    About this ebook

    I'm finally home after struggling through my brother's illness and death. But, home is definitely a bit different. My best friend (the only person alive now that knows my secret) has a new boyfriend; and he has a friend. Shane Maxton: bad boy, tattooed rock god, eye candy extraordinaire. He is also New York City's most arrogant, self-serving, son of a, well, a definite one-night stand kind of a guy.
    But, it doesn't matter to me because I've spent my existence looking for the love of my life, my angel. And, there is nothing that Shane Maxton can do to change that.
    A paranormal romance.

      Ok, here is where a lot of my complaints come in... I really disliked how she treated/thought of Shane. I got really, really, sick of reading how she shouldn't fall for 'that kind of guy' and how he was too shallow to have a deep thought or quote from Shakespeare. And her constantly referring to their potential relationship as a one night stand, when he'd already made it pretty clear that that's not all it would be. Sure, it wasn't likely to be a forever relationship with him, but he still made it clear that it wasn't a slam bam, get the fuck out ma'am. That got old fast, like in the first book! Secondly, the grammatical errors seemed even worse in this book, which is an accomplishment! I also got kind of sick of the same scenarios and same thoughts and the same stuff happening again and again, the book seemed to have a lot of repeated stuff.

      I also thought it lame that the Vixen4 (I think that was the girl bands name) were all so 'haz beenz' pretty... they used to be pretty, but now aren't. As if beautiful people can't be evil or bitches. I felt like the author made them 'ugly' to personify their personalities. Like we needed visual cues as to how respond to them. But, I could have misinterpreted that, who knows.

      Even with all my complaints, I still really liked the book! I loved how all the characters were consistent with their personalities and actions. No one acted out of character just to set up a scene. I also loved that this wasn't an instant-love book. In a sense it was, in that Shane recognized his strong attraction to her and his instant connection. But the story unfolded, it wasn't one of those books that within 2 weeks they're getting married and starting their happily ever after. God that's annoying. So this one was very, very refreshing in how it unfolded and simmered. Let them become friends, let them get to know each other a bit, though she didn't bother getting to know him all that well! But still, it was nice that it took place in a span longer than a month!!

      I look forward to the next book!

      Great story overall although I felt frustrated through a good portion of it. I have so many unanswered questions that maybe the Shane POV might be able to answer. There seemed to be a big pink elephant in the room that never got addressed in my opinion! The characters were well developed, I loved all the witty comebacks from Lea & Grace to the bar flies & groupies. I'll have to remember some of them for future use. Shane is pure hotness!! He definitely made my heart flutter! Grace rocks so she's made my girls who rock list. I'm also throwing Lea on the list too even though her constant "Holy (insert random words)!" got on my nerves a little bit. lol

      Whew ..... my stomach can finally unknot itself!
      That was intense. At the beginning of this book I was just going crazy wondering how was Grace ever going to find her way back to Shane. Then there's a twisted surprise. Still lots of fire burning sexual tension between Grace and Shane. I would have thrown my eReader if I could because every time they got close to sealing the deal (sex) something happened! You will have to find out for yourself if they actually ever to seal the deal I won't tell! Book 2 has a lot more Paranormal goings on than book 1 did but it's a great story.
      No cliff hanger ending!

      Awesome Quotes:

      "Ugh. My cell phone. Shitfuckphone"

      "Ummhmmm. That man just melted the panties right off me with his eyes"

      "That's just ridiculous, nobody should look that good"

      "I felt my panties melting down my legs"

      "Watch out Conner, The porn's about to fly"

      "which caused me to laugh so hard i had to , um, throw away my panties in the kitchen garbage"

      "Let me pretend to be a skittle and you can taste my rainbow"

      I Loved this book! I can count on one hand the number of books that I have highlighted on my Kindle, it's not usually something I do unless I find some quote that is crazy memorable. With Saving Grace i found my self highlighting so many funny quotes (usually from Lea), one liner's (Grace), absolutely positively sweet and/or sexy things Shane said to Grace or scenes that I wouldn't dare forget.

      This is a great read and it concludes the story so well. I love that there was no cliffhanger at the end so I didn't feel like it was necessary for another book (not that i would be opposed to one). I don't want to say too much because I really don't want to give anything away but basically I am very happy with the ending.
