Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (Between, #1) by April Genevieve Tucholke

Publication date: August 15, 2013

You stop fearing the devil when you’re holding his hand…

Nothing much exciting rolls through Violet White’s sleepy, seaside town…until River West comes along. River rents the guesthouse behind Violet’s crumbling estate, and as eerie, grim things start to happen, Violet begins to wonder about the boy living in her backyard. Is River just a crooked-smiling liar with pretty eyes and a mysterious past? Or could he be something more? Violet’s grandmother always warned her about the Devil, but she never said he could be a dark-haired boy who takes naps in the sun, who likes coffee, who kisses you in a cemetery...who makes you want to kiss back. Violet’s already so knee-deep in love, she can’t see straight. And that’s just how River likes it. (Goodreads)

First of all, what a gorgeous cover! Although I do wish that the title was smaller so that I could really appreciate that striking image.

I hope that this doesn't turn into another typical paranormal romance, especially because the blurb sounds so promising! I am so intrigued as to why the Devil is residing in a sleepy, seaside town and what he's planning to do with Violet. And that last sentence! 

What are you waiting on?

I hope that everyone who celebrated Christmas yesterday had a wonderful day full of love and family!
