It was an okay book. If this was the last book in the series, I'd totally be really happy for this. Not only did Monroe made Nissilum, but he also made a world for us. Definitely good. Despite the cliches and the really predictable plot lines with a lot of stupid characters, this book was still worth my four hours.

Popped that blood vessel.
So I understand that he was 'drugged' and that Luca and Ginger-Douche (I will never say that chicks name! So help me God! It is like Voldemort to me now! We don't say that shit!) didn't really sleep with eachother-..But that didn't keep me from raging till my head blew off. Luca. Dear, sweet, naive Luca. WHAT THE HELL?

First : Jane is HUMAN. She should've been the one easily pulled in by their tricks, except she actually has this thing called a brain. Luca on the other h...more

it has been a while since i read dark heart rising so i want sure if id need to recap or not, as it turns out i didnt. There were references to the previous two books that triggered as reminder which was helpful.

Really enjoyed this book wasnt as much romance in it as the others which was good if you, like me dont care for it.
The villans in this book are a creature called the vulpecula who have a thirst for revenge. Their characters are quite enigmatic and strong, perhaps more so than the two ma...more

Monroe’s back on form for her third novel, Dark Heart Surrender. In this instalment of Jane and Luca’s tale, their mortal/otherworldly relationship – and the underlying dynamics of trust and communication – are investigated with a closer examination than the previous titles.

The addition of two new characters in Polly and Ade deliver the necessary friend-or-foe undercurrent that inhabits much of DHS. Monroe’s inclusion of these characters is vivid and compelling, though not entirely without a cer...more

I am feeling emotionally distraught right now most probably because this is the last book in the series and the last line broke my heart in a wonderful way.

That our hearts were entwined through darkness and light...


It feels like forever ago that I read the first and second book. I fell in love with the characters throughout the series even though at times they did make stupid decisions but their flaws made me love them even more.

DARK HEART SURRENDER started off slow for me, it didn't entrance me...more

I had read the first two books in this series (Dark Heart Forever and Dark Heart Rising) and thought they were fab so I was looking forward to reading this one. Part of the reason I love this series is because they are not just based on one supernatural creature but lots of them – werewolves, vampires, witches, angels and shapeshifters.

I definitely enjoyed this book as much as the previous two, it was written in such a way that I just couldn’t stop reading. Every page kept me interested and left...more

At first, I think it must be said, that I was a little disappointed with this instalment in the series. This, though, is not because the story in this book is uninteresting, but rather because the story doesn't really lead on from Dark Heart Rising. The only thing that is continued from the previous book is Jane and Luca's relationship, but I was hoping that the storyline would also be developed and continued.
I thought that Raphael's story in D...more

Lee Monroe's enjoyable trilogy comes to a close with 'Dark Heart Surrender'. I was looking forward to reading this one and finding out whether or not Jane and Luca would get their happy ending. The two have had many ups and downs throughout the series and obstacles have constantly been put in their way but regardless of that it's always felt like they were destined to be together.
Two new characters are introduced early on in the book, a brother and sister pairing called Ade and Polly. There's a...more

Apr 19, 2012 Tina J rated it 4 of 5 stars Recommends it for: everyone
Starts off a little slow, but soon picks up.
I really enjoyed this trilogy, but the ending to this particular book didn't 'grip' me as much as I'd hope.

Usually, by the time I'm on the last few chapters, I begin to feel some emotion. Whether it's anger/excitement/frustration or sadness.
But I didn't 'feel' anything.
It lacked a certain something that I just can't put my finger on.

I still give it 4 stars.....but if I didn't know any better, I wouldn't have said this was the last in the series.
It just...more

Amazing!!!!!!! I so love this book! I never regret the day I found the book 1 of this series in the bookstore! I never thought that the series could get any better specially after Luca and Jane left Nissilum. Everything was unexpected, I was thrilled and moved by the story. It amazed me how the book got me interested that fast given the fact that I am so not pro Jane and Luca from the start. The idea of Luca and Jane in the mortal world living together bored me at...more

Why the hell did I wait for this book for so long?

Okay so bad start to the book- I pretty much forgot what happened in the other two books!! Shame on me. I remembered all the *big* stuff and key events in the books. And after a while I started to remember more and more *phew* but that got me thinking (did I really enjoy the books as much as I thought I did?)



I could not for the life of me get into this book! I have no real idea why but I just couldn...more

I'm going to just put this straight out there and say – Lee Monroe’s writing definitely gets stronger and stronger with each book she produces. Like the Wings series by Aprilynne Pike, I’ve had my up’s and down with this series however, as Lee Monroe writes more books, I really feel there is a vast improvement in her work and it’s safe to say Dark Heart Surrender is definitely my favourite novel by her so far.

With Jane and Luca now together living on Mortal earth their hoping to put everything b...more

I am on the edge of whether or not to give this book a 3 and a half rating to be honest. There was just something about this book that didn't hook me in like the previous ones.

I will start with the negatives first and the biggest flaw in this book was how many typing errors there were. In an average book I expect to come across at least 3, maybe 4, tops, but this book had at least 15-20 errors. To me it is probably the worst thing that could happen to a book and it should not have left the editi...more

Luca is adjusting to mortal world now that he n jane wants to be together...but he missed his family..
But when he thinks all's right between them and no more supernatural stuff is going to come in between ..luca's history that will make them apart...more problems,illusions..come in form of two strangers..
It was good to read jane n luca's story and they fighting together to face the problem as they always have!
Is there a next book in this?I am not sure but i wouldn't mind reading :)

I had no idea that there will be a third book. All in all, I love the series, although Luca made it to the bottom of my Swoonable characters list, but that's because some other hot male leads in good books already took place. I'm not saying Dark Hearts are not good, it is. And Luca is, like, totally adorable.
Emma Wood
I enjoyed this in the end but had a shaky moment half way through where I had to push myself to finish it. It seemed to take the characters ages to see what was going on and then even when they knew what was going on they still kept bimbling around, but it picked up in the last couple of chapters and saved itself from a DNF.
Rose
The book was good, but I decided to only give it 3 stars, because although I enjoyed it in the end, i spent a lot if time being frustrated over the evil people, particularly at the beginning since it took the main characters so long to catch on to what was going on. Also feel kind of betrayed over a certain something that happened during the story, which somewhat diminished my view of one of my favourite characters of the series.
Lodyram
Good saga the only thing that did not convince3 me is that there are a lot of stories that did not ended one example is the Gabriel story I am still curios abaut that or what hapened with sorin. It was good but it could have been better
Tia
I certainly didn't mind this book. I thought it was a bit slow at times and I hated the bad guys in this novel with a passion. I am super glad it worked out with Jane and Luca though. It's true, they are fated.
Emilli Lee
Amazing!! Even if i was upset about Luca and Jane having pretty bad relationship issues! Even though in every book they do... it just got worse somehow! I love slight relationship issues but I hate the major issues and this had major issues. BUT... I LOVED this book either way!! Amazing book and would love more from this author. :) x

Jessica
This was another great book in this fantastic series. The plot was interesting and intriguing and managed to keep me guessing. The characters were everything that I wanted them to be and it was as good an installment in this series as I could have hoped for.
Marie
Sadly I found this one no where near as good as the first or second.
Valpacka?? Naa ruined it for me. Didn't keep me interested like the other and if this is their ending then it's really bad.
