About this eBook

From Jennifer L. Armentrout, author of the Covenant series, comes an unforgettable prequel novella to the New York Times bestselling Lux series.

The last thing Dawson Black expected was Bethany Williams. As a Luxen, an alien life form on Earth, human girls are...well, fun. But since the Luxen have to keep their true identities a secret, falling for one would be insane. Dangerous. Tempting. Undeniable.

Bethany can't deny the immediate connection between her and Dawson. And even though boys aren't a complication she wants, she can't stay away from him. Still, whenever they lock eyes, she's drawn in. Captivated. Lured. Loved.

Dawson is keeping a secret that will change her existence...and put her life in jeopardy. But even he can't stop risking everything for one human girl. Or from a fate that is as unavoidable as love itself.

Ratings and reviews

Definitely a big relief to read this after ONYX because I was bawling my eyes out on the last two chapters of this book. I swear this must have been the series I've read the fastest because each chapter keeps you wanting more!

Very good addition to the series. I'd recomend reading it after all the other books, because at times it feels a little too much like obsydian.
