Bitter Sweet Love — Jennifer Armentrout

Bitter Sweet Love is a novella (Book 0.5) in the Dark Elements universe and acts as a prologue to the main trilogy. Des and Jasmine were inseparable growing up — he was her protector, guiding her through her responsibilities as a Guardian while fighting demons and maintaining the balance between dark and light. But then Des disappears without explanation. Three years later, he returns stronger, more determined, and hoping to rekindle what they once had. He has seven days to win back her heart — or break it again. In 144 pages (hardcover, Ukrainian edition) this story sets the stage for passion, secrets, and the supernatural struggle to come.
