Today's review is on Ardeur by Danielle Gavan
Ardeur Lisle should have died the day she was born, but she did not.
  Through the help of an Angel she survived, only to live a life full 
pain, torture, and loneliness. 
Everyone has imaginary friends as a child, but Ardeur's were not 
imaginary.  Her friends were ghosts.  It was because of this strange 
ability that she was ridiculed in school by just about everyone except 
Brody Callaghan, the boy with the beautiful dimples and the roguishly 
handsome smile.
Her parents, who only provided the basics, pulled her out of school 
eventually and began teaching her magic spells.  They then sold her and 
never looked back.  Those that purchased Ardeur summoned a demon, and 
that demon made himself at home within her.  
Forced to commit horrible acts, Ardeur begins to plan her escape.  
Once she does, she is forced to live on the run until she is hit by an 
SUV.  Fortunately, the boy who pledged that he would always protect her 
had finally found her.  His love for her never faltering.  
He's not the only one who's in love with Ardeur however.  It seems 
that the very Angel that saved her life as an infant is in love with her
 also.  But when she doesn't fall in love with him all hell breaks 
loose.
After nineteen years of sorrow, Ardeur is on the brink of happiness 
with a man who loves her and whom she loves back.  Now if they can only 
survive the wrath of Death.
Ardeur was a very good book, though there were quite a bit of 
mistakes.  The story line was quite unique and kept me engaged 
throughout it's pages.  I am looking forward to the next installment so 
that I may see Ms. Gavan grow as a writer.
