![]() ![]() And that Xander’s not the only one she should’ve been worried about. But just when Xander’s attention and loyalty are about to convince Caymen that being rich isn’t a character flaw, she finds out that money is a much bigger part of their relationship than she’d ever realized. She’d much rather Caymen hang out with the local rocker who hasn’t been raised by money. She knows her mom can’t find out-she wouldn’t approve. ![]() ![]() And much to her dismay, she's beginning to enjoy his company. But Xander keeps coming around, despite her best efforts to scare him off. Because if there’s one thing she’s learned from her mother’s warnings, it’s that the rich have a short attention span. Despite his charming ways and that he’s one of the first people who actually gets her, she’s smart enough to know his interest won’t last. So when Xander Spence walks into the store to pick up a doll for his grandmother, it only takes one glance for Caymen to figure out he’s oozing rich. Seventeen-year-old Caymen Meyers studies the rich like her own personal science experiment, and after years of observation she’s pretty sure they’re only good for one thing-spending money on useless stuff, like the porcelain dolls in her mother’s shop. ![]() ![]() Grace’s deteriorating health and consequent ‘demise’ had me in actual tears (usually enough to earn an extra star right there), and the double destiny of Roman & Grace (‘sanguinisto and regalato both’ as Davies puts it), was tied up excellently and with very few loose ends. While I never did find out how it is that Grace can time-travel, and while I maintain that this trilogy should be advertised as a book in three parts instead of three books in a trilogy since none of them are able to stand alone as complete stories, I have to say that this trilogy was really good, and that the last book was my favourite. ![]() ![]() ![]() I have arrived, at last, to the conclusion of Elizabeth Davies’ Resurrection trilogy, Sanctifying Grace. ![]() |
