Grace Divine is the daughter of Pastor Divine. Her older brother, Jude, is as close to a saint as a teenage boy can be! (He volunteers at the shelter three days a week.) Their family is about as perfect as they come.
But they have a dark secret. Three years ago, Daniel, Jude's best friend, disappeared, and Jude came home covered in his own blood.
Now, Daniel is back and Grace is torn between her love for Daniel and her love for Jude. Caught in a web of lies and mystery, Grace doesn't know who to believe or if she can save Daniel.
One thing she does know for sure, is the answer might mean losing her soul.
I was so intrigued by this story. I didn't know anything about it (the book description is deliciously enigmatic), and I hadn't read any reviews. I'd only heard it was good. And boy was it!
The writing is pointed and realistic. The story line jumps from present day to memories, but it's done seamlessly.
I don't want to give away too many secrets, but there were a few times I thought the love story and plot were slightly Twilight-ish, but it worked. I also loved that Grace and Daniel had a history and it wasn't love at first sight.
I'm so excited to read the second book in the series!
