Showmance
Chad Beguelin
This would have been 4 stars but I felt the ending was a little too optimistic and pat. Still, Noah, whose Broadway show ran only one night before closing, is a bit neurotic, angry, afraid of the future, but is relatable. His growth is interesting and feels organic. Handyman Luke, who Noah knew and disliked in high school, seems to be everywhere. Noah discovers he didn't know Luke at all. There's some chemistry there. I like Luke, though there are parts when he seems to be a Mary Jane. Still, I enjoyed this fluffy story.

Wicked Nights
Gena Showalter
This is a paranormal romance based in the Lords of the Underworld, but is the first in its own trilogy. This trilogy deals more with angels. Zacharel is one his last chance. He has done his duty in hunting and killing demons, but has killed humans if he considered them in his way. Now he is being forced to keep humans safe. Annabelle is human. She sees angels, demons, beings humans are not supposed to have the ability to see. She's in an institution, holding on to her sanity, when Zacharel finds and helps her escape. That's the beginning of the story. We get to learn about Zacharel's army, how each one of them in on their final chance as well. How any major mistake on any of their parts will cause them all the Fall, to lose their angelic powers and become human. We also get some insight into several angels in his army. I liked it. I don't think you have to read the Lords of the Underworld series to read this book. It is worth reading by itself, though I've read the Lord of the Underworld series, it's like a little treat if you have.
