The aliens crash-landed on Earth eleven years ago. And now, sixteen-year-old Victoria Hale feeds them. With her emotions. Victoria is an EVE - an Emotion Vesicle Engraft - and one of few humans who are genetically capable of producing emotions for the Gutters to feed on. She's doing it for the money - her sister Alisa needs a good doctor, and fast. But what she didn't count on was being sent to the world's first desegregated high school for Gutters and humans. She didn't count on the paparazzi, the protestors, or the insane Gutter politics and government secrets. She didn't count on the crimson-eyed Gutter prince with an intriguing heart of cold iron, either. She especially didn't count on murder. But it's counting on her. “I’m sorry,” Shadus’ voice says. My eyes slide over – Shadus is standing right next to me, leaning on the bookshelf. I close my eyes and sigh. “Don’t be. It’s me. Something’s wrong with me. I don’t know how to rea...

I was crossing my fingers the whole time. I want Jack with Isis. I want Jack to help her deal with her self image and I want Isis to heal him from all his pain.  Lately, I haven't read a lot of YA but I think this series works for me because the writer makes them sound more mature. Don't get me wrong they still act as teenagers at times but the dialogue is good. I do want to hug both characters. Their chemistry is...

Disarranged We start Disarranged a few weeks after Arranged ends. Rose is taking a trip to Paris. Grace has invited her and this is the perfect way to relax and maybe forget Leo.  Unfortunately, her relaxation doesn't last too long once she finds out Leo is there with his fiancee  Keira. Leo can't believe it. The woman he loves is in the same city and he wants her. He can't stay away. He knows he should leave her alone because he doesn't want to risk Kiera's wrath but when Rose's life is in danger, he is unable to walk away. I think this book was much better than Arranged. Rose is still naive but she has some fight in her now. She doesn't push Leo away and having Leo's POV helped a lot.  Kiera becomes even more crazy in this one. In the end everything works out as it should. This book is short so you can read it in an afternoon. James is next. "I love you, Rose Jensen. Don't you ever fucking forget that." 4/5 Fangs
