Gabriel, the ancient Urbat, has his influence as well. Talbot is the character that has the greatest influence, both as a romantic lead and as a teacher, but not always for the best. Each minor character affects Grace during their turn on stage, so none were superfluous. Most of the characters of the first book return for this one, some in diminished roles and some enhanced.

Can Daniel save Grace from herself and the influences of evil before it’s too late, or is he too busy with a new girl, now that he’s human?

Meanwhile, Jude has taken up with a wild bunch of Urbats who feel the quickest path to dominating mankind is by knocking over convenient stores. Daniel is constantly urging Grace to hold back, however, and the beast inside craves to be set free.Įventually, Grace meets Talbot, a hottie Urbat who embraces his darker side and eggs Grace on to do the same. This book is all about Grace’s training as Daniel coaches her from the side. This selfless act of love had the unfortunate result of transferring Daniel’s curse to her. In The Dark Divine, Grace sacrificed herself to cure Daniel’s curse. The Lost Saint digs deeper into the history of the Urbat and how it relates to Grace and her family, as well as Daniel’s, especially now that she, too, feels the seductive call of the beast to give into the power and revel in it. Originally angels blessed with power to fight evil, they succumbed to that power and became cursed. By now the secret of Daniel’s mystery is out: Daniel is an Urbat-a werewolf-a Hound of Heaven. If the first book was about Daniel’s redemption from evil, then this book is about Grace’s fall. The Lost Saint by Bree Despain continues the story of Grace Divine.
