The Pagan Stone by Nora Roberts – 3rd/last in the “Sign of Seven” trilogy.

“Shared nightmares, visions of blood and fire, and random violence plague the longtime friends and Quinn, Layla and Cybil, the women bound to them by Fate. None of them can ignore the fact that, this year, the demon has grown stronger — feeding off the terror it creates. But now the three pieces of the bloodstone have been fused back together. If only they could figure out how to use it.”
In this last book in the Sign of Seven trilogy, we follow the love story of Gage and Cybil. More than that, we follow the 3 couples as they save the town of Hawkins Hollow. Gage and Cybil’s romance was my least favorite of the 3 couples. It could just be because it was obvious that they would end up together. I enjoyed following everyone on their journey on how to defeat the evil demon. Nora provides us with characters who have great personalities and bonds with each other. The story was interesting, suspenseful, engaging, and well-plotted. The ending was climatic and symbolic of the battle between good and evil. Action packed perfect ending to a great trilogy!
“My boyfriend and I are badasses. ”
Synopsis:
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts’ electrifying trilogy comes to an end, as three men and three women join forces–and hearts–to battle the ultimate evil.
Years ago, after their blood brother ritual, Gage, Fox, and Caleb each emerged from the woods with a piece of bloodstone. Now, it will become their weapon in the final fight against the demon they awakened. Winner take all… Shared nightmares, visions of blood and fire, and random violence begin to plague the longtime friends and the women bound to them by fate. None of them can ignore the fact that, this year, the demon has grown stronger–feeding off of the terror it creates. But now, the three pieces of the bloodstone have been fused back together. If only they could figure out how to use it. A gambling man like Gage has no trouble betting on his crew to find a way. And though he and Cybil share the gift of seeing the future, that’s all they share. But Gage knows that a woman like Cybil–with her brains and strength and devastating beauty–can only bring him luck. Good or bad has yet to be determined–and could mean the difference between absolute destruction or an end to Hawkins Hollow’s nightmare.
5 happily-ever-after stars!
