This book was the first one i have ever won as part of the goodreads giveaways, it was a roller coaster ride. It was a breath of fresh air to read something else aside from Vamps a weres. It was thrilling and the suspense did not allow me to put the book down. overall it was a very good and entertaining book.

This story is based around a demon, Temptation, and his job is to do exactly what his name states. He roams earth, trying to tempt humans into sin. If a human gives in to the sin, their soul is marked for the Collector, another demon. But Temptation has grown jaded about his job, and forces sin on humans instead of letting them choose. An angel of war visits him, and informs him that he has to right his wrongs or the ultimate war will wage, bring an end to everything, including Temptation. Why w More...

After reading the plot description for "Temptation," I was anxious to read the book. Unfortunately, the read was extremely disappointing because the storyline was predictable, boring, and without "soul." Temptation made me realize that with so many authors self publishing it will be more challenging to discern which books are worth purchasing/reading. We can no longer just rely on book retailers story descriptions. That is why Goodreads is so important.

As the book discription goes "Times are tough for the demon, Temptation", TEMPTATION,#1 the first in a new series by acclaimed author Tina deCoux is nothing short of stunning. One's typical view of demons are utterly turned upside down as we meet "Temptation" - a demon with a new found conscience!!! Ms. deCoux' plot and characters are so original and appealing that,once finished, the reader yearns for TEMPTATION #2- a must read.

**More like 2.5 stars**

When I first read description detailing this book, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it... and then I did and things quickly went downhill from there. Unfortunately, while the storyline had so much potential, the execution fell hopelessly flat for me.

The sentence structure was poor and choppy, making for a difficult read. The story was rushed in areas... areas I felt were critical spots in the plot that needed a slower pace or greater, lengthier More...

I love thrillers and this book didn't disappoint ......I was hooked from the very beginning! Once I reached the halfway point, I couldn't put it down. The struggle between good and evil mixed with the paranormal makes for a must-read.

Really liked this one! I really liked Tina's other books, but I think this one is really the genre of stories I really go for. I think this was a great story! I am looking forward to her next installment!

Interesting story for sure but I have to admit I was expecting a bit more of a "horror" element to the book. But instead, you feel sympathy for Temptation when he's in his human form (Sam). I can understand his frustration with humans and not really having much to do in the way of tempting them to sin; that just seems to be the way of the world now. Sunny was ov More...

These are the things you need to know about this book: First the only interesting in this book is the storyline. Temptation becames human, falls for a mortal girl and sves the girl and the world.Second is o poorly written that after the first chapter you will want to hit your head on the wall. I only read it becuse I had nothing to read while trying to tan. Avoid it for the love of God.....

PS. It is not a series based on temptation....

I won this first read on GR. I like the writing style but the plot is a bit predictable. However I did enjoy reading it and it kept me entertained.
