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


Sweet Evil (The Sweet Trilogy #1)
by Wendy Higgins

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


WOOO! This book was so amazing, I really enjoyed it!

I really like angel stories, and this is probably my favorite one I've read! I liked Anna and her innocence. She would feel guilty for telling just a tiny lie, I thought it was cute. lol
I wished she would have used her magic more, maybe used it for good? I don't know I just would have like to see more of it. But really I liked Anna, since the last three books I read, I couldn't stand the MC, Anna was a breath of fresh air for me. She wasn't annoying, whiny, selfish.. ect. She had this innocent character that wasn't created to make guys like her, 'cause authors seems to think guys like that doe-eyed innocence. But Anna was the real deal, she really cared for others.

Kaidan! I liked him, he was the son of lust? Or something like that. So he was basically a man whore lol. He felt a pull towards sex, like Anna felt towards alcohol and drugs. Kaidan was the 'bad boy' and Anna was the 'good girl' and usually I don't care for that, but here I think it worked, I felt like they balanced each other out.
So much chemistry between these two! I don't like insta-love, only because it doesn't feel real, I liked it in this book though, they had a lot of chemistry together, and I just wanted them to just have sex all ready. :)

"He was smoking hot. As in H-O-T-T, hott. I’d never understood until that moment why girls insisted on adding an extra t. This guy was extra-t-worthy."

"Good gracious, he was sexy—a word that had not existed in my personal vocabulary until that moment. This guy was sexy like it was his job or something."

I like that whole seven deadly sins concept, I really enjoyed reading about these characters. Kopano, Jay two of my other favorites. Which can I say how much I LOVED the fact that Jay and Anna were guy/girl and they were JUST friends! YES, it's true. Unbelievable, right? It can happen. :)
The ending wasn't a cliff-hanger much, It wasn't an ending where I felt like I NEEDED the next book now,although I do WANT it now. xD

RECOMMEND! 4 out of 5 stars. Second book where are you??

    This book sits on my shelf, waiting for me to read it already. I am glad that I chose this review to read because it reminded me of how curious I am about this story. The seven deadly sins concept sounds like it could be pretty interesting. And I like an innocent, sweet, kind character. I feel like there just aren't enough of them anymore. Thanks for the great review!
