A Perfect Darkness:
They live ordinary lives, but they are extraordinary. They are the Offspring, children of a mysterious experiment gone awry—and they are in terrible danger.
A sexy stranger awakens Amy Shane in the dead of night. Lucas Vanderwyck barely has time to whisper a few words before three men burst into her bedroom and drag him away. But what Lucas reveals shatters Amy's safe little world forever.
Lucas and Amy share a psychic gift—a gift that could put them in mortal danger. And as they share night after night of savage passion, as a shadowy government conspiracy tracks their every move, they will fight to save each other. But only with their powers of second sight can they escape the terror of a perfect darkness.

Offspring Series
*SPOILER FREE
I can’t remember how I found out about this series, but I did and I utterly enjoyed books one and two at the time. Then last year book three, Touching Darkness, came out and I just couldn’t get myself in the mood to read it. Closing in the turn of the New Year I finally did and I regretted waiting this long to do it.
Touching Darkness was such a great read, much more than what i thought. I was kind of reluctant to read it, since it tells the story of two characters we don’t really know yet. I had my heart set in other HEAs, so I was very pleasantly surprised but how much I enjoyed Nicholas and Olivia’s story. But enough of that, this is about the series in general *grin*.
The Offspring series is about these twenty-something men and women with superpowers, who find out that their parents were part of a government program and that their death’s was much more than they thought. Apparently their parents were given a mysterious booster that made them that much more powerful but that also drove them insane.
From book one, A Perfect Darkness, we start getting to know this group of rogues that are trying to figure out the truth behind their special abilities and their parents’ deaths. They are also trying to bring down the men that experimented on their parents years ago, that now has re-started a similar program to the old one and is using other Offspring to hunt them down. This series is all about the relationships between this group of rogues and each book is the story of each of them finding their love.
The Offspring series is a great Paranormal Romance series that is much more than it seems. In the Third book some of the questions that have been building up in the first two books get answered and we start seeing that the world Jaime had created is anything but simple. I was intrigued and captivated by this series and I can’t wait to read more and more!

It sounds like a bit like Dark Angel. Well, 18+ version. ;) I'm gonna have to check out this series. :)
I like this series because it's paranormal but still different from the vampires, weres and other popular brand of paranormals that is every where. Can't wait to read Eric's book and then Petra's.
