Giveaway : Forever by Maggie Stiefvater

The thrilling conclusion to #1 bestselling Shiver trilogy from Maggie Stiefvater

then.

When Sam met Grace, he was a wolf and she was a girl. Eventually he found a way to become a boy, and their love moved from a curious distance to the intense closeness of shared lives.

now.

That should have been the end of their story. But Grace was not meant to stay human. Now she is the wolf. And the wolves of Mercy Falls are about to be killed in one final, spectacular hunt.

forever.

Sam would do anything for Grace. But can one boy and one love really change a hostile, predatory world? The past, the present, and the future are about to collide in one pure moment - a moment of death or life, farewell or forever.

    Hi Tynga!

    Thanks for the chance to win a copy of FOREVER! :)

    The one thing that I love the most about Maggie's series is the fact that the wolves shift according to the weather!

    I have loved Grace and Sam's story from the beginning. My favorite aspect of the series is the fact that these two people have defied the odds to be together. They are so meant to be together and they do what ever they have to do to stay together. To me that makes for a fantastic story. Of course they have obsticles but they meet those obsticles head on and defy expectations. Maggies wolves have made me see that there is more to life than just my love of Vampires. Thanks so much for the oppurtunity to win such a prized book.
