Genre: Young Adult (Paranormal Romance)

Date Published:  September 8, 2015
Publisher: HarperTeen

Bad boy Kaidan Rowe has never wanted for anything—money, popularity, musical talent…hot girls—but seducing them is part of his duty as a Nephilim, slave to the demon Dukes. As the son of the Duke of Lust, Kaidan has learned his father’s ways, becoming a master of passion, a manipulator of chemistry. Disobeying his father would mean certain death. Thankfully for Kaidan, he’s good at his job. And he enjoys it. 

Until he meets Anna Whitt—sweet, smart, feisty, and inexplicably good—the one girl seemingly immune to his charms. The daughter of a guardian angel and a fallen one, she has a certain power over him, one that makes him wish for more than he could ever deserve. 

Determined to save all the Neph from their dark lives as the influencers of sin, Anna joins forces with Kaidan to overcome the demons’ oppressive ways. In the light of her affections, Kaidan must undergo his toughest test of all, a battle of the heart.

Sensual and swoon worthy, this companion volume to the acclaimed Sweet Evil series from New York Times bestselling author Wendy Higgins, told from the perspective of the irresistibly sexy and mysterious Kaidan Rowe, gives readers revealing insights into his struggle, his intense connection to Anna, and most of all, the true emotions that drive him.

Author Note:

Sweet Temptation will encompass the entire trilogy in a condensed version, beginning with Kai's life before he met Anna, and taking readers through the epilogue of Sweet Reckoning. Sweet Temptation is a companion novel, not meant to be a stand alone story. It will definitely be a richer experience for those who have read the original trilogy.

Sweet Temptation is the fourth book in the Sweet Series by Wendy Higgins. This book was a condensed version of the Trilogy seen through Kai's eyes. I've been looking forward to reading this book since I first heard about it. I didn't know how much reading his point of view would really mean for the trilogy as a whole until I read it though. It's completely necessary. This is already one of my favorite series, and getting Kai's viewpoint and now knowing what he was doing when Anna wasn't around added so much depth to this story. His thoughts and internal monologues are hilarious. I just love him that much more now. I enjoyed reading the final showdown through his eyes.. even more than Anna's point of view. It was definitely something special. If you're a fan of the Sweet trilogy, Sweet Temptation is a must read.

I've always had a heart for teens, and writing YA stories gives me the opportunity to delve into the ambiguities of those pivotal years before adulthood.
