I'm going to share something with you... It's something unbelievable... It's really quite shocking, but...
I liked Silver in this one.
I know. I know. I couldn't believe it myself.
It was like she was a different person or something. She gave, she protected, and she sacrificed. How could I NOT like her?
Granted, when she was given the ultimatum of 'submit or everyone dies', she should have told. She allowed things to go way too far with Tarek. That animal was given far too many liberties and Silver shouldn't have allowed it. However... I got it. She was terrified. Who can think clearly and rationally when they're ruled by fear?
I was pleasantly surprised that the author included so many side stories for the other characters. While I'm completely in love with Logan (who wouldn't be?), I liked getting a deeper insight into everyone else. Justus found his heart again, even though the woman he's chosen gives him a hard time. Adam is opening up a bit more ever since he was scarred by the bomb attack. He's not back to his old self, but he's getting there. Levi... I want a man like Levi in my life!
Right now, my heart feels heavy. Everyone suffered a loss and I'm still trying to figure out why it was necessary. Does it play a huge part in the bigger picture? Because I can't see how it can. It just feels like we're all suffering immeasurable pain to garner feels, but I'd rather my emotions were played with in order to further the story, which is not how I feel.
Ah well, I do wonder how it will all work out.
So yeah, I ended up liking Silver well enough this go round. She's in love with Logan and when she gets the chance to finally tell him... she does! I hope I still like her in the series concluding book.
No matter how much I like or dislike the characters, there's no doubt that this author's writing has truly captivated me. There was an excerpt that really spoke to me...

“You haven’t lived until you’ve met that woman who will spark your fire and turn your entire world upside down. The one who makes you reconcile with your past and become a better man. If love fades, it was never meant to be. When it sticks to you like gum on your shoe, then that’s lasting love. It’s the one you weren’t expecting, the one you can’t scrape off no matter how hard you try. It will either destroy you or fulfill you, but it will change you.

I suppose books in a series aren't meant to be read back-to-back bc you get tired of the characters easily. This may or may not be the reason I want someone to punch Silver in her immature, self-righteous face. I want someone to chain her to a FREAKING BED so that she will stop running around alone when she knows she's in danger. It's annoying beyond words. And no one is putting her in her place. In the real world, people don't applaud immature impulsivity. But in the worlds of these daft heroines, it seems the writers are either living out personal fantasies of being praised for being brash, or passive aggressively reprimanding the world for not viewing strong females in a positive light by having them overly admired for "strong" character traits in their books (which amount to arguing w/ sound advice, disobeying orders given by older and more experienced leaders only to find out they were right, taking matters in their own hands and screwing it up but magically having it work out anyway, or keeping secrets and trying to fix things themselves when it could be easily resolved by more mature methods). And the irony is that every situation her boldness has sent her headfirst into, she has had to be rescued by a male character. She hasn't gotten herself out of one single situation. I'm not sure the author realizes she is contradicting her cause. Bottom line, I'm ready to actually admire Silver rather than read about everyone else admiring her.

Gravity is the fourth book in the Mageri series. As I have gone through this series, each book has been better than the last. And Dannika Dark did not disappoint with Mageri. It exceeded every expectation I could have ever had. I needed a seat belt while reading this book it was so intense.
I experienced every emotion while reading Mageri. I experienced pride. I am so proud of these characters I have grown to love. At the loyalty and protectiveness they have for one another. I experienced fear. There are so many intense, suspenseful scenes in this book. One would just end and before I could catch my breath another would happen. At one time I thought sure I would have a heart attack. And, I experienced love. Love between the couples involved and love for one another as a family. And yes, I am also in love with Logan Cross. How could I not be!
Logan's old enemy resurfaces and he wants revenge. And he plans to use Silver to get it. And Silver is forced to make a choice. She must choose whether or not she can go along with his plan in order to keep those she cares for safe. And it is during this time that she finally realizes that she is in love and knows what she must do to keep the man she loves safe from harm. There are also several facts discovered regarding Silver's heritage and the horrible lab experiments that have been conducted. I feel like I have gotten to know these characters so well. Justus, Sunny, Knox, Christian (who I also love), Adam, Logan and his brothers, and of course, Silver. Even though Silver is the main story line, there are several side stories going on that we get to experience which adds so much more to everything.
I love the way Dannika ends her books. Even though this is a series, I wouldn't say that they end on a cliff hanger but in a super sweet way with just enough closure to get us through the wait for the next book. But also, with just enough unresolved situations to keep us coming back. I can't wait for the next book to come out.
This book does include mature content so is for appropriate age readers.

Oh so many things in this book, so many things. I laughed, cried, sighed, yelled and screamed but above all things I loved it. In this 4th book of The Mageri Series, Dannika takes us on what I believe is one of Silver's most challenging situations yet. This by far is the most emotional of them all. Dannika took a simple story about a girl who was changed into an immortal being and turned this into something much bigger. Not only is this book about Silver, but she has pulled almost all of her characters in this story. In previous books, the POV was Silver alone, but this one switches to Justus, Adam, and Logan. The different POVs were frustrating at first because I wanted more Silver and Logan but it helped you understand more of the situations and the emotions other characters were going through at the same time. Ms. Dark was intent on pulling our hear strings with this one, man oh man did I feel like she just took her hand and ripped my heart out. The dynamics have changed along with new friends and new enemies, I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
Sorry I just had to add this, my favorite line!
(Christian turned around and penetrated Slater with his obsidian eyes. "Better talk or I'll introduce you to my two best friends," he said harshly, holding up his fists. "Meet thunder and lightning. If you don't start talking, it's going to storm all over your face.")

Short Review - Calling it quits (30% read). What started out as a urban fant series has turned into a "How not to conduct relationships 101" guide.
Long review - This was never a strong series for me, but I was semi interested in the mages and the underlying story, I had a few predictions and wanted to see if I was right.
However between the last book and what I've read so far, I can't continue. None of the main chars seem to care about anything but there current relationships. Several of them nearly died and they really do not seem to be bothered that there killers are still out there.
How Silver's mind works is a mystery to me. She knows there's a group out there trying to kidnap her, yet she ignores the vamp who tells her he has stopped numerous people trying already, "Meh?"
A guy who tried to kill her, now is demanding she marry him else he is going to kill people she loves, and her first thought is, "He's a Shifter Lord, I can't do anything cause of the politics"
This is where I stopped reading, the char stupidity for the sake of the authors lazy plot is too much.
I didn't even get into her mentors bizarre attempt at courtship. At no point did it come close to plausible or authentic. The guy is suppose to be 150+ years old, I know he is a "Charmer" but you expect me to believe that he's never read a book, watched a film or even tried to normally date someone? He was a total creep and acted like a 10 yr old chasing after his playground crush. He's suppose to be an intelligent, well read, experienced and thoughtful guy. Why does he have to act like a rapist? (Why she didn't wake up screaming rape after finding herself undressed and next to him after passing out the night before sick is anyone's guess)
Every page I found myself wanting to quit as the human interactions get more and more unbelievable and baffling as to what people were thinking, and I had to quit when little progress was being made on finding and catching the evil mages, and more time was being spend setting up the next love triangle.

Silver is given an ultimatum, one that will rock her world forever no matter her choices. Her relationship with Logan is on the line and the lives of everyone she cares for...
Silver and her friends begin to uncover more secrets from the lab experiments that are behind her creation. New light is shown on her origins and what might unlock the key to her immense power.
I did have a little trouble getting vested in the first portion of this story, I don’t know if I was more upset with Silver for her choices or helplessness/acceptance of her path or that her friends didn’t notice something was seriously off. I had a hard time justifying the characters reactions.
That being said...
I am truly loving the Mageri series. Dannika Dark created a marvelous dark fantasy world to immerse our imaginations. Gravity provided an action packed, suspense filled journey for this wily band of paranormal adventurers.

Pieces of the puzzle are falling into place with this installment. I saw most of them coming. I really love it when I have a hutch and I'm right. LOL I'm enjoying listening to this series and how it ties into the other series by Dark. Some connections are through characters and others is because of the complex world and supernaturals Dark has created.
As always Nicole Poole is the PREFECT voice for Dark's titles. Love this author/narrator team so hard.

Where do I start with this book? Well ok a quote first; this quote pretty much sums up the book for me.
"Sometimes we guard people from the truth to protect them from being hurt, but by doing that we only hurt them more in the long run."
Then I will go on to say "Finally" and fans of Silver and Logan will know what I mean by that.
For me we finally see Silver grow up in this book she frustrated me at times and I wanted to hurt her bad for what she does but I totally got why she had to do it. She made me cry at one point when she confesses her love and I could have kissed her at that point. And like Sunny told her "Hold on to him for as long as you can. Cherish every moment".Or I might just steal him away from her myself.
If i could fall in love with a character any more than I was already I did more with Logan. He has always proved himself to Silver to me even if she couldn¡¦t see it. But Logan never gave up no matter how hurt he was he always knew Silver was his and told her he would always wait for her and that's exactly what he does. We do have a sort of Samson and Delilah moment but it was done for Love and I love the new Logan.
If you hated Tarek in Impulse believe me you will loath him more in this book words cannot express how much I hate this character in fact I think he is the worst baddie I have read about this year. But got a feeling Nero might outshine him in the next book.
After reading Impulse I had a feeling something was going to happen for Justus and it does but the poor fellow just can't catch a break but it was so good to see him let himself go a bit show a side to him that he doesn't show often. One of my favorite quotes from Silver to Justus shows me just how much she has grown and I really hope Justus takes it to heart and fights for what he wants I will have my fingers crossed for him.
"Don't give up,I said.Logan never did. He once said something like "anything worth having is worth chasing. If you really care for her, then you'll wait. Prove to her you're the man that I know you are. Show her."
I have to say I loved the Overlord and I hope we see more of him in the next book.
I'm not going to say much about Sunny and Knox as you will have to read to find out what happens there all I will say is Knox is a very noble man.
Once again Dannika leaves us with a Justus and Silver moment and it's a lovely one these two have a very close bond in a family way and I hope they will always have that.
We do get some questions from Impulse answered but yet again we are left with more and my head is full of them coming up with my own answers but only the next book can answer them for me so hurry up Dannika I need that book..lol
This series truly keeps getting better and better the characters are part of me now and will for a long time to come. Gravity has become one of my top reads for 2013 words cannot express how much I loved this book.

This book was… difficult to read. Generally speaking, I love angst in a romance. But I Hate the Big Secret trope. Granted, this is not a straight up romance. This is urban fantasy with romantic elements. But if we are being real, the big crux of this installment surrounds the relationship between Silver and Logan. And thanks to Tarek, Logan’s nemesis among the Chitah, things are not looking good for this couple.
I’ve said before how much I adore Logan and what a great pairing he and Silver make. But, in most books, when things look awesome, you know a giant bomb is about to drop. That bomb drops here. Basically, Tarek moves into a position of power among his people and he uses that as leverage to blackmail Silver. He can kill everyone she’s ever loved, essentially with impunity. So she must throw over Logan or watch him die along with everyone else who matters to her.
On one level I get it. Dannika Dark has gone to great lengths to show the disparity in power and the many loopholes that exist in protecting members of breed culture. Particularly those with little status. But. I can’t 100% get on board with the idea that Silver could not or would not confide in these powerful amazing allies that she has. I want a book to make me feel, and boy did this one ever. But amidst my sorrow and heartbreak was also a bit of anger and frustration for how it “had” to play out.
Premise aside, I will give props to Dark for pushing all of my buttons. I was devastated right along with Silver and Logan has everything came to pass. And on top of the problems with the main couple, Dark set up something even more crushing by the end of the book. I won’t spoil it. But from the point in which Silver erased to Logan’s last hope to that scene in the parking lot when everything was supposed to be over, to the big revelation from a secondary character… I was wrecked.
This installment was not my favorite. Though I understand why so many people give it five stars. Because it does make you feel. I just didn’t like the device by which it was done. And while I’m complaining a little, I also don’t like that every single side character has to find an HEA on page. I feel like there were so many romantic possibilities for Silver at the beginning that the author feels that she has to give them all a match before the end of the book. Don’t give me wrong, I loved what she did with Knox and Sunny. But now it’s Justus. And Adam. I don’t need every single loose end tied up in a bow. Maybe I’m just nitpicking because I got put through the wringer.
All this complaining aside, this series is awesome and I have already one-clicked the last installment. I understand why so many people have read and enjoyed these books. Even though this one was it my favorite, I care about these characters and I’m invested in the world Dannika Dark has created.

Don’t give me wrong, I loved what she did with Knox and Sunny. But now it’s Justus. And Adam. I don’t need every single loose end tied up in a bow. Maybe I’m just nitpicking because I got put through the wringer.
All this complaining aside, this series is awesome and I have already one-clicked the last installment. I understand why so many people have read and enjoyed these books. Even though this one was it my favorite, I care about these characters and I’m invested in the world Dannika Dark has created.

Want to re-read it again before review but Dannika Dark is my fav author
****NO SPOILERS-JUST LOTS OF LOVE FOR THE BOOK AND AUTHOR***
Wow I have read this book twice now and I could read it again...it was so amazingly good.
I am a big fan of the Mageri series and recommend them to all my friends and work mates and without surprise, they love them as much as I do!
The setting is described enough that you can picture each scene in the book without being overwhelmed with descriptive words and you lose interest. The focus is on the characters and their individuality and cracking dialogue.
Dannika creates characters that you can imagine grow to either love them or despise them as is meant to be. The books play like a film in my head.
Silver who is the main protagonist likable, feisty, caring and still unsure of herself which makes her vulnerable especially in this book where she is in a situation that she has no control over. Christian in this book was my hero, the way he he went beyond body guard duties was just so heroic and made me feel a little weak reading his parts- exceptionally yummy vampire. I would love to hear more stories about him.
Logan was heartrendingly gorgeous, his lines filled with love for silver were far from cheesy but totally sexy and beautiful- there are no cliches- Its so fresh and different. There were scenes of his in the book where tears were streaming down my face. Dannika's characters are so real when they are talking its like you are living it with them so I feel the emotions they do - which is all down to the superb writing style.
There was not a lot of Simon, who is my favorite character but it was right within the story. Silver missed him too! You get to meet the Logan brothers more- love Levi. Also a bit more of Remi who is a very intriguing mysterious character.
You can tell Dannika Dark reads lots of books and love stories and has created a series for paranormal romance fans in mind with so much passion and love that it spills out of it pages straight to its readers.
Cant get across how brilliant this book is I am just ruined now for other books at the moment as cant stop thinking about this book.

I'm going to reiterate a constantly verbalized statement of mine: Dannika Dark has easily become my top favorite author, and all you have to do is start with the first paragraph of her first Mageri series book, Sterling. This series never gets old, with new twists and turns in every new step in the storyline. Dannika does NOT disappoint any step along the way, and the newest edition to her series really turns up the heat and action.
If you've read any of the previous books in this series, you can easily expect action and drama, with a pinch of humor and heart string pulling sprinkled in (yes, this is an understatement). However, not even I had expected how deep it would all go. I lost count how many times I wanted to laugh or cry, or laugh and cry, or laugh then cry then laugh and cry in synch, and...well you get the point. I just can't even accurately express how much I loved Gravity. New questions have arisen, but so many that have accumulated from the last three books were answered, or at least more clearly explained. Dannika has an amazing talent to leave a bread crumb trail for her fans to follow, with little slices of cakes and bits of candy to keep the treasure hunt intriguing (and full of sugar).
I've said it countless times, but YOU NEED TO READ THIS SERIES IF YOU HAVEN'T YET! I've managed to introduce a few close friends to Dannika's world, and not one of them has shown any form of disappointment! I mean come on. You KNOW what kind of story you're getting into when the main character compares her sex life (or lack of) to the amount of tongue action she gets from her cat IN THE FIRST PAGE OF THE BOOK! Yea, it's that good. And I'm being serious.
Once again, thank you, Dannika, for your best addition yet. Can't wait for the last installment, as well as further works by you!

After loving the third book, this one was a huge disappointment. A big part of it is because it the story strongly relies upon a type of plot line that I hate: namely, the "I have to hurt you in order to protect you" type of plot. And it's not cleared up quickly, either. It's dragged out to the point where I actually stopped caring whether Logan and Silver would get back together again. They both went so far away that it tarnished the relationship to me--a relationship I really loved in books 2 & 3. It even tarnished my love of the other characters in the book because none of them figured out what was going on. It seemed too unrealistic to me after how much Tarek was villified in the previous book.
Most of the book dragged for me. I'm not a fan of these POV switches in order to watch another relationship develop. It takes the momentum away from the main story. I like Justus, but in these books I only want to see him through Silver's perspective. Give him a spin-off book or novella, but don't stop in the middle of Silver's story to delve into his.
I'm going to take a break from the series and I'm not sure if I'll read the final book. I just don't care about these characters anymore. It was rocky to begin with for me, but I got into it with books 2 & 3. Book 4 reminds me how disjointed this world and the characters feel at times.

Warning I will have spoiler tags click them at your own risk.
I can't believe this book. It gutted my heart out, ripped it out stopped on it, put it in the meat grinder and said hey let's try to put it back and make things better. Ugh.
So many people in this book. There is one the whole the,e of this book is sacrifice. I just can't believe everything that happened. There is too much but I had wanted to cry in this book about 4,000 times and I don't typically cry. I also want to know what's going on with Page there at the end I just wanted to roll my eyes so hard because her reasoning were soooooooooo annoying. If she had I do wish we didn't have so many POVs. When did that come about? We got a few in the last book but not nearly as often and as frequent as this one. Some parts were like ok I love this person I really do, but could you please send me back to Silver so I can know what's going on! Very interesting can't wait to read the next.

4.5 stars
In my opinion, this is the best book in the series. With surprising emotional depth, Ms. Dark takes us back into the world of Mages, Chitahs, Geminis, Vampires, and humans. She brings back the hunk factor and shows us there is more to the alphas than just nice clothes and protective instincts. Nicely done. More review to come.

I can't even begin to express how excited I am about this book! It killed me that I had to listen to just bits at a time because of lack of listening time. That needs to change.
Silver gets herself wrapped up in a big scheme that causes her to keep secrets and do heartbreaking things. I was so upset with her position. I wanted to yell, scream, do whatever I could to make the whole situation go away! Just when you think there is a solution and things are going to go back to normal, it is not the end. Her rescuer has just put his life on the line and now Silver has to think of some way to save him. I think that is getting to be a running theme here. Some male putting his life on the line. I think everyone has stuck their neck out for Silver at some point.
Dannika Dark hit me hard in the heart with Gravity. Not everyone survives and sometimes that is good, but other times it is bad, bad, bad. Tear jerker bad. But it doesn't stop the action happening around Silver. We learn a lot more about Silver's history and just how unique she really is.
I felt like we got two stories in Gravity. We get the whole situation with Tarek and then we also have the mystery of the experiments. The connection between the two areas was only vaguely connected. Although you know that Nero has to be involved somewhere.
We get a nice little extra nugget too in the introduction of another romance. Or potential romance. I can't say who, but their story is SO sweet and I was SO happy for them!
Gravity had me riding a roller coaster of emotions that just made this book stand out as one of my favorites of the year. This series is amazing and I strongly recommend it. The narration is good, even though there are a couple of voices that kind of grate on my nerves a little. I can't imagine not listening to it though.

Dannika does not disappoint and this is just way better than awesome. There's just not enough stars to rate this book or the whole series. I absolutely love this series. Now I'm anticipated the next series and it's going to be a torturous wait. I laughed, I cried, I was disgusted, damn...every emotion I could ever think of was there and I felt it. I related to so much of the issues that were taking place it made it so raw and real. Dannika enlightens me in such a way that I feel like this is pure therapy for me.
Thank you Dannika for allowing me to continue to see strength and never lose sight of good despite the reality that evil does and will exist.

Best one yet ! I wrote that in 2013, but 10 months later, I remembered the main points, but not all the important details. After this re-read, I still think it's the best yet and am on to Shine.

WOW!! The story is getting better. At some point in the book, I wanted to stop reading I thought this can't be happening. I'm glad I never did. Great book!!

I am a total Dannika Dark fan-girl. Every installment of the Mageri Series gets better and better and Gravity isn't the exception. Dannika emotes so much through her writing that I almost couldn't catch my breath. There was so much heartbreak and pain and in the midst of it all she still made me laugh. Just a beautiful addition to the Mageri series.
Gravity begins in the home of Silver's gorgeous Chitah, Logan Cross. The relationship with these two is palpable, flowing off the page, and boy, did I want to be some of Logan's lemon cake! Mm Mmm! Always sexy and engaging, this relationship is about to be tested and possibly severed beyond repair. Silver broke my heart along with hers throughout the journey and brought me to tears more than once.
Beyond the relationship between Silver and Logan, there was SO much character development that I have to touch a bit on it. I am crushing on Christian after this installment. He really developed substantially, more essential in Silver's life than ever, and so very selfless while maintain that sarcasm and toughness we've grown to love. A perfect balance shown for the vamp. I'm certainly hoping for a bit more Christian in book five!
Justice was less involved with Silver in Gravity but had more of his own story to follow throughout. A little love development here with a shocking twist that I never saw coming. I really enjoyed watching J struggle with his inner demons and learn how to romance a lady for the first time since his become a mage.
There was a little bit with Sunny, Knox, Adam and Simon but more minor roles this time around. The book really focused on Silver and the Chitah community as well as Justice and his relationship.
In the midst of being manipulated and blackmailed, Silver still has to uncover information about the Breed experiments and her own parentage, while discovering that there is nothing worse than losing the one you love.
Dannika Dark delivers exceptionally in this novel, showing her ability to write fluidly and honestly, baring her soul. The reader is taken through a gauntlet of emotion along with the characters and cannot help but to be completely invested in the outcome. Another stunning novel written by an incredible author. I will definitely be reading anything Dannika choses to write! xoxo!

Gravity by Dannika Dark
Review by Kris (I Heart Books)
5 Stars (more if I could)
Wow! OK, I paused for awhile after I typed `Wow!', I don't know what else to say. LOL. Let's just say if Dannika Dark started a cult, I would drink the kool aid. The woman is a phenomenal writer! It is hard to be pulled from the book to realize that the world she created does not stretch beyond the book. I can tell you with a strong conviction that I am a fan for life.
There were times during Gravity that I was MAD at Dannika. Mad, mad. I bawled more than once, and I'm not just talking about misty eyes or a single tear. No, I bawled, crazy sniffles and twisted mouth type bawling. *sigh* Oh, the crap she put me through...
***
We are all well aware that Silver attracts trouble like flies to s*** (geesh, I'm graceful and eloquent tonight), and it is no different in Gravity. She is forced into making some choices that tore me to shreds, so I can't imagine how she felt. Stuck between a serious rock and a hard spot she does things that are so uncharacteristic for her, you'd have thought more people in her life would have caught on to that fact. Everyone was pretty busy with their own things though. To that end, everyone got a bit of spot light in this installment. Focus being mainly on Justus, and Adam pops up for a few brief moments leaving us (me) yearning for some sort of resolution in his story. We did get a glimpse at what might be a clue to what will happen with him in coming stories. Dannika is a mastermind at that kind of thing; eluding to things, or leaving clues to help us piece things together in the future.
If you have re-read the series at all you have probably picked up on a lot of clues she has left ;) sneaky.
Things I look forward to in the next book(s):
Learning more about Simon
Happy-ending for Adam
Christian Poe
Lucian gives me... feelings :/ I want more on him
What was Page injected with? *Spoileryish, sorry*

Okay... so anyone that follows my reviews understands that I'm a DIE HARD Mageri fan and think Dark is a terrific writer. So prejudiced- SO. Read on anyway....
You know how you get the first book of the series and each subsequent one continues to degrade until it's just words on a page? We see it happen all the time. This is not the case with Dark's work. Like a fine wine, her books grow broader and better with the telling, each installment deeper and more succulent than the last. As a big serial reader, I just never want that book to end. If you're like me and love a series, and one that is written in multi-genres such as the following: dark fantasy, paranormal/urban romance with a dash of horror and suspense, there is not a better choice than Mageri. Further, if you like edgy adult urban fantasy from authors: Laurell K. Hamilton, Kim Harrison, Patricia Briggs and Stacia Kane... you'll love Dark's work.
Whenever a book provokes deep emotion while I'm reading I know it's a hit, a re-read, a five star, a: I'm-going-to-read-everything-by-this-author-even-if-it's-a-Math-Book. Yeah. GRAVITY is that book, that good, that: OMGosh I'm going to murder the imaginary villain, save the heroine and take up sword fighting.
Silver returns as a strong woman who believes loyal sacrifice is the superior choice, regardless of the consequence to herself. This pivotal deliberate decision, causes her world to turn upside down and every person who thought they knew her takes pause. I love the turmoil that Dark weaves into this story and the way my stomach felt in a few of the violent scenes, they're so real, I feel as though I'm in the book. It's a creepy, fly on the wall perspective that is disquieting and so vividly alive nothing can compare.
Dark had readers guessing about Silver's true origins and some suspicions I had were confirmed; I can't wait for the unveiling of even more in the final installment.

I don't know why i torture myself sometimes. i have this obsessive need to find out what happens even if I'm flaming mad at them the whole book. I skimmed a lot of the novel because I needed closure on Logan. One of the massively frustrating things of this story arc was the "substantial proof" needed to arrest a bad guy. Apparently, witness testimony of their own words isn't enough. There has to be documentary evidence as well. Does no one think, then, to RECORD these incriminating conversations??? Pretty difficult to refute the evidence when the Overlord can hear your voice laying out all the dastardly deeds you've already committed and plan to commit in the future. And for all their collective years of immortality and espionage experience, NO ONE could find a way to collect evidence of Tarek's or Nero's dastardly deeds? It just doesn't fit with the way the world was built and the way the characters have been illustrated. Also, Silver is thirty years old, and she doesn't already have enough Hollywood education to know that blackmailers are never satisfied?? Stupid.
The author can't seem to create a happy ending for her characters. If I wanted real life doom and gloom without any real hope of a happy ending, I'd just read the newspapers and police blogs. I'm glad I made it to the end of this novel. I have the closure I need on Logan's story line, and I have no more curiosity left for these characters. Bu-bye.

Words cannot describe my love for this series and even greater love for this book!! This book rocked me to my core! I've never experienced so many emotions reading one book....ever! Happiness, sadness, anger and utterly heartbroken. Silver is such a wonderful character. Loving, caring, possessive and defensive with all those she loves! Logan, dear Logan, I have fallen even more in love with you!! If only I could make him real!! Justus...WOW! I loved that we learned so much more about Justus in this book! On the outside he may be rugged and shatter proof, but on the inside he is capable of so much love and has such a huge heart!! And he is really trying to use it! There was a devastating turn of events that literally brought me to tears. It will be interesting to see how this plays in the next book. I was brought to tears many times reading Gravity. Silver and Logan's relationship had a serious down and up and they made it thru. So many ups and downs and twists and turns in this book. Dannika has taken and written something very beautiful and wonderful! I am in awe of her and so glad that I found this series a year ago.

Gravity was awsome, cried and laught like a baby!
Finally a book with a lot of justus in it and as always my fave couple S/L give us lot of beautiful momments, and the other couple(who read it knows who they are) left me wanting so bad for the next book to come out! what will happen with them? will have to wait and see!!! Who read it know that there was some heartbreaking events over the last chapters, those left me shocked, angry and deeply sad.
Hey do you think Novis will regain his compassion? It would be interesting and i know just the right person to help him.
I hated Tarek " like the fire of a thousand suns" hatred. Loved Christian and i can't wait for his book whenever it comes out.
Simon was his old self is full of awsomeness!!
Thank god these books don't end in huje cliffhangers, because i would be biting my nails off.
Loved it!!!!

Who read it know that there was some heartbreaking events over the last chapters, those left me shocked, angry and deeply sad.
Hey do you think Novis will regain his compassion? It would be interesting and i know just the right person to help him.
I hated Tarek " like the fire of a thousand suns" hatred. Loved Christian and i can't wait for his book whenever it comes out.
Simon was his old self is full of awsomeness!!
Thank god these books don't end in huje cliffhangers, because i would be biting my nails off.
Loved it!!!!

This book was simply amazing wonderful Breediful (Hehe, see what I did there?) I kept trying to anticipate the outcome of the book but the thing was I COULDN'T! A very rare occasion for me. Not only did Silver do the unselfish thing, she did the unthinkable. She did the exact opposite of what others do, just so blood wouldn't be spilled in her name! I couldn't believe it! I was in awe reading this book. And how she had to- and the- and oh you know what I mean ;-) Also, I love how Dannika Dark was so creative with the different types of Breed. I highly recommend this book to all those old enough not to make a fuss. It left me yearning for more, only to see I have months to wait. A bittersweet feeling. The world of the Breed is now alive inside of me.

Holy sweet mother! Dannika out did herself with this one. I was swept away with every moment of this book. There were feeling of anger, fear and total loss. I was even brought to the point of tears, which is totally out of character for me! As always there was not a disappointing minute when reading Gravity. Dannika brings her characters such life that you can not help but feel their ever emotion. Of you're like me and have to put the boom down for something, people look at you funny when you're talking to yourself because you're trying to figure out what is going to happen and why the character did what they just did to blow your mind.
Can not wait until Margie 5!!!!

I just finished reading Gravity and my heart is still pounding! Over the last 2 days I have been laughing, crying, biting my nails and, at times, afraid to read further for what was possibly going to happen. What a fantastic series. Now I just have to wait for the next, and I have read, the last book in the series to come out. I am a little anxious about the direction of the next book based on the story arc. I have a feeling I will need both a big box of tissue and a heart monitor!
