I love this series, and this book is by far my favorite.  I actually wanted to start it all over again as soon as I finished I liked it so much.  Gray has gone through so, so much and all I wanted for her is a good happy ending and for those who wronged her and her family to go down.  Now, things are rather complicated so I can't really get into specifics without spoilers for the series, but this particular book is about Gray in Europe.  She's first in Spain where she's in a place where they don't use their powers.  She's just trying to be a normal girl.  But then Adrian shows up and things cannot be 'normal' with him around.  In the end she ends up in Paris where we get to see the sites with her and she has some great romantic moments.Those of you who read the previous books know a bit about Adrian, but for those of you who haven't read them I'll just tell you that he's one of those guys that kind of sits on the line of good and bad. It's like a part of him wants to be bad, but yet he still has some good in him. I guess. Something like that. You just never know what to expect from him. And for me he really made this book go from really good to flipping amazing!Gray is a character that's hard to really explain because things have changed so much from the first book.  She's still fiery and bold and says what's on her mind, but she's showing some softness in this one and while it's partially because of a spell cast on her, we do see that she has come a long way to stand on her own two feet.  We also get some closure with her twin sister Charlene and I was pretty satisfied with how that all turned out.  Charlene is a larger than life character, but she's really gone through some 'changes'.  Now this is where I smirk cause really, you gotta read it, it's definitely something that will make you giggle.The romance... sigh... I wasn't sure how this one would go in the romance department and I have to say that I was blown away.  It may have partially been the setting, but really I think it's just a romance that really worked for me.  I loved how it played out and with that particular spell in place it allowed for some stuff to happen that may not have otherwise happened without major drama.  I was happy to see that drama mostly avoided and was extremely happy with the final result of it all.Nikki Jefford has created a unique series with some big twists and turns.  The magic, the witch's, the whole shebang is just amazing.  And this is an author that really deserves more recognition that she's got so far.  I'm definitely a devoted fan!  Now, all that's left for me to say is GO READ THESE BOOKS!
