Tempted (House of Night #6) by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast
SUMMARY 

So…you’d think after banishing an immortal being and a fallen High Priestess, saving Stark’s life, biting Heath, getting a headache from Erik, and almost dying, Zoey Redbird would catch a break. Sadly, a break is not in the House of Night school forecast for the High Priestess in training and her gang.
Juggling three guys is anything but a stress reliever, especially when one of them is a sexy Warrior who is so into protecting Zoey that he can sense her em6otions. Speaking of stress, the dark force lurking in the tunnels under the Tulsa Depot is spreading, and Zoey is beginning to believe Stevie Rae could be responsible for a lot more than a group of misfit red fledglings. Aphrodite’s visions warn Zoey to stay away from Kalona and his dark allure, but they also show that it is Zoey who has the power to stop the evil immortal.Soon it becomes obvious that Zoey has no choice: if she doesn’t go to Kalona he will exact a fiery vengeance on those closest to her. Will Zoey have the courage to chance losing her life, her heart, and her soul? 

MY REVIEW 

Still he was too late. 

The book with the two very important deaths and the shuttering of a very important soul.
One of the best cliff-hangers that I have ever read.

In a voice torn from her soul, and so filled with anguish Stark hardly recognized her, Zoey screamed, “No!” and threw the glowing ball of spirit at Kalona. 

In contrast to the first books in the series, Tempted has 6 points of view by: Zoey, Stevie Rae, Aphrodite, Rephaim, Heath and Stark.

Lots of things happen in the book that make Zoey’a story take another devastating turn. Although this is a young adult novel, it does not lack scenes of seduction and cruel deaths.

This is also the book where:

-Rephaim and Stevie Ray get closer

“Kill me. End this,” he gasped, panting in pain.
The sound of his voice was so human, so completely unexpected that Stevie Rae dropped her hands and staggered a step back. “You can talk!” she blurted.
Then the Raven Mocker did something that utterly shocked Stevie Rae and irrevocably changed the course of her life.
He laughed. 

-Aphrodite and Darius are together

“She’s really amazing,” Darius said as he gazed lovingly after her. 

The truth is that Aphrodite has changed remarkably since book 1 and she has become one of the most interesting characters....while Erik has become one if the most annoying characters.
