Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout
Release Date: October 21, 2014
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Genre: young adult paranormal romance
Status: book 2 of The Dark Elements series
Summary:
Every touch has its price.
Layla Shaw is trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered
life—no easy task for a seventeen-year-old who’s pretty sure things can’t get
worse. Her impossibly gorgeous best friend, Zayne, is forever off-limits thanks
to the mysterious powers of her soul-stealing kiss. The Warden clan that has
always protected her is suddenly keeping dangerous secrets. And she can barely
think about Roth, the wickedly hot demon prince who understood her in ways no
one else could.
But sometimes rock bottom is only the beginning. Because
suddenly Layla’s powers begin to evolve, and she’s offered a tantalizing taste
of what has always been forbidden. Then, when she least expects it,
Roth returns, bringing news that could change her world forever. She’s finally
getting what she always wanted, but with hell literally breaking loose and the
body count adding up, the price may be higher than Layla is willing to pay…

I probably needed to get used to the whiplash mood swings.
It wasn’t until after dinner that I decided to scrub a day’s worth of gunk off myself.Gingerly, I peeled the bandage off, happy to find that the cut in my arm was healing as expected. I didn’t need to cover it anymore. The arm was still tender, but the Warden blood in me was quickly undoing the damage from the iron.
After changing into fresh pj’s, like a total hermit, I padded over to my desk, where I’d left my cell phone. It had been on silent all day and when I tapped the screen, I wasn’t surprised to see a slew of texts from Stacey.
Where r u?
R u skipping, u ho?
A minute later: Your locker misses u. Guess u sick with the herp?
Oh my God. I laughed out loud, grinning as I thumbed through her texts.
Our bio sub is still hot. U r missing this.
Bio is lonely.
My boobs miss u. How weird is that?
That was notably weird and yet not surprising.
If I get my cell taken from me, it’s ur fault.
Holy shit, Layla, where r u?!?
Air punched out of my lungs as I read the next text and the several following them.
U have no idea who just walked into bio!!!
Roth is here!
Holy Canola oil, why aren’t u here to witness this?
Ok. He says he had mono. Srlsy? Do people still get mono? And who in the duck was he kissing? A second later—Duck? I didn’t mean duck. That’s SO not what I meant, autocorrect.
Another text had come in about fifteen minutes after the last one. He asked where u were. I told him u joined a cult. I laughed. He didn’t.
Finally, the last text was to call her if I wasn’t dead.
“What in the Hell?” I tossed my cell onto the bed, mouth hanging open.

Layla's story starts with a White Hot Kiss!
Pub Date: February 25, 2014
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Genre: young adult paranormal (gargoyles & demons!) romance
Summary: One kiss could be the last.
Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses.
Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever.
Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul.
But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world.

Pub Date: December 1, 2013
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
Genre: young adult paranormal (gargoyles & demons!) romance
Summary: Dez wasn't just
Jasmine's crush. A gargoyle Warden like Jas, he helped her come to terms
with her destiny—fending off demons and maintaining balance between
good and evil. He was her everything...right until the moment he
disappeared without a trace. It didn't help that Jas's father had just
announced that she and Dez would one day be mated. Hard not to take that
personally.
And now he's back, three years older, ten times hotter, ready to pick up exactly where they left off. But Jas isn't taking that risk again. Dez has seven days to meet all her conditions and earn back her trust. Seven days filled with terrifying danger and sweet temptation. Seven days to win her heart—or shatter it all over again...
