Silver Mortal is without a doubt one of the coolest books you will read this year!! It has such an amazing story line & super cool
characters no other book can compare to it! Once I started reading I couldn't stop and I found myself getting deeper and deeper by every page until I realized I had devoured the book in one day's sitting and still I wanted more!!!

missions she comes in contact with a Viper who claims everything is not as it seems and he doesn't want to live in evil & destruction and asks Gracen and her mom for help.. Everything Gracen has been taught about Vipers leaves her confused.. can she trust him??? can he really change and be good??? read on to find out... you won't believe what happens!!!!

I received this this book as an ARC for review. The release date for Silver Mortal is September 21st, 2012.
I am so glad I didn't have to wait to get my hands on it.
Alot of YA books out there with sixteen years old characters just don't sound sixteen. I really feel like it's a teenager telling the story. Even at only 4% into the book I felt like I was much farther in which is amazing. I felt like I knew Gracen already. From the very beginning you know she's going to be a very strong character. From her thought process to her sassy mouth to her moral compass.
I really feel for Gracen being sixteen and not able to live in a teenage world must be so hard to deal with.
I love phoenix brought up in a horrible place and tormented every day of his life. But though everything he still has the kindest of souls.
brought together under the most desperate of circumstances Gracen and Phoenix are brought together soul mates as star crossed lovers in a way, mortal enemies in love. And everything Gracen was brought up to feel tells her that it's wrong, that he is the enemy. I really like how their relationship unfolds neither of them ever having a real relationship before.
Wonderfully written this book had very strong characters and the flow of the story was perfect. I enjoyed every moment I was reading this book and have to say that It is very much a must read. Five stars to Silver Mortal and an A+ to Jenna for an amazing book!

Hea y'all Anne here with my review of Silver Mortal by Jenna Kay. Wow what an intense and original read!! Jenna has taken the time honored tale of good versus evil and thrown her unique and new idea into it. The story is fast paced, from page one you're thrown into the world of Gracen Potts, Touched human in an Untouched world!! From the very beginning the action is hardcore and in your face as Gracen takes the readers on a journey they will not forget! Born of the light and destinted to defend the Untouched from the lurking darkness, what will Gracen do when her world is flung from semi not normal to are you freaking joking insane? Jenna has done a spectacular job creating a world full of olf favorites and adding her new amazing breeds of characters into it, thus spinning the tale that is Silver Mortal.
Gracen Potts is the main character and what I adore is she is real, a mouthy, attitude filled, shy, and self doubting 16 year old girl who just wants to fit in. She knows she's not like anyone else but what she doesn't know is how different she really is. Enter Bets her best friend, daring and promiscuous Bets is always hunting her next great triumph usually int he form of a quarterback or ultimate bad boy! Gracen is thrown for a loop when the mysterious and dark Phoenix shows up in her first period class, he bears the mark of the Night Viper her enemy. What ever will happen? Simple love story with a liitle danger? Not a Chance!!! Nothing that happens is simple or little and the author made sure of that. The supporting cast is amazing in not one slipped by unnoticed.. They each play their parts and play them well, every character has a purpose in this story and are all utilized in appropriate and timely ways. By that I mean, they aren't jsut wondering around the book being in the way. They are placed and used in a fashion that keeps the reader in touch while not losing focus of the main story that is happening.
I know I've siad a couple of times it's action packed but I don't think I can stress that enough. Some books have lulls of action where the author builds a relationship or a plot line but Jenna does all that while the characters are kicking major demon ass the whole time. What's not to love about this book? No list there, I can't think of one thing I didn't like. I enjoyed the story from wicked beginning to the mouth dropping ending and I am anxious for more to know what is going to happen next. 5 out of 5 stars for Silver Mortal by Jenna Kay, well done can't wait for more!!

I read a lot of books and sometimes it can feel like you're reading the same concepts and storylines that you've read before. So when I come across something that is new and fresh and original, I cant help but get excited!! Let me tell you, Silver Mortal is like nothing I've ever read before.
Gracen Potts is a touched human. A Silver Mortal. By day she attempts to be a normal 16 year old, going to school and dealing with the normal things that most teenage girls deal with. But things aren't easy!! She looks different with her white hair and skin and so she doesn't really fit in. In fact she is pretty much seen as a freak!! But each night at midnight Gracen feels the change!! She feels the Silver Eagle coming to life in her blood and that's when she becomes this kick ass demon slayer!! She has these mad ninja like fighting skills and an arsenal of weapons. Her job is to slay the demons. To get rid of the evil. Then she meets Phoenix, a Night Viper and a group of his fellow Vipers. Vipers are her enemy!! But something feels very different about Phoenix. She feels only goodness and honesty coming from him. But how can that be?
Silver Mortal is filled with action right from the start but still manages to build the intensity and suspense all the way throughout the book. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing. The romance is perfect. Two people on such opposite sides of the spectrum finding love. The characters are fantastic and I especially loved Gracen's sarcastic and sassy comments and her relationship with Phoenix.
I've read Jenna Kay's writing before and loved it, but Silver Mortal just blows that out of the water!! This book is an awesome read and is fantastically written!! Make sure you give this book a read!!

Stunning and Epic! What a ride! Gracen is a Silver Mortal, a supernatural teen who, after midnight, becomes super powerful, rare being. Her eyes turn silver and silver claw marks appear on her skin. She’d love more than anything to be normal, but her life as a demon and scum of the supernatural world hunter and killer has her riding out into the night to take care of business. Gracen is a strong-willed teen but wants to do the right thing. She hunts with her mother, another silver mortal with the help of their gadget making sidekick, Jude.
When Gracen meets Phoenix, a Night Viper who’s Gracen’s natural enemy, she is thrown for a curve when he tells her that there is a group of them who want to defect from the Viper clan and fight demons. Gracen finds it all pretty confusing, especially with the deep feelings she develops for Phoenix blossom. Agreeing to fight with him and his small band of friends, she encounters some truths about herself that she’d rather not know.
I loved this story! It had so much action, thrills and enough romance to heat it up nicely! The writing is witty, funny at times and engaging. It brings you into Gracen’s life head on and delivers with butt kicking style. Paranormal was never so much fun, and dangerous! The secrets her mother holds from her, the realization of things not being so black and white in her world just send Gracen spinning. She has a strong head on her shoulders and with the help of Phoenix and his band of Vipers, they might have a chance to survive the greatest evil of all.
Adding to the awesomeness, Gracen’s slutty but well-meaning friend, Bets, keeps the joking fresh and upbeat. Overall, an action packed and highly recommended story.

My review 5 out of 5 stars
Wow, this book took me to a whole new world of paranormal! I am speechless from the ending! I can’t wait for the next book! At first I was in love with the book because it gave you an awesome sense of paranormal beings being disgusting, I loved that outlook, I am excited to say this was more amazing then I ever thought it could be. I just can’t describe my emotions at this moment there was a huge cliffhanger but not the one where you are angry but the one where you are more excited about the next book then you are for Christmas! To start off it was exhilarating I loved the killing and the action it was way detailed and awesome! I loved the whole “night vipers” and “silver mortals.” It was incredible and a GREAT read!
Gracen- She was amazing! She knew what she was doing and she was awesome! She was cocky, snobby and funny. She was exciting and a good example of how girls should be.
Ash- He was not crazy to me, he was lost, lonely, depressed, and haunted from his past.
Phoenix- He was brave, hostile, caring, not judgmental, and kind. He was very strong willed on being a good person and he truly accomplished that. He was willing to sacrifice himself for others and that takes guts and dignity.
Betrina (bets)- When people say “love means (Legs Open Very Easy)” she proves that, she’s spunky and funny, but she is very vulgar, I like her as a character though, she was built well.
I can say all in all that this was spectacular read, don’t take that lightly, it was action packed, thrilling, exhilarating, exciting, and awesome! I would read it again just to get the same happiness this gave me.
I will be impatiently waiting for book two, and believe me it will be agonizing! So, hopefully it publishes soon!

My review of Silver Mortal by Jenna Kay
Rating 5*****
This book was provided free from the author in exchange for honest literary review.
Gracen Potts lived a completely normal life until puberty struck. Once she hit the start of her womanhood she was shipped from the home she shared with her loving grandma to the big apple to live with a mom she hardly knows. Gracen is a silver mortal, sent by the eagle to protect us mere humans from thinlgs that go bump in the night. She and her mom ( who is also a silver) fight demons from hell to protect the earth every night. What a way to spend your teenage years!
Now, add Phoenix to the mix. Being born a Viper, he is supposed to be inheritantly evil. Gracem should be battling him...but instead she is drawn to him. In fact, it seems as if his body calls to her. Could it be possible?
Loved this story. Gracen fights demons at night with power and deternination. By day she is a normal teen. One who is unsure, shy and bashful. She takes a journey during this novel not only to save her friends and family but also to blend the warrior and the adolescent girl. The story is full of action as well, between vamps and weres and trolls...all possessed and controlled by twisted demons. Great story and start to a new series. I for one really love Gracen and Phoenix ....I can't wait to see where their story goes! They are one of the best written and loveable couples I have read in a while!!!!!!

Rating is 4 1/2 stars.
We received this book as an ARC to review.
This review and others are also available at Readers In Wonderland
Silver Mortal is about a girl named Gracen who has abnormally white hair and skin most people judge her because of this and call her a freak. Other than this her life was pretty normal, until the day she went out and saw her first werewolf, or a demon really. The demons take the form of human monsters (i.e. vampires, weres, trolls etc.) After seeing the demon She undergoes a transformation and her grandmother sends her to live with her mother, who teachers her about the Silver Eagle and how to slay demons after midnight.
The action scenes reminded me a bit of Sweet Venom by Tera Lynn Childs. You'll be on the edge of your seat while Gracen takes on hoards of demons with her mother and Love interest Phoenix.
The characters are really likeable and easily relatable. There are plenty of twists and turns in the plot and the ending is a definite shocker leaving you wondering: What happens next?
Make sure to check this book out when it comes out September 21st.

I received an eARC copy of this book directly from the author in return for an honest review.
This has to be one of the best YA demon hunter books I’ve read in a long time. The storyline alone is one of a kind and I love how they change and their powers are stronger at midnight because well demons are out at night! Sliver Mortal is fast paced, full of action and surprises that will leave you looking for book 2! This book is a must read if you love YA paranormal!
Gracen Potts is a 16 year old teenager who is a touched human. A Silver Mortal. During the day she goes to school hangs out with her best friend things most girls her age do. Except at midnight the Silver Eagle in her blood starts the change and she is ready to go hunt demons with her mom (who’s also a Silver Mortal). If there is anything Gracen can’t stand more than demons it’s Vipers. That is until she meets Phoenix Being born a Viper, he is supposed to be Evil but him and some others want nothing to do with the evil they were born into, they want to help people like Gracen and her mother. I’m not giving anymore, If you want more you will just have to find out yourself.

This is a wonderful young adult paranormal romance about a 16 year old named Gracen. Being a Silver Mortal, she has special powers that allow her to see the supernatural and kick some demon butt. Her kind is made to protect the regular mortals from these demons. Gracen didn't know she had special powers until she was 13, and she does an awesome job despite the fact that she only had 3 years to train.
Gracen meets a group of Night Vipers – her mortal enemy. They claim to have escaped their clan, and want to work with her to defeat the demons. This is unheard of, so naturally Gracen is suspicious. She starts feeling an attraction to Phoenix – who is the leader of this group. Phoenix is strong, handsome, tortured, and sweet – you know...the type of fictional boyfriend that all girls swoon after. He's a great guy and has feelings for Gracen as well.
Gracen is a wonderful lead female character. She is so snarky and witty, and not afraid to fight. She has a tough life. By day she is the typical teenager going to school. After midnight, she is primed for battle. This story is fast paced and action packed. The storyline is very enjoyable and will keep you turning the pages.
My favorite thing, of course, is the romance. I love the “forbidden” aspect of it – 2 characters from two totally different worlds finding love for the first time. There is a cliffhanger at the end which is killing me. I'm dying to know when book #2 comes out!

10*s. I recieved an eARC copy of this book directly from the author in return for an honest review.
This is an awesome fast paced book of action, surprises, edge of your seat suspence, and the humor in it makes me think that these are really sixteen year olds, because I could picture in my mind that that is actually what a teenager would say or do!! I am extremely fond of Gracen, because she is an awesome character and one kick butt heroine. I love to read books where the girl is the main butt kicking character. Gracen is such a strong, powerful teenager and I loved reading about her and cant wait to read more. I was hooked, line, and sunk in from the very first sentence. This is a MUST read YA story that even adults will enjoy!! Thank you, Jenna, for the fabulously fun story!!

I loved Silver Mortal from the beginning. The writing style was compelling, and allowed you to get lost in the story. There were twists that I didn't see coming and enough suspense to cause me to keep turning the pages. I needed to see what was going to happen to Gracen next. I am looking forward to the next book in the series!!

I received this book to give an honest review.
Let me ask this first! When will the next book be out. :D I want to know what happens next!
Silver Eagle is fast-paced, full of action, surprises and humor.
The action involved with kicking demon butt was great! The surprises well you just have to read to find those out! And the humor oh my!!!! I found myself laughing especially at Gracen's best friend Bets.
Gracen is not your normal, average sixteen year old. She is something so much more, by day she has a decent teenage life, but at night she is a demon kicking heroine. Though Gracen would love to have a normal life she knows she would never be able to.
Her best friend Bets has no clue as to what she does, and the kind of life she lives. Bets on the other hand lives a very we are going to go with the word "social" life and you will find humor with Bets and what she says.
One of my favorite quotes that Bet uses: "Life is too short to dwell on the past or worry about the future, so grab the present by the balls and don't let go."
Gracen ends up meeting a young boy named Phoenix and now her world is really upside down. He tells her that there is a group like him that want her help, but yet he is suppose to be the enemy. On top of that Gracen is getting some type of feelings for him?
While dealing with Phoenix, Gracen finds out her mom has been holding out on her with secrets and they all come to the surface.
One of my favorite parts Gracen is talking about Trolls.
"All demons stink, but man, do Trolls take the whole cake! They smell like sewage and sulfur. Imagine the stinkiest fart in the world, bottle it up and voila! Troll perfume."
This part had me in just a fit of giggles.
If you are looking for a good read that will keep you entertained from the beginning to the end! Has a variety of paranormal, action, humor, surprises, and tinge of romance. Then go and get your copy right now.

This series is about Gracen Potts, a sixteen year old demon slayer with an "I don't care" attitude. She hunts demons alongside her mother and their Informant, Jude. They come from a long line of Silver Mortals, a group of "Touched" humans that have been gifted superhuman powers to destroy what Hell brings to earth. There's also another group of Touched humans called Night Vipers. They work closely with darkness and want nothing more than to let Hell run rampant on earth. When Gracen meets Phoenix, a rebel viper, her whole world unravels.
I hope everyone enjoys reading this series as much as I enjoy writing it. :)

Silver Mortal is a great paranormal thriller/suspense. I especially loved the story. Well written. The characters are great and well thought out. This book kept me wanting to read more until I was finished. I am truly looking forward to reading the next book. This story is about how opposites, who have been taught to destroy their enemies, can overcome learned responsibilities and embrace their true selves. Love has once again conquered what was once known as impossible. Even as sixteen year old Gracen learns and adapts to her true nature, she evolves into a strong force to be reckoned with. Recommended read!

First time reading this author, and very glad I stumbled upon it. Very well written, loved the storyline it was so different then anything I had read before.
Gracen is a bit of a freak, she looks different then everyone else and doesn't care what they think of her. She has a purpose and that's all that matters. She fights demons and protects humans. When she stumbles upon someone that doesn't fit the mold of bad guy, she has to readjust her thinking and learn to work together to save everyone they care about.
Awesome YA book, can't wait to see what happens next.

This book had some original plot and theme. I did make it all the way through it. Issues that bothered me were misused words, jargon or slang and the author's determination to try and write the story in present tense.
It appears to be moot as the author has unpublished the book. Due to this fact this is the only place I will be posting this review.

A good YA fantasy tale that seems to be in vogue in today's world. It has a strong female lead and deals with some of the issues that surround 'difference', in this case what would be deemed the 'paranormal' of sorts. It's reasonably written and flows quite well.
I don't give spoilers, but would say that this is a story worth reading.
