Book Review: Arkon by Ava Benton

 

Book Description

Demons aren’t real. Are they?

One sexy demon. One human female. One lethal magic dagger.

She’s broken. He’s on a mission. How did her brokenness derail his mission? Join this sexy demon and the woman who can’t deny the attraction to him on a journey for healing, revenge, and sexy times.

Jasmine’s life flipped upside down a little more than a decade ago since the fateful day she intervened in a scuffle between two men with horns. Horns! Since that day her family’s thought she’s bonkers. In more institutions than she cares to remember, on more prescriptions than a junkie, she’s finally settled into a semblance of normal in the middle of nowhere, running an antique store. Normal. Totally. Until…

Arkon’s been haunted by the memory of the girl who saved his life ages ago, but he’s had more important things on his mind. Staying alive. He and his brothers are being persecuted by bounty hunters sent by the princes of hell. He’s doing everything he can not to be killed. While at the same time, trying to find a way through the veil so he can avenge his parents’ murders. Until…

My Review

Years ago Jasmine was attacked by a demon but another demon, Arkon saved her and left her memories intact. Ever since then she's been in and out of mental hospitals and had debilitating panic attacks. No one believed her when she said Demons were real and she started to think she might really be crazy until one day Arkon shows up again because he feels the magic pouring off a magical dagger that Jasmine just happens to get for her antique store. 

Arkon wants to find a way through the veil so he can get back to Hell and avenge his parents murder. The magical dagger that he feels a pull to would be just what he needed if the human female hadn't touched it, now all matter of demons are after her to get the dagger and he can't leave her in danger. 

With the help of a witch and Arkon's brothers, they will try to keep Jasmine safe but the danger seems to be coming from all over so she's not as safe as they think she is. 

I really liked Arkon, he's a demon but he falls hard for Jasmine and she in turn falls for him. Their relationship changes him for the better and he helps her realize that she's not crazy. These two were so good for each other and it was fun to watch them fall for each other. I'm looking forward to reading the next book and seeing his brothers find their mates and hopefully seeing more of the witch because she was interesting. 

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
