Swoon Thursday (#15): Pretty Dark Nothing by Heather L. Reid

Swoon Thursday is a hot meme hosted by the fabulous ladies at YA Bound!

Err, sorry I missed last week! But I have one this week. Check it out!

This week, my swoon is from Pretty Dark Nothing by Heather L. Reid!

"Two pools of golden green looked into the depths of her eyes, and her breath caught in her chest. 'Every time I get close to you, you push me away. I wanted to have one night, one second where I didn't think about you.' And then his lips were on hers. She rocked with the fierceness of his kiss, and she kissed him back, twining her hands through his dark, her heartbeat outracing hers. He pulled his mouth from hers, cupped the back of her next, and pulled her forehead to meet his until they were eye to eye."

I really liked this book! I did not expect the romance in this book to be so significant, because it seemed like a horror paranormal book to me, but the romance is huge! Works for me!

So, what made you swoon this week?
