It is official, each book in this series gets better and better. I just loved this book. I do not know how I got so lucky as to get an ARC for this book, but I am so glad I did. I am not sure I even know where to begin. This book had so much awesomeness. I am definitely buying this book once it is available in a bound book. Yes, I got an e copy arc for free and I loved it enough that I am going to pay for a copy. I loved it that much.

I was given an e-copy in exchange for my honest review.
This is the third book to The Dream Series. Book 3 starts just where book 2 ended, in the middle of all kinds of chaos. If Alexi thought he was in a mess before, just think how it will be when he finds out that his son is the Chosen One? Much less what will happen when evil finds out? Lucky for Alexi, he has friends and a mom that have some tricks up their sleeves. If it weren't for them, there are a few times that Alexi may have been in so ...more

The third book in the Dream Series, 'The Chosen One' was my favourite. The characters were written in depth and the story progressed nicely. There were some really great moments in this novel and the suspense kept the pages turning. I loved the way the author revealed the secrets and history of the characters and how everything all came together. My only grievance was that the story ended rather abruptly. Does this mean there is another to come?
This is the third book in the Dream Series and they should definitely be read in order. This book picks up at the exact point book two ends. Newly turned Maria has turned on her best friend Cassie and drained her dry. Alexi now has to face a future without the woman he loves but knows he has to stay strong for the sake of his young son AJ. As if finding his wife dead is not enough Alexi has to come to terms with the fact that his son is The Chosen One, the one who is the giver of life.

The Chosen One starts immediately where Be Careful What You Wish For ends.
In The Man of My Dreams you read about Alexi and Cassandra’s beginning. In Be Careful What You Wish For you learn about an unknown history that is beginning to wind around Alexi and Cassandra, tightening ever so slowly and in The Chosen One all the roads converge into a grand battle.

The Dream Series continues with The Chosen One. What was thought to be a fable turns out to be true when Alexi finds that his son is the Chosen One. Now he must find a way to protect his family and keep A.J.’s role a secret.
I have really grown to admire Alexi, as I learn of all he has been through. Of course, he wants to hold on to his humanity, but we also get to glimpse his more feral nature. I am also glad that Quintal has brought his maker, Chloe, into the story and developed the relationshi ...more

Another awesome read!
I love how each book in this series keeps expanding on the unique historical aspects, the element of magic and now a little bit of the devil. So these books are not just about vamps but so much more.
The love and passion Cassie and Alexi show towards each other is still sweet and how they manage to live a life as normal as they can while fighting for their lives.....is just wonderful.

My Thoughts:
Another wonderful ending, not as cliffhanger as the other have been, but still it leaves you wanting more. I was still shocked until the end and my reaction was... Whoa! Didn’t see that coming. Then this is just me. I loved the chapters every ten percent. My reading habits are weird, I know, I know.
The Review:
The story has added to the shock factor. Now not only vampires and witches are in the plot, but ghost, demon children, and a certain dark figure. I never saw that coming and I w ...more
I was given this book in return for an honest review. This is the third book in the Dream series. Alexi is back and having to deal with a lot more than food.

Alexi has found out his son is the Chosen One, he can give life, is developing telepathic powers, is set to be uber powerful as he grows, and all of this needs to be hidden. Ever since she was brought back to life, Cassie has been having horrible visions. Will

Well another exciting read that held me in suspense... The Chosen One, book 3 in the Dream series began where book 2 left off, with lots of drama and intrigue.

Review from book set...
First off, I would like to say that I am not usually a big fan of books that have rape and molestation in them. I will say that this book does not dwell on the subject and the scenes are brief. On to a better note, I love the concept of a hero vampire. I really loved this book because it gave me the back-story from the first two books. Little A.J. is such an awesome kid so far. This series gets better and better with every book.

Finished this third book by Gladys Quintal in record time.
"The Chosen One" grabs you by the throat from the first words and does not let you go till the last page. Packed full of action and twists and turns, this story has something for everyone who loves, vampires, ghosts, demons and everything in between..
Definitely a story I recommend to the lovers of the genre or anyone looking for a great read!

This book was even better than the other 2, and I didn't think that was possible. I really enjoyed the story that unfolded between the characters and I really really hope there is a book 4. I am curious to see how the rest of the story unfolds, as there is still plenty of story that can be told. :)

Once again....OMG!
Will there be a 4th Book? There just has to be.
In this Book the evil has been averted and little A.j. Is safe......or is he?
Evil doesn't rest so I am sure we haven't seen the last of Elizabeth and her minions.
These Books are just fantastic.....
There needs to be another!!!

I love the whole series great books
This book is far richer in back story regarding prophecies etc.
i had trouble discouvering what Nanna can do and had to take a leap of faith regarding this twist. Once I did the story flow took me on a wild ride where even previously evil incarnate characters (well one of them) came to his senses. The prophecy etc is fun and adds so much to the love story that I simply could not put the book down.
A really good vampire read with adult content.

You have a vampire trying to do good in the world by taking care of some very nasty bad guys. I am not a great fan of rape and abuse so if you have issues with this type of thing this book is not for you, even if the bad guys do get taken down! There is a little bit of everything in this book. Murder, Love, Sex, Drama, Vampires, Witches....you get the idea!
If you are a lover of paranormal then these books are for you!!!

This series just keeps getting better! In this book, some of the baddest of the bad attempt redemption. We also discover a lot more of Elizabeth's eventual master plan. Lots of thrills and chills make this installment the best yet! Love it!
wow yet again an amazing book the third in the series has yet more plot twists developing the ongoing story further, the way relationships are building are amazing well done
So far this is my favorite one of the series. It has so much more content. It held my attention good. I loved the ending. Can't wait to see where the next one picks up.
