation!

Yes, three stars and you'll know why. I didn't feel like anything really happened or maybe it's just me but seeing Anna again was really refreshing. She's changed but she's still like the Anna we met in Sweet Evil.
Review is under construction.
Edit 11/6/12
IT HAS A COVER!
Anna looks so ..so much like a bad girl. Look at her face and I never imagined her wearing black. Kaidan has a innocent look going on ...oh the feels. THE FEELS.

After the big kaboosh that was Sweet Evil, you expect Sweet Peril to be even a bigger kaboosh, or at least not fall prey to Second Book Syndrome. Luckily, Sweet Peril did all of those things.

I was amazed by writing, captivated by story and mesmerized by characters. I LOVED IT! This book is about love and hatred, hope and despair, sins and humanity. Sweet Peril is much more than just ordinary paranormal story. Without exaggerating I can say that this series is definitely the best one when it comes to fallen angels (or angels in general) stories!

'"I need you to be serious."
His blue eyes scorched me. "Oh, I've never been more serious." He leaned his face down to mine, and I wrenched my head to the side.

His lips skimmed my neck. "I've no clue what you mean."
Oh, his voice.

We have unfinished business, Kai."

This book should never be a consideration, just a definite yes, yes, and YES.

Give The Sweet Evil trilogy a chance. The first book did not disappoint and imagine just how freaking unbelievable this one is going to be!?

Yeah, I know! I'm rooting for Wendy Higgins and all my favourite characters here :) Get it, girl!

Calling this book perfect is an understatement. Review to come ...

THAT WAS

I LOVED IT!!! I love the way Wendy Higgins writes. When I read her books I am so into the book, I have no idea what is happening around me. I feel like I am in the book along with the other characters.
Another reason I love Wendy Higgins as a writer is because I feel the connection between the characters. I feel the love between Anna and Kaidan. It's like I can feel what Kopano is feeling towards Anna. I feel the protectiveness that Duke Belial has towards Anna.
I'm not very good with w...more

As I sit here and think of what to say about this book there are many words that comes to mind. Like Awesome, amazing, heart breaking, and incredible. Oh and did I say AWESOME!! It feels like I have been on this journey right along with Anna and Kaidan. I have fallen head over heels in love with all these characters. I can't wait for the final book in this trilogy. These books have been quite a ride!
This book goes beyond 5 stars...it's Treasure!!!

The author has a magical way of keeping you interested and intrigued; her storytelling just sparkles...it's mesmerizing!! Oh my, the characters are Unforgettable and will keep you spellbound! I LOVED every minute of it!! *cries for more*
Wendy Higgins has out did herself once more *applauds*
I'm SO looking forward to the next installment.

This is more like 3.5 stars.
Okay, so this book is good but the fact I'm taking off 1.5 stars is, in my opininon that this could've been better. Yes, lame justification, I know.
There were parts that made me want to give it a straight 5, but others which sported overt drama that was too much of a cliche for my taste.
The blatant misgivings, harangues and happenings and the love triangle didn't help the cause.
But it was an adventurous ride packed with adrenaline ( and pheromones ) nonetheless.

I'm officially obsessed with this series! That's not an exaggeration. Usually sequels fail to deliver, but Sweet Peril was just as intense, emotional, and sexy as its predecessor. Seriously, my favorite paranormal romance series ever. Let's dive into why it tops my list.

Anna is still that sweet Southern girl from the first book, even though its clear she's been working and isn't as innocent as she once was. But gosh, I love her! She's adorable, and strong, and make...more

Wow... just wow, my heart is still pounding from this. Miss Higgins had done it again!
Tn tension is slightly upped in this installment.. there's alot of drama and high stakes as Anna and Kope travel to recruit the other Neph. You can taste the fear and hope in everyone, as they try to live their lives but try to see light in the dark.
My heart broke for Kope, Anna, and Kai quite a few times... Kope genuinely cares for Anna but we all know her heart belongs to Kaidan.

“Ready to s-snuggle?" he asked Kaidan, a slight clatter in his voice. Only Blake could joke on a night like this and get away with it.
Kaidan shook his head and undressed down to his boxers, too, the tension finally shedding away from his frame. "I swear, mate. If I feel something poke me in the back. . ."
Blake's laugh was dry. "I'm pretty sure my junk froze off, man, so don't worry.”
