Dark Desires After Dusk by Kresley Cole, 3 1/2

Book description: A seductive beauty he can never have, yet can't resist...
Cadeon Woede will stop at nothing to atone for the one wrong that will haunt him forever. But once he secures the key to his redemption, the halfling Holly Ashwin, Cade finds that the woman he thought he could use for his own ends and then forget haunts him as much as his past.

A tormented warrior she should fear, but can't deny...
Raised as a human, Holly never knew that some frightening legends are real until she encounters a brutal demon who inexplicably guards her like a treasure. Thrust into a sensual new world of myth and power, with him as her protector, she begins to crave the demon's wicked touch.

Surrender to dark desires...
Yet just when he earns Holly's trust, will Cade be forced to betray the only woman who can sate his wildest needs -- and claim his heart?

Review: Dark Desires After Dusk is the fifth book in the Immortals After Dark series. I didn’t like this one as much as the third and fourth books. The romance didn’t work that well for me and Cade came off as a sexist lying bastard most of the time. Holly’s OCD and computer programming made her quirky enough for me to like her. She could have done better than Cade though. Despite my problems, this was still a fun read. I’ll be moving on to the next book in the series.
