Two mortal enemies rule this city – and I belong to them both
I once fawned at the supernatural beings in our city. I marveled at their powers and praised them for saving us from murderers, rapists and arsonists.
Then I met him. The city’s most prominent superhuman. Its favored hero.
He saved my life. And then… then he marked me as his pet and taught me that in St. Anthony, there are no such … Anthony, there are no such things as heroes.
But with his claim, he caught the attention of everything that is dark and twisted in this city. Their eyes are on me now, and one of them will stop at nothing to take what belongs to his enemy.
Especially me.
No human woman can survive two powerful beings using her body as their battleground, but my city is doomed, corruption eating away at its very core. If I want to save it, I’ll have to submit to both the men determined to own me.
Breed me.

For me, “Darkness” hit the bullseye! This series was well-written, and was also hot and sexy, funny and witty, and full of mystery and intrigue. It was pleasantly surprising, to say the least. The plot was interesting and the characters developed well and grew on me. I actually didn’t want the series to end! Can’t wait to read more from this author!

I enjoyed the character work that was done in each book. The story lines were good and had a fairly smooth flow to them. I enjoy being able to read the entire series in one go without having to exit each book to find the next one.

This was a great story! Although it is presented as a collection of different books, it feels like a collection of serials. I don’t think each “book” would do well on its own. However, having the whole thing together is PERFECT. There is action and adventure, angst and love, intrigue and suspense…everything a great story needs. The characters are complex and their personalities come across in their actions, thoughts, and dialogue. I cannot wait to read more stories by Nora Ash.
I loved reading this book a second time. I’m also glad it has all the books in the series as one. Lighting, The Shade and their fierce soulmate didn’t disappoint. Although the heroine’s self-deprecation was kind of annoying and a little too much. Aside from this, I did like the book. As always, it is a pleasure reading books by Nora Ash.

This is one of my fav series of all time. Why? First of all, I was an avid reader of comic books as a child and teenager, so this series being based on supes (not so much superheroes) made it super-juicy, specially since it’s not a common theme even in the fantasy/urban fantasy genre. Second, the h is a plus size woman, which makes her more relatable to me (not every woman can relate to tall, slim and super-model types), and the cherry on top of the cake is there’s not just one MMC but two and the h is the fortunate recipient of both heroes’ attentions. They are the perfect alpha male characters with just the right touch of dominance, hotness and masculinity * gush
This series is a combination of mistery, action, intrigue and smut. I loved the conspiracy sub-plot as much as the romance/erotic part in this series, and they’re fluidly integrated with one another. The world building around the supes’ community is absolutely original, no gamma radiation or dark matter explosions here to explain the origin of the supes…you’ll have to read these books to know more, but if you’re into Urban Fantasy you’ll love this.
There’s not one single boring line in Darkness, the rhythm is dynamic and the hotness of the chemistry between the main characters is volcanic level hot. I have read the complete series at least three or four times already and I keep enjoying it every single time. That’s why I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to dream about a fantasy world where super-alpha hunks take your breath…and your panties away.

tag cloud= Paranormal Romance, Erotic Romance, Sci-fi Romance
*** MY Review ***
***3-1/2 Mature for violence, dubious consent, various abuses of adults and minors, gritty sex scenes, Erotica. Other tags: Fiction-Adult-fantasy, reporters and crime, world domination plot, politics and power, super-powers or magic, enemy-to-lovers, body image, M-f-M, breeding.
This story arch seems to have a high ratio of graphic sex:story-plot scenes with two main protagonists, a sudo-villian, and two main villains plus the rest of the criminal element one would find in a Gotham-like city. Not sure where the sci-fi tag is coming from as there is no mention that the supernaturals are from another planet or using futuristic technology and/or weapons. The romantic bits were nice. Both men love their girl for herself, curves and all, even though she can be just as pushy as they are. Just as she finds both endearing and annoying qualities in her lovers.
This is not a clear cut Super Hero to all vs would be World Dictator Overlords. Both sides see themselves as more mighty than mere humans and they would be right as far as physical strength and some abilities are concerned. Both sides of the supernatural cold war are still prone to ethical and emotional frailties which lead to the climatic confrontation. The aftermath has humans looking for ways to punish all “supes” for the damages caused by the cross fire while still not facing the corruption within the city’s infrastructure that caused the need for third party vigilantes to protect citizens from the human criminals at large. That’s like suing a private security company for property damage after they saved your life from thieves and invading dictators. In other words I was not satisfied by the ending. I wanted a happy ending instead of an okay one. I have not heard if this series will continue in future books but it is the end of this particular cautionary tale story arch. Everyone has their faults, even the good guys.

Good paranormal romance. The story flows well with plenty of action and the characters are well done.
Kathryn is a blogger. A huge opportunity comes to her in the form of a “superhero” stopping an armed robbery as she makes her daily coffee run. He’s not exactly what she expected. The resulting article gets her the boost her blog needed, but it also gets her a lot more. She never expected her comments to draw a target on her neck. Now she’s stuck between two supes. One is a “good guy” acting badly and the other is a “bad guy” acting goodly. Will she be able to get to the truth in all this mess?
Great story with a creative world and well developed characters. I love this series so far and can’t wait to read the next one!
I received an ARC of this book and am leaving my honest opinion.
A good set of shorter stories that were exciting and enjoyable to read. The characters had powers that were surprisingly believable. The characters made these stories fun to read because I liked them. A good set of books.
Enjoyable series about a human woman torn between two men and the chaos and action that ensues. I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.
