*semi spoiler-free review*

White Hot Kiss is the first book in Jennifer L. Armentrout's series 'The Dark Elements'. And it was phenomenal. 

Let's just start by saying that I was tempted to throw the book across the room when I finished, but I didn't want to ruin the beautifulness of it. The ending totally surprised me, but it really should not have. I should have seen it coming, major time. What happened is something that Armentrout did in a different series, but in a different way. And it again killed my heart. Congrats on THAT achievement.

This book is about a half-demon, half-Warden named Layla. Wardens are gargoyles, essentially, and are the ones tasked with hunting and killing demons. See the problem? Because she's a half-demon, Layla can never kiss any person with a soul (i.e. her fellow Warden and crush, Zayne) or else she'll suck it out. Then a tattooed demon named Roth, aka Astaroth: The Crown Prince of Hell appears. Roth saves Layla from a demon and stuff happens from there They start developing feelings for each other. Feelings. And guess who doesn't have a soul that Layla can suck out? Roth. You know what that means, right? 

Honestly this whole story had me squealing like a little girl. Especially at the semi-romantic scenes between Layla and Roth. So, because of the amazing characters mixed in with that plot twist at the end, I gave this a 5/5 stars. 

Thanks for reading, I'll see you next time!
