“After falling for a Cambion and then turning into one herself, Samara never thought her senior year could get any more complicated. The gaps in her memory, the mysterious deaths and the constant danger that threaten her once quiet town have a common thread: Tobias, a demon with a lot of enemies. He’s also Samara’s other soul mate and he’s suddenly disappeared. But Samara isn’t the only one who wants to find Tobias. His enemies are getting closer and their plans for retribution could mean deadly consequences for Samara and her true soul mate, Caleb.”

I found this book, especially the love interest very frustrating. It had great action, with some awesome twist
What I enjoyed most about this book is the love interest. Call me a masochist but the way that these two went back at forth at each other, fighting then kissing. Yelling then kissing. More fighting and more kissing. They seriously remind me of that song by Maroon 5, One More Night. LOL. Still, this love interest kept me quite entertained.  
The plot once again, dives straight into the cambion world with lots of rule breaking and more history. I really loved learning more about the families and what they all mean. Each family has powerful ties and know what they want. The best part about this book is Samara learning more about her other side as well as that history. Watching it all flash before her eyes along with the reader is neat!
Overall, Fading Amber is a great story. I’m hoping that the next book will finally conclude all what has really been happening behind the scenes. Fading Amber has a great plot with lots of emotion to throw at the reader. Never a dull moment, Fading Amber is awesome!
I give it 4 BITES!
Happy Reading!

    Hmmmm. I’m trying to decide if all the fighting and then making up will irritate me or if I’ll find it entertaining as you did. Sometimes I like all the tension that kind of relationship creates and sometimes I just can’t deal with it:) I should probably read the first two book in the series first though!

    Bahaha. Fighting and kissing! That could either be really good or annoy me to hell! >.<

    Oh I love the love and hate dynamic!! I have had the first book of this series on my TBR list forever. This sounds like a very frustrating romance, but entertaining. At least I know there’s gotta be some major chemistry and tension going on between them. Great review chick!!

  4. Sometimes I like that fighting/romance dynamic and sometimes not. Now I’m going to have to listen to that Maroon5 song now. 😀
