Gideon and Cordero thought they were brokering peace, but they may have just handed Cleveland to the Devil.

Cordero and Gideon are more in love than ever, but they’re also in more danger.

Coordinating the soup kitchen’s reconstruction, puts Cordero under the drug lord’s thumb. But the risk proves fruitful when he learns Stevens is dealing in something more deadly than drugs.

After four months of ignoring the search for his own cure and instead trying to fulfill a promise he made to a dying monster, Gideon is no closer to finding Kaylie. When Gideon’s curse takes an unexpected turn for the worse, it threatens more than their mission. It threatens their future.

Even with the help of their found family–a witchy nun and a ninja store clerk–Cordero and Gideon may not have enough time to stop Dane Stevens and save the soul of Cleveland before Gideon’s curse destroys them all.

------------This is book 3 of a trilogy that MUST be read in order for maximum reader enjoyment.

She is currently single and lives with her son and his two dogs, who all think they're the boss of her. They're probably right.

Thrilling conclusion

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2020

This is the conclusion of the Cloth and Stone series. Cordero has to ultimately decide what he wants to do. Gideon’s curse is slowly turning him permanently to stone. They are fighting a battle on two fronts, only to find that they are closely related. With their new friends, they are trying to find a way to both stop Stephens and to save Gideon. There is one character briefly introduced that I am very curious to know more about, the phoenix firefighter. These two have finally worked out their differences but it may be too late if they can’t reverse Gideon’s curse. Again, this is not a light series but that makes it no less enjoyable. The characters are well written. You really just get a glimpse of the world these authors have created however and I would be very interested to maybe see more about this universe.

Great finish to the trilogy

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2020

I've hit a few series lately where all the volumes were fantastic and then the last one seemed a bit rushed and kind of fell flat for me. I was worried about that here, because I have loved this series so much. Thank goodness I need not have worried. This book is as strong as the previous ones, maybe even better. I loved the new characters that showed up to help our guys (would love to see them get their own books!). The plot was resolved in a completely satisfying manner and the characters continued to develop and grow. This author team knows exactly how to build a world and characters for it that continue to surprise through multiple volumes. I hope they continue to write series for a long, long time to come as they will be one-click buys for me.

Wonderful Conclusion to the story

Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2020

Another fast paced addition that concluded the Cloth and Stone Series.

Gideon and Cordero are back and stronger than ever, especially with the help of Sister Jeanne and Ted. Together they search for Kaylie and discover even more paranormal and supernatural people living in Cleveland. Dane Stevens continues to be up to no good... running for mayor and nixing the competition. There's magic afoot and the only question is who will win. A well-written mystery that kept me interested right to the end. I truly enjoyed this series although the stretch to three books took me out of the running for loving it. The characters were unique, each with their own quirks, strengths and weaknesses, and I loved the supernatural and paranormal world these authors have created.

Satisfying Conclusion

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2020

This is the conclusion to the Cloth & Stone series (book 1 & 2 must be read prior). The authors did a great job of wrapping up all the loose ends and giving a very good ending. Cordero and Gideon continue to fight against Stevens, their self doubts, and Gideon's curse. Stevens has declared war on them and everyone is in danger. It is action packed and with more twists that keep you on your toes. Especially love all the interesting paranormal characters that are introduced (spin off?). Kaylie and her "I can do it on my own" attitude" did get on my nerves but not enough to distract from the story. The MCs Cordero and Gideon continue to develop and grow, silencing their inner demons and allowing their love to strengthen. This made me very happy since their self doubt of how worthy they were for each other was fustrating at times. But the authors did not prolong it and kept you hooked with the twists they will throw in, lol. I recommend this series. It definitely kept me hooked through out.

A Fitting End

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2020

A fitting end to this series. Cordero, Gideon, and their friends are in a race against time as they try to deal with the Drug Lord Dane Stevens while also figuring out how to break Gideon’s curse before it’s too late.

This book wrapped everything up pretty nicely and gave a satisfying conclusion. I wish we got some more background info on Ted and Sister Jeanne since their pasts seemed important to all of the connections they were pulling in for help, but I guess their stories will get told in upcoming spin-offs. I was also still annoyed at the lack of communication between the MCs but it was much less than in the previous books and didn’t last as long.

Overall a satisfying read, if a bit frustrating at times.

This trilogy was very fast paced but enjoyable to read! After everything these men have been through they deserve the happy ending they get! Their lives couldn’t be anymore different but they are perfect for each other! This was a really good ending to the trilogy! 😀😀
