After trying to rescue Tianna, Vanessa and Serena are left in Nefandus as prisoners, where the Atrox plans to make them into Followers. Vanessa is able to escape from Nefandus, but Serena wasn't able to escape and is left in Nefandus. Back in L.A., Jimena tells Vanessa of an ancient prophecy that could be disastrous for Vanessa's seventeenth birthday, and now she must decide between saving herself, or saving Serena. Which one will she choose?

This is the very last book for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

This last book includes pretty much every Daughter of the Moon, except Tianna, but it is mostly told through Vanessa's point of view. It kind of felt rushed and without the details that was in the author's earlier books for this series. There are enough details to feel at least kind of satisfied, but the ending of the book is kind of disappointing. This series is still good to read, despite the bad ending, but it is not as bad as most ending books to a series. Though, I still wish there were a better ending -- like what happens to the Atrox afterwords.

Tianna has been feeling very anxious, and she has no idea as to why since she has a great boyfriend, good friends, and finally, a wonderful foster home. Even with all these good things happening to her, she still can't shake the thought that something, someone is coming after her. After two old enemies, Justin and Mason, warn her of her becoming, she definitely knows that something is wrong -- even though she doesn't know what "becoming" means. Every Daughter has a dark side, but is Tianna's dark side about to take over?

The 12th book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

The very last book featuring a separate person and giving more details on that person, the Daughters, and the Atrox. I really don't like this book about Tianna since the ending is kind of so-so and ended too quickly. :( There is hardly any guy or relationship appearances in this book, but it gives more mythology information and ties it into how Tianna came to be and things like that. :)

Since the series is about to end, it has a little bit less information about the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox, but it still gives important events that will lead up to the last book of the series.

Any more information would spoil the books. :P

Catty is close to having the Scroll, but time is running out when it is going to be displayed at the local art museum. Before Catty can steal it, she is given the Scroll, but this gift has strings attached. In return for the Scroll, she must go Nefandus, where the Atrox lives, and meet her father, who is a member of the Atrox's inner circle. He gives her a tempting proposal. Will she give in to the dark side of her heritage?

The 12th book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

Okay, another book on Catty. You finally get to meet Catty's father and find out more about the Atrox and the Scroll. This book also shows Chris's last appearance, so you find out who Catty ends up with. :( Like I said before, I like these books mostly because the author makes the males yummy. :) Oh, and I also like the books because of the mythology that's in them. ;)

Since the series is about to end, it has a little bit less information about the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox, but it still gives important events that will lead up to the last book of the series.

Maggie's time on earth is coming to an end, but before she names her successor, Maggie remembers the journey she made to get to where she is at now. Though, will she be able to name her successor before she dies?

The 11th book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

The very first book on Maggie and her past. It is actually pretty good and it gives a lot more information on the Atrox and the Daughters of the Moon than all the other books do. :) After the Stanton book, this book is my second favorite, mostly because it gives much more information on Hector and Chris. Though, *Spoiler after this* I'm wondering who is Maggie's child that it mentions towards the ending of the book.

Since the series is about to end, it has a little bit less information about the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox, but it still gives important events that will lead up to the last book of the series.

In order to change a terrifying future, Catty drops Jimena right into a gang-infested neighborhood and her past life. As Jimena runs from enemy gang members, she is caught by the police and placed in a juvenile detention center. It is there that she encounters three shape-changing sirens that want her dead, and now, her only choice is to break out of jail and go into hiding, where no one would expect her to be -- her old nemesis, Payasa. Will they be able to save the other Daughters of the Moon before Jimena's terrifying premonition comes true?

The ninth book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

Another book on Jimena. This book gives more of a role to Jimena, so that she doesn't completely disappear later on in the series. The ending is also surprising. :( Oh, well, have to read the book in order to know what happened that was surprising. :)

Oh, also, Chris shows up briefly in this book, but not that much more information on him is given. :(

As the books/series goes on, you get more information about the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox, which is good because it won't overload you with information with just one book.

Any more information would spoil the books. :P

Ever since an elderly woman helped Serena, she has been acting like a completely different person and having memory lapses. Even more than that, someone has been following her. Who was the woman and what did she do to Serena?

The eighth book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

Another book on Serena. It goes a little bit more details as to why Serena is different from the other Daughters of the Moon. That's pretty much all I can say. :S

Vanessa's sixteenth birthday is coming up soon, and she is dreading that she is getting closer to making the most important decision of her life. Through her dreading, she starts to doubt everything that she holds true and dear -- her friends, her relationship, and her identity. She then meets Hector, who is more exciting and dangerous than anyone else she knows, but will he be her downfall into the dark side...?

The seventh book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

Another book on Vanessa. It goes into more detail about her personality and how she keeps her "dark" side hidden, and she even meets a new guy that shows her that she's not all pure innocence and goodness.

This book is pretty good since the author develops more into Vanessa's personality. Also, you get to know a little bit more information about Maggie. :)

Tianna wakes up one day not knowing who or where she is. The only clue she has is a note, in her own handwriting, stating that her life was in danger. As she searches for clues as to who she is, she founds that she has the power to move things with her mind. Then she notices people following her and the Daughters of the Moon watching her, so what is her connection to the Daughters of the Moon? And why does the Atrox want to capture her so badly?

The sixth book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

It was kind of unexpected that the author added another daughter based on Selene giving sympathy to the girl, but at least Tianna had to prove herself first before she was an "official" daughter until she completed that task.

This book is still pretty good, especially with Derek and the sort-of romance between them. However, I wish there was a little bit more romance going on between them and less of the mission thing. :( Oh, that's another thing I like in this series, the guys. :)

As the books/series goes on, you get more information about the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox, which is good because it won't overload you with information with just one book.

Stanton is in love with Serena, but their relationship is very forbidden. With Stanton being a member of the Atrox, and Serena being a Daughter of the Moon, they find themselves always hiding their relationship. When their secret relationship becomes public knowledge to the Atrox, he will have to decide between the life he knows and a love that could destroy both of them.

The fifth book out of 13 for this series. It's another supernatural book that draws on legends of goddesses and other things like that.

I love this series. It has pretty good details, character growth, and explores some new and supernatural.

I really love this book so far in the series. I have read up to the sixth book and half of the seventh, and I think this is the only book that has a guy's point of view who is involved with the Daughters of the Moon and the Atrox.

Also, I totally didn't expect the ending to be like that. :( Oh, well...

I wish there was a separate book for all the guys in this series. :)
