It wasn't that long ago that I discovered the Lux series and fell in love with Daemon and the world that Jennifer created. It reminds me so much of one of my favorite TV shows and I really can't seem to get enough. I devoured the books in the Lux series so fast that I was dying for more. Then I heard about Obsession. It's set in the Lux world, but is an adult stand alone?! I was sold immediately and so was a copy of the book.I found this book absolutely fascinating. It was funny at times, super hot at times and nerve wracking at times and I loved every minute of it. What I absolutely found awesome was that while the Lux series is told from the point of view of the Luxen, Obsession was told from the other side. Hunter is an Arum, the supposed bad guys of the alien races, but we learn more about them, and the Luxen, in Obsession and it turns out that everything isn't as black and white as it seems. My mind was kind of blown by this and I think it's great that Jennifer went that route.Hunter and Serena were pretty hot together, but there were moments I was annoyed by them as well. Most of the time though I loved their banter and Serena's smart mouth. I hope that we get more of books like these. Perhaps this won't be a standalone and we get can get an entire Arum series. I'd love to learn more about Hunter's siblings. And I really want to know more about Luc and Paris (characters from the Lux series that we also see in Obsession). Hopefully some of this will be in the super long list of books that Jennifer has coming in the future. I'll definitely be crossing my fingers.
