Vincent waited lifetimes to find me, but in an instant our future together was shattered. He was betrayed by someone we both called a friend, and I lost him. Now our enemy is determined to rule over France’s immortals, and willing to wage a war to get what they want.
It shouldn’t be possible, none of it should be, but this is my reality. I know Vincent is somewhere out there, I know he’s not completely gone, and I will do anything to save him.
After what we’ve already fought to achieve, a life without Vincent is unimaginable. He once swore to avoid dying—to go against his nature and forsake sacrificing himself for others—so that we could be together. How can I not risk everything to bring my love back to me? (Goodreads)
I don't know if I'm the only one who does this, but sometimes when the last book in a series I've loved releases, I kind of hesitate to pick it up. Not because I'm not dying to know what happens, but because I don't want it to be over! I like thinking that the series will go on forever. Well, considering a huge chunk of my favorite titles have ended this last year, I should just get over it, but this was one of the worst when it came to putting-it-off-so-it's-not-really-over. Still, I did pick it up, and I loved it. I knew I would. Even though I'd seen the "twist" coming from book one, I still enjoyed it. It probably has something to do with the setting in Paris (I seriously, seriously want to go back to Paris...with Vincent :). Other than the romantic love story, which is just yummy, I particularly love the relationship between Kate and her sister and grandparents. It's so sweet, and rather refreshing actually. Anyhow, I've gushed about this series before, and I definitely recommend picking them up if you get a chance!
Have you read any of the Revenant books?
I haven't read these yet. But I know what you mean about reading the last in a good series. It's awful :)
ReplyDeleteIt is! It's like someone passed away!
DeleteI read the first one in this series Die for Me but haven't gotten to the next. However, I understand what you mean about not wanting a good story to end. Hope you get a chance to go back to Paris soon! (:
ReplyDeleteMe, too! I hope you get a chance to read the rest of these, too :)
DeleteYes! I do that, too. Actually, I recently finished reading Until I Die and have hesitated to pick up this one; after I read it that will be it. :(
ReplyDeleteI know! It's a pretty sad feeling. Hope you enjoy the last one though!
DeleteOooh I LOVED the first book, and bought the second. I havent read it yet, 'cause I was waiting for the third book so I can read them at one go. :) The covers are pretty!! I do the same thing..LOL
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy them! That's definitely the way to go--read them through in one shot!
DeleteI know what you mean, Meradeth. You never want to see something so good come to an end. Ah, the bittersweet quality of life, right?
ReplyDeleteThis is how I'm going to feel for your book #3!! I already know it!
DeleteI do that! And I get what you mean by not wanting a good story to end.
ReplyDeleteNas
I'm glad I'm not the only one :)
DeleteI have the first one, but haven't read it yet.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I want a set of characters to go on and on.
I know what you mean--I don't want them to end!
DeleteI haven't read this series yet- but it is on my list. When I get to the last book in a series I do everything in my power to read it slower so that I can enjoy it for a little longer because I don't want to say goodbye to the characters. :)
ReplyDeleteI do that too! Reading really, really slowly can sometimes help savor things. Of course, I also can'twaittoseewhathappens sometimes and that just screws up all my plans!
DeleteAnother on my TBR list! ;)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! This series rocks :)
DeleteI have not read any in this series, though I've heard of it at some point.
ReplyDeleteThey're a lot of fun, if you like this kind of book :)
