Summary

When 17-year-old Katy Swartz moved to West Virginia right before her senior year, she'd pretty much resigned herself to thick accents, dodgy Internet access, and a whole lot of boring, but then she spotted her hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up...until he opened his mouth.

Daemon Black is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. It's hate at first sight, but when a stranger attacks her and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot guy next door? Well, he's an alien.

Turns out that Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities and Katy is caught in the crosshairs. Daemon's touch has lit her up like the Vegas Strip and the only way she's getting out of this alive is by sticking close to him until her alien mojo fades. That is, if she doesn't kill him first.

Critic reviews

"The beginning of Armentrout's new Lux series is a thrilling ride from start to finish. A cross between Roswell and Dawson's Creek, this series is guaranteed to hold your attention and have you begging for more." (Romantic Times)

Good so far

My first YA JLA book. It’s good. There is obviously not much spice because of this but it’s sweet and I’ve bought the next audiobook. Hoping I get more invested as I’ve heard great things.

Alien Superstar

The best start to a new series.
A strong and wilful heroine. Angry Aliens, hot boys.

Awesome with awesome sauce!

I have loved this series since I got back into reading and this was the fist book that I'd read from jennifer l Armentrout and absolutely loved her stories.
This series is still my all time favourite and I go back to it if I'm in a book slump.
I recently saw the books had become available on audible so I've used all the credits I had to get the first 3 books.
The narrator did a brilliant job. The only thing I'll say is she pronounced Daemon as deemon and not as it states in the books it's pronounced daymon. But it didn't worry me as the story is brilliant and I didn't notice it after a while.
Hot aliens next door, bad aliens after them with love and friendship and a bit of butt kicking. Fantastic!
