Bloodrose (Nightshade #3) by Andrea Cremer 
Genre: Young Adult (Paranormal/Fantasy Romance)
Date Published: January 3, 2012
Publisher: Philomel

Calla has always welcomed war.

But now that the final battle is upon her, there's more at stake than fighting. There's saving Ren, even if it incurs Shay's wrath. There's keeping Ansel safe, even if he's been branded a traitor. There's proving herself as the pack's alpha, facing unnamable horrors, and ridding the world of the Keepers' magic once and for all. And then there's deciding what to do when the war ends. If Calla makes it out alive, that is. In this remarkable final installment of the Nightshade trilogy, international bestselling author Andrea Cremer crafts a dynamic novel with twists and turns that will keep you breathless until its final pages. 

Bloodrose is the third book in the Nightshade series by Andrea Cremer. I really shouldn't have waited so long after reading Wolfsbane to read this. I'd forgotten quite a bit about what was going on. I caught up pretty quick though, and with the exception of a few draggy parts, this book kept me entertained. Everything was wrapped up in this final book, and there sure was a lot to wrap up , but I can't think of a single thing that was missed. I can't say that I liked how everything concluded, but at least it was done well. My heart is broken though, and I really can't say much more than that without giving up some major spoilers.

Check out my reviews of the previous two books!

Andrea Cremer began writing novels after a horse broke her foot. Ten books later, she believes that horse must have been an agent of fate. Prior to becoming a full-time writer, Cremer resided in the academic world where she was a professor of early modern history. She now lives in Southern California where she enjoys writing at outdoor cafes with her Havanese, Joss, and rides her horse (a different horse!), B, in the Chino Hills State Park.
