Could have been shorter. Book 2 and 3 could have been combined. Love Sol though.

The ending I was waiting for!

After one amazing rollercoaster ride of emotions, the Grace trilogy ends in spectacular fashion and I enjoyed every moment. I won't spoil it... just make sure you read it because it's on beautiful story!!

I feel like I haven’t taken a deep breath in ages wondering what was gonna happen. It was a doozy of a cliffhanger. This book did not disappoint.

I felt so much like Grace as she still struggled with herself. She’s felt so unworthy of anything good, but we find her in this book finally able to see herself in a better light. Sol is finally able to make her understand his decisions. I love that he is patient with her. I love how much Grace loves her friends. She cares so deeply for those around her. Yes, she has made mistakes, but everybody does. I truly felt the empathy she has for those around her.

Let me tell you though, I laughed out loud and Chris and her mother. It was obvious that he loved Debra and Grace. No matter the test he was there. ❤️ He also made me cry. His standing up for the right thing... meant everything.

I just loved these characters. I don’t want it to end. I loved that they fell back on their faith. Knowing God holds your future, and that you can trust in his love and grace, is everything. That light shown thru every page.

My favorite passage is “Love is . . . love is messy. It’s trying and failing and floundering about, trying again and again. And when you give up, thinking you’ll never find it, it finds you.”

This author always manages to pull me into her stories. She is so talented. We exchanged messages because I felt this book truly reflected me at times. She is a joy to talk with, and this series is so good! It was so worth the wait!

Absolution has just made it to the top of my Contemporary Romance reads for 2020!
My heart is so happy, I feel like I’m floating in a swoony cloud... First, let me back it up a bit, Autumn Grey unapologetically crushed my bleeding heart and played on every emotion in this tumultuous journey to

It feels like forever waiting for the long awaited conclusion to the Grace trilogy by Autumn Grey, and it’s finally is HERE! And ohh this trilogy has been such an incredible journey. The conclusion picks up from that cliffhanger ending that left me hanging. However, the wait was entirely worth it as Autumn Grey gives us Sol, Grace and Levi one final time to conclude this epic tale about the power of love, faith, friendship not to mention a journey of self discovery and sacrifices.

Just like Desolate & Disgraceful, this book brings ALL the emotions. Grace and Sol’s journey has been anything but easy but in the end it’s so beautiful to watch. It was such an emotional roller coaster but as these characters grew and evolved and in the end, love always wins out. It has been, at times, a painful road to happiness but I am happy with how everything transpired and how Autumn brought everything to full circle.

Autumn Grey has done a wonderful job writing this beautiful, heartfelt and at times heartbreaking story. From start to finish, it was powerful, emotional, poignant and thought provoking. I was completely enthralled with this coming of age story and would implore everyone to read this heartwarming and beautiful trilogy.

Wow! So I have to say that when there is a trilogy, I usually have an issue with writing my review for the middle book. I am not sure why but that 2nd book almost always leaves me feeling kinda "meh".... not with Grace and Sol! Holy crap! These 2 took me through it all! ALL OF IT!!! Their HEA was totally earned and very hard fought for! He absolutely is the calm to her storm! I really could not even imagine a man more perfect for her than Sol! He is everything that she needs! And there were so many secondary characters in these stories that Autumn Grey could write in this world for a long time! Sol and Grace stole my heart at the beginning and they broke it in the middle and they pieced it back together for the end! A fantastic trilogy! I literally can not even think of anything better to say about these books and this ending. I love them! They did not disappoint! And I look forward to seeing more of them when we get to hear all about the stories of their friends!
