Review: Sweet Evil (The Sweet Trilogy #1) By: Wendy Higgins



Title: Sweet Evil (The Sweet Trilogy #1)
Author: Wendy Higgins
Published: May 1st, 2012
My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars!
Goodreads Summary:

Embrace the Forbidden

What if there were teens whose lives literally depended on being bad influences?

This is the reality for sons and daughters of fallen angels.

Tenderhearted Southern girl Anna Whitt was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She's aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but Anna, the ultimate good girl, has always had the advantage of her angel side to balance the darkness within. It isn't until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage and her willpower is put to the test. He's the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna. The title fits the story perfectly and I loved it.

Forced to face her destiny, will Anna embrace her halo or her horns?

My Thoughts: 

I loved this book so much! Wendy Higgin's take on angels was fresh, new, and completely entertaining. As we all know angels are a big thing in YA and I have read many of the books that are out there, and for once it wasn't the same as the others. I had such a hard time putting down the book while reading,  I was swooning over Kaiden and so curious about what was going to happen next.

Anna is adopted by a wonderful woman who loves her so much and they have such a good relationship. Anna is a good girl, who always does the right thing and pushes the people around her to do the right thing.  Everything changes when Anna meets Kaiden Rowe, a drummer for a popular band and a British swoony boy. Kaiden recognizes her for who she is a Nephilim, just like him. The most awesome part in my opinion was that their jobs were to be bad influences on humans depending on what sin their dad's were in charge of. Anna's heritage is a little bit more complicated and had me so curious. 

I really enjoyed Anna's character, she was a good person and it really radiated through the book, she loved her friends and her family and would do anything to make them happy. She held herself well most of the time and she was very compassionate, the reason that I could relate to her so much is she let her emotions show regularly and I am the same way, I tend to ugly cry a lot especially when reading, watching movies and TV. I can't explain to you why Anna was this way but, I loved it.
Kaiden Rowe, isn't that just a sexy name. He was drawn to Anna in so many ways, she made him want to be a different person and I loved the person that he was when he was around Anna. He was also very torn between wanting to be different from who he was but, also do what was expected of him as his father's son. He is definitely one of my favorite book boyfriends. 

Overall, Sweet Evil is amazing. It is not your average angel book and you haven't read another one like it before. Sweet Peril comes out in April and I already have it on pre-order so I can begin reading it the day it comes out, I can't wait to have me some more Kaiden. I highly recommend this book!!! Read it now!
