I could immediately tell that this would be a memorable story because of the heavy dose of angst. The pairing of Eva and Nathan certainly fits well with the series because it's a combination of light and darkness. Eva's untapped sexuality is well matched with Nathan's expertise as a Dom. This installment is all about the getting to know you phase, with plenty of spice. The BDSM elements are well developed, particularly for someone new to the lifestyle like Eva. Luckily for me, I had the other two installments ready to go after I finished this one. There is a significant cliffhanger at the end, so to avoid disappointment and withdrawal, I strongly encourage having all three books on hand.

I fell in love with The Dark Side series from the moment Eva and Nathan first met. The attraction between them is ignites instantly and I loved watching Nathan pull Eva towards him. It doesn't take long for him to take control of their relationship.Review by Jeep Diva
Oh my gosh…I am hooked on the dark side! The Darkening was an incredible read for me. There wasn’t one thing I didn’t like. All the elements I enjoy where here for me to enjoy. The characters were just WOW (I’ll get back to them in a moment). The dialog had me alternating between laughing and fanning myself. Let’s not forget the details. Frankly, the attention to detail that some authors use can sometimes be wording and boring. However, this was not the case for me today. The author description of the countryside astounded me. I could just see those English Moors and fields of heather. I see other reviews where people will say this is just another FSoG. I do wish people would stop comparing every erotic novel to FSoG because frankly, I enjoyed this story so much more. Between the smarmy comments, the British humor and slang (which I do get) and the hot sex, I was riveted and could not put this book down. If I was to have one complaint about this book is I wish it was longer.

I experienced equal parts of captivation and concern as Eva entered Nathan Darke’s world of BDSM. I was completely fascinated with the dynamic between Nathan and Eva and anxious to see the progression of their relationship. Would Eva’s yearning for something different be fulfilled?
I did really enjoy the story and found myself invested enough to want to continue with the trilogy. I loved the characters and loved the intensity. I’m a curious person by nature, so I need resolution and plan to enjoy the rest of Nathan and Eva’s story!

I really enjoyed DARKENING. Two great protagonists. Nathan is so obviously the dominant alpha male but he also has a softer side which makes him truly likeable. Eva is troubled and socially awkward and I loved her. I really enjoyed the relationship and dynamic between the two and I enjoyed the BDSM aspect immensely - very intense! A great read and I can't wait for Book #2.
