Synopsis: 

A Prodigal Son. A Dangerous Love. A Deadly Secret.                                  Grace Divine —daughter of the local pastor— always knew something terrible happened the night Daniel Kalbi disappeared and her brother Jude came home covered in his own blood.Now that Daniel's returned, Grace must choose between her growing attraction to him and her loyalty to her brother. As Grace gets closer to Daniel, she learns the truth about that mysterious night and how to save the ones she loves, but it might cost her the one thing she cherishes most: her soul.

The book was dark, mysterious and suspenseful.

I wasn't sure how I felt about the book when I first started it. I heard many good things about it and decided to pick it up when I saw it at the library. However, I did not realize it was a werewolf book and I was a little iffy about reading it because I'm more of a vampire girl. I decided to give it a try because of all the hoopla surrounding the book. And boy am I glad I did!

The plot was fast paced and kept me enthralled. I couldn't get enough of Daniel. I was rooting for him the whole time. I was a little disappointed with what happened to Grace near the end of the novel but I'm sure it will be fixed or she will learned to deal with it in the sequel, The Lost Saint.

I can't wait to read the next book in the series, I absolutely loved this one! If you haven't read The Dark Divine yet, you better check it out!
