In this riveting new installment of New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter's Lords of the Underworld series, Gideon, keeper of the Demon of Lies, fights to uncover the truth….
Forced to his knees in agony whenever he speaks the truth, Gideon can recognize any lie—until he captures Scarlet, a demon-possessed immortal who claims to be his long-lost wife. He doesn't remember the beautiful female, much less wedding — or bedding — her. But he wants to . . . almost as much as he wants her.
But Scarlet is keeper of Nightmares, too dangerous to roam free, and a future with her could mean ultimate ruin. Especially as Gideon's enemies draw closer . . . and the truth threatens to destroy all he's come to love . . .
From Goodreads:
In this sexy new installment of Showalter's bestselling Lords of the Underworld series, the haunted Amun meets a woman who tempts him like no other...
Keeper of the demon of Secrets, Amun can manipulate the darkest thoughts of anyone nearby. But when the immortal warrior is chained and isolated to protect those he loves, death is his only hope of release—until he meets Haidee, a fellow prisoner whose beauty and hidden vulnerability draw him into a reckless test of his loyalty.
Haidee is a demon-assassin, raised to despise Amun's kind. Yet how can she hate the man whose touch sets her aflame? But to save him, she must give herself body and soul...and face the wrath of a powerful adversary sworn to destroy her.

My first review of The Darkest Lie, The Darkest Secret
My second review of The Darkest Secret
My Review:
Oh, I really enjoyed reading these books again! I just love this series, and it was a blast to see these characters fall in love again! The Darkest Secret was the first book in tis series that I read since I first started blogging, which is wild, but holds a special place in my heart!
It's funny since Secret is more recent then Lie, but I remembered more about The Darkest Lie then the Darkest Secret. I mean, there were a few things, from Secret, about Haidee/Hadiee, but the things that Scarlet's aunt did to them, that I remembered, which was so awful!
Gideon's story was set up in the previous books, with his injury, and with Scarlet's capture. But watching them fall in love, knowing that her memories of him are almost entirely made up, that they were building something new, but together, yeah, I really enjoyed their story!

Then there's Amun and Haidee. I'd totally forgotten how her whole thing worked, or how tightly her history was intertwined with the Lords, besides her being the one and only Bait that actually ended up getting a Lord killed. But oh, their journey though Hell, and meeting William's children, falling in love, it was such a great story!
These were such great reads, and I can't wait to continue on with my reread!
