Violet Eden thought she was getting things under control. Then all hell breaks loose-literally.  In the war between angels and exiles, she's about to face the biggest baddie of all time. Except she's not nearly ready.

But death is not the worst thing she will face...

    I don't think a book has ever made me such a nervous wreck. I let this book purposely sit on my shelf cause I could not bear to read it. Oh, I know fully well what it would contain. It would have lots of action, spilled secrets and Lincoln. Lincoln. Lincoln.Plot: This plot pretty much follows the lost book so if you have not read the first of series...WELL WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?! HUH??!? GET TO IT MAN! TIMES-A-WASTING!Lincoln: Is it possible to be in love with a character? He is so utterly amazing that this guy gives me butterflies in my tummy. Every time he stepped in the page I felt so much anxiety and excitement that I smiled from ear to ear. Seriously. This guy is just amazing. The sacrifices that he makes only makes me love him even more.Ending: The ending...there are no words. I need the book. I want to read it but ahhhh! What will happen?? Too much time has past, all the hurt...I just don't know what to do! All I know is that, its amazing.Seriously go read this series. NOW!! Go. You won't regret it.

    The cover of this book is stunning! I was drawn in by the cover art alone. let me say, I believe YA novels have some of the BEST covers.

    This story is a beautiful one. There is love and tragedy it really moves you in a special way. I am A romance reader. usually contemporary romance. I have never read a romance novel that has moved me more. It is soul deep.

    I enjoyed the buildup of this novel. lots of details giving us a great introduction to chatacters without being overly descriptive. All the characters were well liked and well developed! Kudos on that.

    The mystery and build up of what is going on with Jenny is wonderful especially when everything comes together.. def not what I was expecting. and I had tons of theories. This novel really blew my mind. I told my husband I was so sad it was over. I just yearned for more from Nikolai and jenny.

    I really thought there was going to be a dumb love triangle, and I want to thank the Authors for not doing that to me! That would have been too much for me. I love the Russian period and would have liked to known more, but it wasn't what the bool was actually about so it wasn't too big of a disappointment.

    I cannot wait for the next book to come out. I know this is a novel I will read time and time again!

    i loved this book and enjoyed every minute, every twist and turn.

    This is a beautifully written book and the story line is so awesome. I loved the characters, the writing, the plot, everything about the book. it's a flight of fantasy with the main character Jenny being a little different, then there's mystery, reincarnation and lots of action.

    Review courtesy of Dark Faerie TalesQuick & Dirty: Endless captured me from the first page and kept me entertained until the very last page. The Violet Eden series is one of those stories that just make you fall back in love with reading and one that I would highly recommend to everyone.Opening Sentence: What do you do the moment your father discovers your dead mother is still alive, looking not a day older than the day she died— over seventeen years ago?The Review:Violet Eden is a Grigori, a special human that is part angel. They are fierce warriors that protect humans from the fallen angels. Violet and everyone she loves recently survived a huge battle against the fallen but at what cost? Lilith is now free and she has the Grigori scriptures, which have a list of all the children destined to become Grigori. When these children start to disappear the Grigori know it’s only a matter of time before they become extinct unless they can stop Lilith once and for all. The only problem is they have no idea how to do that.Violet seems to be the key to all their problems but her life is already complicated enough. With the return of her mother who has been dead for the last 17 years, Violet’s family life is in shambles. Then there is the undeniable yet forbidden connection she feels with Lincoln, and don’t forget her ex-boyfriend is the person who actually released Lilith in the first place. Now the fate of the world rests on her ability to tap into her angelic power that she has no idea how to use. Will good beat evil? Can love really conquer all? Or is the world doomed to a horrible fate that no one can prevent? Violet is about to find out.Violet has always been one of my favorite heroines. From the first time I met her I instantly loved her. She is strong, smart, and beautiful on the inside and out. But she is by no means perfect. She has a pretty bad temper and is pretty reckless at times as well. But her faults just made her easier to relate too. In each book she grows and the decisions she had to make in this one almost broke my heart. Watching her struggle was hard but seeing the person she become was totally worth it. If you like a kick butt heroine with attitude but a heart made of gold then Violet is totally your girl.Lincoln is as constant as ever. He is always there for Violet no matter how hard things get and I can’t help admire how strong he is. He will shape himself into whatever Violet needs and no matter what the cost is he will pay it if it means helping her. There were times when the tension between these two got a little frustrating, but at the same time it also kept things really interesting. I love Lincoln but I would have liked to see a different side to him. Out of all the characters, I felt that he grew the least, so hopefully we will get more of that in the next book.Phoenix is probably my favorite part of these books. There is something about him that is just so alluring and I can’t help but be attracted to him. He has made some terrible mistakes and hurt a lot of people, but there is still good in him. He is one of those people that is broken but you can’t help but want to fix him. His relationship with Violet is so heartbreaking and some of my favorite moments in the book were between these two. He captured my heart from the very beginning and I will forever be a huge fan of his.Shirvington has done it again. I really didn’t think it was possible for this series to just keep getting better but it has. Endless picked up right after the events of the last book and honestly the action just never stops. Everything about this series has been spot on from the gripping plot to the epic romance there is really nothing I don’t love. The characters are so perfectly done and I connected to them so much that I felt like I was a part of their story. It was an emotional roller coaster ride but one I have loved every minute of. I will admit that the ending was pretty brutal, but luckily the final book has already come out. Shirvington’s writing is so captivating and after reading this series I will forever be a huge fan of hers and will gladly read anything she writes. I would highly recommend this series to all paranormal fans both young and old. It is just one of those stories that you can’t help but love and get lost in!Notable Scene:He looked away and I saw his hand go to his face. I wondered if he was wiping away a tear.“It would be easier if I didn’t love you. Saying things like that, after all I have done…” He half laughed. “You ruin me. Absolutely and totally obliterate me.”FTC Advisory: Sourcebooks Fire provided me with a copy of Endless. No goody bags, sponsorships, “material connections,” or bribes were exchanged for my review.

    Having witnessed the opening of the gates of hell, and almost falling through, Violet is now dealing with the aftermath of that event, namely the return of her mother. But in this she is not alone, her father is also getting used to her mothers return, taking it a lot better then she is, and is also learning about her Grigori status. But to become a full Grigori Violet must travel to New York where's she will be tested, assessed and if successful accepted as one of their own.Meanwhile Lilith has plans of her own for Violet and her mother, the woman responsible for sending her to hell in the first place. With the lives of innocents held in the balance Violet can hardly refuse Lilith’s wishes and with her mother watching on, she will suffer as she has never suffered before. But she will not suffer alone; turning what was an act of love into a strategic move against an inevitable attack from the enemy that will have dire consequences for them all.Endless was how Violet and Lincoln had described their love for each other, beautiful, impossible, painful and endless. But Violet and Lincoln are learning the hard way that sometimes love is not enough. After having faced countless exiles, witnessing the gates of hell open and suffered at Lilith’s hands, in the end will they be torn apart by their own love for each other? A page turning romance that improves with every new chapter.
