Eighth Grave After Dark
(Charley Davidson, #8)
By Darynda Jones
With twelve hellhounds
after her, pregnant Charley Davidson takes refuge at the only place she
thinks they can’t get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent. But
after months of being cooped up there, Charley is ready to pop. Both
metaphorically and literally since she is now roughly the size of a
beached whale. Fortunately, a new case has captured her attention, one
that involves a murder on the very grounds the team has taken shelter
upon. A decades-old murder of the newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in
the shadows is almost enough to pull her out of her doldrums.
Charley’s been forbidden to step foot off the sacred grounds. While the angry hellhounds can’t traverse the consecrated soil, they can lurk just beyond its borders. They have the entire team on edge, especially Reyes. And if Charley didn’t know better, she would swear Reyes is getting sick. He grows hotter with every moment that passes, his heat scorching across her skin every time he’s near, but naturally he swears he’s fine.
While the team searches for clues on the Twelve, Charley just wants answers and is powerless to get them. But the mass of friends they’ve accrued helps. They convince her even more that everyone in her recent life has somehow been drawn to her, as though they were a part of a bigger picture all along. But the good feelings don’t last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy, mixed-up, supernatural life….

My Review
I don't want to give anything away from this book so this review will be short and sweet.
I have to tell you that this series just keeps getting better and better. Each book brings more exciting and surprising twists and turns.You'll become addicted, like me.
Your questions from the last book will be answered. ^_^
Prepare yourself for an emotional rollercoaster, by the end of the book I was blubbering like a baby (seriously make sure you have a box of tissues *sniffles*), but I was also in shock with how it ended, I was so NOT expecting that to happen!! Darynda has done a brilliant job with keeping us guessing and on the edge of our seats.
I NEED the next book NOW!!!
If you haven't read this series yet than I highly recommend it. You'll fall in love with the characters and go on a journey you won't ever forget in a heartbeat.
Charley Davidson is not your average Grim Reaper, she's so much more than that!! ^_^
