Personal Demons is a unique take on the angels and demons debate. I have always been in love with angels but this book has made me rethink that attitude. I am Team Luc all the way!Frannie Cavanaugh's life is perfectly normal until Luc Cain shows up. Luc is not like any guy she has ever met and she can't help but be drawn to him. Then Gabe shows up. He's just as mysterious as Luc but where Luc is dark and dangerous, Gabe is goodness and light. What Frannie doesn't know is that Luc and Gabe are battling against each other for something; her soul.At first I wasn't sure how I would feel about Personal Demons. I had a hard time getting into it. There wasn't a whole lot going on in the beginning but that quickly changed. After about the first 50 pages I couldn't put the book down and now I'm dying for more. Lisa Desrochers knew just how to end the book and leave readers wanting more.The characters were both the best and worst part of the book. Luc and Frannie were great and very well-developed. That is where it stopped though. Gabe was confusing. I never felt like I understood him and I didn't know what he felt about Frannie. I wanted more depth to him. Same with Frannie's friends, Taylor and Riley. Taylor seemed like a bitch for most of the book. She didn't seem at all like a good friend.Overall, Personal Demons had its flaws but the good parts outweighed them. Lisa Desrochers has a fabulous debut and the sequel, Original Sin, can't be released soon enough.
