I've felt sort of indifferent about the Wolves of Mercy Falls series. The wolves-and-humans love thing is a little out there to me and the characters seemed to fall flat in my opinion, but something made me keep reading. The ultimate ending was fairly predictable, but I wanted to see how it got there and there were some interesting twists along the way. When I'd finished the trilogy, I felt about the same as I did all along--it was entertaining, but I definitely won't read it again or even think much about it after this.

So amazing! The first two books were awesome but the third book did such a good job of tieing everything together. Although near the end something sad happens it's completely righted in the end. Everyone should read the final book of the wolves of mercy falls trilogy !!

The ending was kind of abrupt and not very romantic. It was good though.

The end of a loved series is always hard. This last books twisted and tore at me, land in the end I felt unsatisfied. I wanted a more solid ending. I will think about the possibilities of what if's "forever", LOL. The wolves so beautiful and yet so savage when in our world, are in great danger from man. Grace, Sam, Cole can't seem to find a solution. Shelby has been killing and is stirring up even more danger. She seems to hate everyone. Sam and Grace try to stay together, even with Graces shifting. The town and her parents think he did something to her. The police are called in and hassling him..does it ever end ???
You have to read it to find out.

As much as I liked the series, this book dragged for me. There were also a couple things that felt unfinished to me. Especially Olivia’s character.

I liked this book more than the second one, but my problem is that I don’t care at all about Isabel and Cole. I DO care about Grace and Sam, but their story is no longer the main focus.
The most moving scene was when Grace first changes back, calls Sam to come get her, he rushes to her only to see she’s already changed back.
The next time she changes, you would think that she would rush to Sam again, but she doesn’t! Sam seems fully committed and is clearly losing it without Grace, but when Grace keeps changing back and forth, it seems like every time she is less enthused about finding Sam. Then when they finally do get together, it’s really awkward and not at all what I wanted. It was just a huge let down.

I am glad that a cure is finally found (although I don’t get why Cole, who’s only been a wolf for five seconds, is the one to solve it).

I had to finish the series.  All 3 books were great.  I couldn't skip the last book.  It was good.

This entire series was more than I had ever expected it to be. I could not put them down. This book especially, was everything a great book should be. It holds the reader tightly, making life pass in a blur between times that you can pick the book back up and get back to the story of Grace and Sam, Isabel and Cole. It will leave you guessing and creating a world fair and perfect, the way the Wolves of Mercy Falls always deserved.

I love this series, and am so sad it's over.
