As I expected this book would leave me near hanging off the edge of my seat. I finished it in about a day and a half. I am crazy for Maggie her writing style is insanely addictive and her vocabulary is of the scale fantastic.
In this book we are introduced to two new prospectives Isabel (sister of Jack) and Cole a past rocker and lead singer from Narkotika and a new edition to a pack and as you could say a present from Beck. Grace and Sam are finally together and the thought of Sam only being able to watch from the boundary forest is long gone and they can spend the harrowing winters of Mercy Falls together, or at least we think.
Isabel battles against her feelings for Cole and her grievance for losing her brother to a 'selective' cure and Grace battles the reemergence of a daunting illness. As her health declines her parents and doctors are left lost and confused but only Sam knows what her fate is death or becoming a wolf. Aside the obstacles of Graces parents near hatred towards Sam and disapproval of her love for him all elements are bound together with thrilling fast paced action (not guns blazing and peoples legs being blown off) leading to the conclusion that to save Grace she must become a wolf.
This book left me dreading their fate and none the less predicting the events of her upcoming book Forever. The addition of Cole is quiet interesting as instead of us seeing quiet a loved up edition of the way things pan out we have Coles dark, sarcastic and at some points comical take on things. I have read this book a few times and it does not seem to run out of excitement. There is no way that The Twilight Saga can be put face to face with this as although they both contain wolves and romance there dimensions are at polar opposites.
This books is outrageously clever and magnetic and a book I wont EVER grow tired of. 10/10
