Book Review The Lost Saint by Bree Despain
Oh how I enjoyed The Lost Saint! As I've said before, I'm not always a fan of the second books in series, as the characters sometimes make choice (that I know the need to make) that make me cringe and more often than not, it breaks the main character and it either breaks up the main love interests or leaves their relationship in jeopardy. This sequel has all that and more. Not only does Bree deliver a darker journey for Grace to take, as she learns to control her inner wolf, but she throws in a few twists and leaves me wanting a whole lot more with her ending.
I really liked that The Lost Saint picks right up from where The Dark Divine ended, and takes right off. What I enjoyed most about this sequel is how much Grace has grown as a character. She's not the good little preacher's daughter who sits on the side lines and pretends nothing is going on. She is on the hunt to control her powers, save her brother and the one she loves. There's romance, more history, a darker plot, fantastic plot twists that kept me guessing at who was behind the new evil that's roaming the city streets and action. Mix all these great elements with some fantastic new characters, and I was hooked.
Oh yes, the new characters. While Grace has found her inner strength, she has yet to get over little insecurities she has with Daniel. Katie Summers, the new character (whom I feel so honored is named after me) just might feed upon these insecurities and may or may not shake things up just a bit between Daniel and Grace. She's not the only one. Enter into the picture the hot new mysterious Talbot. Is he or isn't he out for Grace!? What's Jude's role in all this? Is he really out to protect his sister or save himself? That's one of many questions you'll be asking yourself until you get to the every end of The Lost Saint. Let me just say the ending will make you realize that nothing was predictable with this sequel.
I'm really looking forward to the next book! There's so many answers I need and I want to know what happens next. In the mean time, I'll enjoy re-reading The Lost Saint. I definitely recommend pre-ordering this book

The night before eighteen-year-old Eve’s graduation from her all-girls school she discovers what really happens to new graduates, and the horrifying fate that awaits her.
