A troubled soul. An impossible choice. A final battle.

Wrestling with the werewolf curse pulsing deep inside of her, Grace Divine was finally able to find her brother, but it nearly cost her everything.

With her boyfriend, Daniel, stuck in wolf form and Sirhan's death approaching, time is running out for Grace to stop Caleb Kalbi and his gang of demons. If she fails, her family and hometown will perish. Everything rests on Grace's shoulders.

The final installment in The Dark Divine trilogy brings Daniel and Grace's love story to a breathtaking conclusion.

I’m glad that I finally had a chance to finish this series. I enjoyed watching the characters grow and come into a future they never thought the see.

1. Plot. The plot moved quickly. If you have not read the first two books, I suggest you do. Since this book dives in right where the last one left off, its important you read the other books so that your not confused.  Still, the plot has lots of action, fights and a lot of solving mysteries.

2. Back Round History. This book contains lots of history dating back to Egyptians times. I enjoyed all the history that is mixed in with the present tense. Still, at times I felt like some of these parts through the present story off. Like, you had to have know what happened in the past in order to know whats going on now. Know what I mean? I get that you had to go back, still I felt like it took away from what was happen with the characters now.

3. Love Interest. No insta-love. Instead this love grew over three books and left me very satisfied  I like that despite all the trials they went through, they always made it.

4. Parent Involvement. You know, not that many YA books have their parents involved. I like that in this story, the parents helped. They were involved in every step of the way. I adored that.

5. Ending. It’s not a HEA but it left off on a realistic note that I can enjoy.

The ending to a great series is satisfying and fun. Impressive and action-packed, The Savage Grace fulfills an ending that is intense. Consuming and moving, The Savage Grace is great!

I give it 4 BITES!

Happy Reading!

    I’ve heard great things about this series. I love when parents are very involved in the books too. It makes it seem more realistic to me. I might have to check out this series if I ever have time.

  3. Love the sound of the love interest and the parent involvement! Also, even though I crave an HEA, I’m still happy to hear that it was satisfying. *sigh* I still need to read book 1.
