Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins is a paranormal young adult book about angels, demons, and humans mixed into one world.
The main character, Anna Whitt, is a good girl that doesn't get into any trouble. She knows she is different from humans though because she can remember her birth. She has the possibility to see auras of how the people around her are feeling, her sight is extreme, and she can see guardian angels. She doesn't know until later in the book that she is half demon and half angel. Her mother was an angel of light and her father is a Duke demon.
The main male lead, Kaiden Rowe, is a sexy half demon that has the control of lust on the other girls around him. His job is to get as many girls in bed as he can because that is what he is supposed to do. His father is a Duke demon also. Kaiden is also a drummer for a band and this is how Anna and Kaiden meet.

So this book was a good read and I really enjoyed both of the main characters. This is a re-read review because I decided to marathon all three books but that doesn't mean I really remembered what happened when I read it first in 2012.
The relationship between Kai and Anna is very complicated. Anna is worried about Kai's line of work in the first book mainly because she is still so innocent. She doesn't understand the world that Kai lives in and how demons cannot say no to their fathers. They must work to be able to live some sort of life with their dad off their back.
Throughout the book, I was really interested in Kai and how he worked. Wondered what he would do for Anna once he started showing feelings for her. This book was a normal way to show a want but can't have theme throughout the entire book. It seems like that may be the case throughout the whole series until something changes. Wendy Higgins has an interesting way to take that though because they don't try to be together against everyone else. That can mess things up in other books and upsets the readers. Even though this is also tedious because you want them to be together, there isn't any problems except how they feel.
I think the next two books will be a good journey to take with Kai and Anna. I cannot wait to read more about them in the final two books. I would recommend this series to anyone that enjoys a paranormal read with a love aspect mixed in with some drama.
