Dark Touch: Shadows by Amy Meredith

From Goodreads:  Fifteen-year-old Eve Evergold is cute, sassy and enjoying a busy social life. What she doesn't know yet is that someone close to her is an evil demon that only she has the supernatural power to defeat. She needs to work out who it is - and fast! Because although there's something very attractive about the dark side...dating a demon? Pure hell!

The is a fun start to the series. Centered around Eve and her new found supernatural abilities, it follows her investigating the strange happenings in her home town of Deepdene.

As I said this book is fun and it knows it. It doesn't take itself too seriously and that's why it worked for me. Eve and her best friend Jess are typical teenage girls - very into clothes and makeup - typical girly things. But they obviously care for each other which is nice. We are also introduced to Luke - who manages to annoy Eve within seconds of being in her company - and the mysterious Mal. Both are interesting but Luke was definitely my favourite.

Quick to read and not too heavy - I read the rest of the series back to back because I liked them so much. I hope there are many more to come - they are definitely a guilty pleasure of mine.
