(Nephilim Rising #1)
J. Lynn aka Jennifer L. Armentrout
Release: October 16, 2012
Goodreads Amazon
Between the pissed off creatures that want demon-hunter Lily Marks dead and the fallen angel who just… wants her, Lily is about ready to trade in forever for a comfy job in a cubicle farm.
Mortal enemies, the fact that Lily and Julian are civil to one another is enough to have her thrown out of the Sanctuary. Even she can build a laundry list of why getting close to him is career suicide, but she can’t shake her not-so angelic stalker or how he brings her dangerously close to ecstasy.
As if Lily already didn’t have enough problems, the hits just keep coming. Blindsided when a traitor is discovered working from within the Sanctuary, Lily is shocked to find he's determined to get her kicked out. Her relationship with Julian provides the perfect fuel for suspicion, and she quickly finds herself being hunted by well, everyone. Her only hope is to discover the real traitor before she loses everything—and she'll need Julian's help. That is, if Julian is really there to help her … or destroy her.
Yeah, being a Nephilim isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be.
I admit, I am NOT in love with this cover. But I have pretty much decided to read anything Jennifer L. Armentrout writes so I am THRILLED to read an adult urban fantasy by her!!! I read an excerpt on her blog that told me her knack for steamy love-hate relationships is going to transfer to UF well. I am already in love with Julian!
You can read the excerpt HERE
