When Violet Eden loses the key to the gates of Hell she is forced to make a choice that carries apocalyptic consequences

When you're hanging off the edge of a volcano, how do you make the most important decision of your life? For Violet Eden the decisions between right and wrong are getting harder and harder. Because apparently being a half-angel Grigori doesn't always make you right.

Where is the good in having to choose between the life of her best friend and saving humanity? How does she balance a soul-crushing need for her Grigori partner, Lincoln, and the desire to keep him safe at all costs? And what if the darkest exiled angel of all, Phoenix, isn't as bad as she thought?

Both sidesâ??Angels vs. Exilesâ??are racing to decipher an ancient scripture that would allow anyone banished to the Underworld to return. And at the very center: Violet. She only has one chance to make the right choice...

With the scriptures in hand Violet has a terrible decision to make, hand over to Phoenix the instructions to opening the gates of Hell or risk the life of someone she cares for. But after the first failed attempt to hand over a dummy copy to Phoenix, Violet is not willing to risk anyone's life. So, with the scriptures now in Phoenix's possession Violet and her Grigori friends are now on their way to Greece to try to prevent the end of the world, but they don't go alone.

With her every move being watched by both sides, and her soul connection to Lincoln becoming increasingly more painful then pleasure the more they are together, the thought of taking out Phoenix was becoming ever more an option to her, despite what it would mean to her own life. But there is more then just her relationship with Lincoln and her connection with Phoenix to worry about, there is also the thought of what she will tell her father when, or if, she returns home.

Emblaze fires her soul, torturing Violet for denying it the one thing she wants so badly but will never have, Lincoln body and soul. But while she and Lincoln struggle with a true love that can never be, Phoenix struggles with a love that never really was. Rejected and scorn, Phoenix's revenge will be enacted on the world through the resurrection of Lilith. But if Lilith is returning she is not doing so alone. An unashamedly romantic story that is hard to resist. ( )

Let me just start off by saying that this is my personal opinion & in no way saying others should or shouldn't feel this way nor am I saying anyone shouldn't start, continue on, or finish this series.

This book for me was not great at all. It took me two weeks to read this book where the other books only took a few days, although Entice did take me a little longer to get into, but once I did, it only took me a few days to finish but in total, it took about a week..

Now, normally, I am not one to struggle through a book, but the only reason I did so was because I do love the series otherwise...And plan on continuing..But I was so frustrated with over done situations,long drawn out "scenes", overly explained situations and sometimes, things being repeated when it shouldn't have been.

Yes, there were many parts that I enjoyed and liked a lot but the situation between Violet & Lincoln was so over done in the book that it just drove me nuts...I had started this book back in May, put it down then started it again close to the end of June. Just for it to take another two weeks to get through...I had to skip a chapter and about 10 pages in the next one..

The Violet/Lincoln situation, okay, I understand, they have to fight some "feelings, especially after what happened in Entice but sheesh, come on! Almost the entire book talking about it? That could have been cut in half! To say I am a little frustrated is an understatement! lol...

Now, was it the worst I've read? NO! It wasn't the best but definitely better than many books I have read.

Again, I repeat, I do love this series, but it just so happened that this particular one in the series wasn't her best for me personally...

But I will continue on to Endless and just hope its much better...

I hate that I was so frustrated with it...Because this is one of my favorite series yet!

I love Lincoln, oh boy, do I love Lincoln! And of course Spence! Spence is just amazing & funny! Great heart! I do love the whole team, even Onyx & Dapper! lol...


Still can't wait for Endless in the States! :-) ( )

This book was a whirlwind of emotions, between Lincoln and Violet, and Phoenix and violet. Not to mention all the sacrifices and the fact that violet was ready to die when she was hanging over the edge of a cliff. When Lincoln finally confessed his true love for her just to save her had me in tears!! When Evelyn came back I was completely shocked and with the cliff hanger at the end made me want to cry! This book is amazing it was hands down the best out of the 3 I have read so far. I NEED the 4th one!! ( )

I'm really enjoying this series and this book was another nice step forward in the plot. I'm wondering how many more books there will be in it though. So far, there are very good reasons why the love interests can't come together and the plot is interesting enough that I don't mind reading through, but I'm hoping that the next book will at least start to resolve things.
