Demons at Deadnight (Divinicus Nex Chronicles, #1)

This book is a fast-paced fun-filled ride that had me laughing quite a bit. It's YA Urban Fantasy, and there is a very special snowflake, but it is still a burrito of awesomeness smothered in that red sauce and cheese. Oh, with guacamole and sour cream.... hmmm, I think I'm hungry...
Okay... I stopped for a snack for a minute. I'm back.
So, we have Aurora, our special snowflake. She can see demons and has spent all of her teen years running away from them. She was attacked badly, by humans, and her family moved her to their old hometown to get her away from the city. There, she meets up with her old friends from childhood - a group of guys. Sexy sexy boys, who happen to be demon hunters.
They are known as the "Hex Boys" around school and they don't hang out with anyone but each other, and they don't date. But, Aurora is super clumsy and special. The sexy boys save her life.
Sound familiar?
The great logic is that one of the sexy boys will 'pretend' to be her boyfriend so that she has a steady guard around her at all times. Of course, two of the sexy boys are fighting over this honor.
"Oh. My. God," Luna blurted from Ayden's back seat. "It's a love triangle... It's just like in my book. Two guys after one girl and-"
I groaned. "That's ridiculous, Luna, this is not a love triangle."
"Says the girl in the middle of a love triangle... I've got to call Danica. Oooo," She squealed. "We could have teams. Team Ayden and Team Blake." With T-shirts and buttons and --"
What a fresh idea!
But, here's the thing. This book is so good! The action, the wittiness, the characters are all so much fun that I never minded the special snowflake. I even liked her! I know! Crazy! I even have a strong feeling that I know where things are going with the "romance" angle, and I still don't mind. So, either I have a brain tumor, or this was just an entertaining story. Either way, I'm happy.

Thank you, Arianna! :)
It's been awhile since I read this book, but yeah, I remember thinking (view spoiler)
I haven't read book 2 yet (it took a loooong time to come out, and I kinda just never got around to it once it did). I'll look forward to seeing how you like it! :)
(view spoiler)
Okay, I know it's a long-shot, but that's the way my brain works. ;)
I'm just so happy that we liked the same book! lol! I also got the idea to read it from you, so thanks, girl! ♥
