1. Daemon Black from The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I will always remember when I first crushed on Daemon Black from Obsidian. He was the epitome of the bad boy, the guy who is too cocky for his own good and knows that he is gorgeous. I fell head-over-heels in love with Jennifer Armentrout’s novels after I read Obsidian, but I never connected as much to a fictional guy as I did Daemon. I think it is because he has a really incredible character arc throughout not only the first book in the series but the series as a whole. He is a great character that is always very loyal to his friends and his family.
Synopsis:
Starting over sucks.
When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring… until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up.
And then he opened his mouth.
Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something… unexpected happens.
The hot alien living next door marks me.
You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon’s touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades.
If I don’t kill him first, that is.
