Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins


Okay, so last Saturday I finished reading Sweet Evil, a teen book by Wendy Higgins.  I would really recommend this book, particularly for those who like the young adult paranormal romance.  This book starts with the birth of the main character, Anna Whitt, who is born in a covenant.  She is the child of a fallen angel (demon) and a guardian angel, who dies in child birth.  When her father is arrested moments after her birth, she is left in the care of a human, Patti, who does not tell her about her heritage until she is in her teens.  She meets Kaidan Rowe, the son of the demon Duke of Lust.  She travels with him across the country to meet her father in prison and to meet the woman who helped her mother give birth.  On the way there, Anna learns much about the Nephilim, children of fallen angels, and begins to fall in love with Kaidan.

I enjoyed this book immensely.  Yes, there is still the guy that basically runs away from the girl that loves him, like in Twilight.  However, in this book it is kind of not for the girl’s safety, but rather for the boy’s safety.  Kaidan fears his father’s finding out about him liking one girl, so he insults Anna and leaves her.  Still, the book is definitely a good one.  It is unique and gives you a different idea of the angels versus demons situation.

The next book, Sweet Peril, comes out this year.  I think in April.  The series will be a trilogy.
