Gr’s Summary
In the aftermath of a battle that forced Ruby to flee the safety of the guardian angels, she settles into a small town, hoping to blend in and forget about the ones she loved. It isn’t until Hunter stumbles across her working in a bar and a well-timed email from Ivan Aleksandrov that she realised she could go back to Sage Sanctum—for a few days, at least.
Out for revenge, Lucian will stop at nothing until he has Ruby for himself, but he isn’t the only one that needs her. The council, a group of gods/goddesses have a mysterious hand in Ruby’s return to Sage Sanctum and Mr Aleksandrov is eager to find out what it is.
Destroying Lucian is the least of her worries when Ruby comes face to face with Eli De Luca, the love of her life. It seems her departure has affected him more than she thought it would, but his frustration with her isn’t strong enough to hide the electricity that crackles relentlessly between them.
Determined to end her very real nightmare once and for all, Ruby fights the biggest battle of her life, one that affects not only her, but everyone involved.
The Way I See It
This book was like an amazing, wonderful, suspenseful, glorious, magnificent, continuation of a great series!! There was never a dull moment, as y’all know, I've LOVED this series so far! The trend continues people! :) All of the character growth stays in place. There are zero regressions, everyone as developed nicely, the story is vivid, and full of intrigue. :) If you're a fan of edgy YA or paranormal, I highly highly, recommend this one! It has several nice twists that keep you guessing, and yeah there are still startling revelations! SHOCKIN! After book 3 in a series, we begin to experience a lull, WELL. NOT. HERE.
S-hadows of the past find Ruby, threatening her solace and reprieve. Her friend, now enemy will seek her out for his own gain.
A-live, Eli and Mila, both pieces of her heart are nestled away and safe. All of the sacrifices Ruby has made, she has done so for these parts that make up her heart.
L-ove, time apart has not affected their bond. Eli and Ruby truly love one and other, beyond time and distance. A love like this will threaten all that everyone knows.
V-ision, for a future, a cure, Ruby holds the key. Heelian and Goddess, the first warrior of her kind, she won’t stop until she finishes what she started, at the end of Sun Kissed.
A-mends and promises made, between friends, between lovers, now is not the time for jealousy, now is the time for action!
T-rap, using Ruby’s love he will lure her to him. Plan in place, Lucian will stoop to a new low to ensnare Ruby.
I-ndecision, left with the ultimate ultimatum, Eli makes a decision that has dire consequences. For Eli the alternative could have caused sheer agony!
O-pportunity, at life, a new begining, a promise is made, he loves Ruby, and he is determined to make her understand that she feels the same about him.
N-o regrets, Ruby has come a long way, she holds the key to a new dawn for her kindred, she will do what it takes to offer second chances and renewed life to those in need! Even her horizon with Eli shows promise.
LOVED THIS ENDING!!
WHY SO MUCH RIA?
I’LL TELL YOU!
FLIPPING AWESOME! Every one was happy! WAIT! I take that back, My Fav’s were happy! Ms. Madi leaves the perfect blend of questions unanswered, and general turmoil running about! The ending wasn’t all unicorns, and pots of gold, but there was a certain sense of relief. At the same time there are some things I CANNOT wait to find out! I’M MOSDEF continuing this series. If you’ve started it, I know you will be following it also, if you haven’t (and you meet the criteria) shame shame shame on you!
My Fav’s
Ruby
Total super Heelian/Godess hybrid BADA$$! Grade AA Jumbo! The buck stops here. Ruby floors me in Salvation! She has grown so much! All of her potential. I’m so glad she has embraced the person I knew she could be! A fierce and loyal friend, Ruby wears her heart on her sleeve, she will defend what's hers until the end.
Eli
HONEST, sexy, committed, loving, supportive, generally amazing to be around... Duh! Oh, Did I mention sexy? Whew, I’d hate to miss that one ;) Okay there are several occasions where I could see any one, other than Eli making the wrong decision. I’m so GLAD there is no one else! Eli is the ultimate warrior and I’m beyond excited to see where their story goes!! :)
My Rating
4.5 Bartender, Charmed Ruby, E-vite, Council, Final acceptance, Possible Cure, Secret weapon, Pile of dust, Never letting go filled stars! Start this series! The books are fun and they suck you right in, never letting go! A New FAV OF MINE!!
