First I'd just like to say thank you to Mrs. Phoenix for providing me with an ARC copy of When Night Falls in exchange for an honest review.I'd also like to say this review does contain a few spoilers.When Night Falls is one of the best sci-fy paranormal thrillers that I have read in a long time and one of my favorite reads this year so far.This book kept me on the edge of my seat from page one until the end.Mrs. Phoenix is one of my all time favorite authors. I've read everything she's ever put out and loved every word! She's one of those authors that never stops surprising her readers with the stories she puts out. I for one am amazed at the worlds she creates and the stories she weaves.When Night Falls is not your typical dystopian zombie apocalypse story. The earth is gone. 7,000 remain in space. And now that there is hope of a new world within their grasp an infection hits. With nowhere to run the only thing anyone can do is fight and survive. The action in this book kept my heart pounding through the whole story. But the best part of any story written by Mrs. Phoenix is the swoon worthy love story that is woven throughout and above all of the chaos happening. Scarlett and Rolf are so starcrossed abut perfect for each other. I enjoyed watching their relationship unfold. I loved Hunter he is the perfect best friend. Kiera annoyed the hell out of me but she's one of those characters that I feel will evolve into a very likable girl in books to come and i'm really hoping there are more books to come. This has been one of my books to read this year and in my opinion should be on everyones to-be-read list.Here are two of my favorite snipits of the book:Scarlett to Kiera:"I lost my Family!" she snarled into the girl's stunned expression. "I lost my home and my friends. I would give anything to have them back, even for a day. But I'll be damned if I let some spoiled, two bit, little bitch disparage my momory of them. The next time you open your mouth, you better think very carefully on what comes out, or i will cut out your tounge."Scarlett and rolf:Drawing back, she kissed him. It was rash and impulsive and no doubt a very stupid mistake, but common sense no longer had control over her. She couldn't think beyond the wild drumming of elation and relief coursing through her, fueling the desperate need to be as close as humanly possible to the man crushing her in his arms. At her back, his hands fisted in her top as he returned the frenzied and reckless kiss. His hunger drove her to push harder for more. Her finger curled into his hair and held him to her as the world around them melted and vanished.
