About the Author
Sylvain Renard is also the author of Gabriel's Rapture and Gabriel's Inferno.
More About the Author
I'm interested in the way literature can help us explore aspects of the human condition - particularly suffering, sex, love, faith, and redemption. My favourite stories are those in which a character takes a journey, either a physical journey to a new and exciting place, or a personal journey in which he or she learns something about himself/herself.
I'm also interested in how aesthetic elements such as art, architecture, and music can be used to tell a story or to illuminate the traits of a particular character. In my writing, I combine all of these elements with the themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the transformative power of goodness.
I try to use my platform as an author to raise awareness about the following charities: Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation, WorldVision, Alex's Lemonade Stand, and Covenant House. For more information, see my Twitter account.

Without a doubt this is my favorite book of 2013 and will be one of my favorite books of all time. SR's writing style touches my heart and his words always make me feel like I am being enveloped in the warmest loving hug.
The final chapter in the Gabriel series is a beautifully crafted story of our beloved couple adjusting to life as a married couple. Life is not always perfect, and I admire SR for telling it as it is and not sugarcoating a popular romance. Life throws curve balls, and sadly not everything works out for everyone. The theme that overrides in this story is that family, love and hope will help you get through anything.
I experienced so many emotions when reading. I cheered for Professor Picton (my hero), I wanted to throttle Gabriel quite a few times and once or twice, Julia; I screamed at SR at one stage (you'll all know what I'm on about when you get to it); I burst out laughing often. The Snarky Narrator is in his best form yet (but please don't tell him that as it will go to his head and he'll become even more impossible). And our dear Professor seems to have adopted some of SR's nerdish tendencies. There's even a Hitchcockesque reference to SR in passing.
Many story lines that fans often asked about about were resolved in this book. Whilst there was a healthy serving of karma dished out to some, the future of others was left open and I hope that in time there will be a future novella or outtakes that will continue their story.
Congratulations and thank you SR. This final book in the series will make your fans proud and happy .... in particular this one.

Rating: 4 – 4.5 stars
This book takes place a few months after Gabriel’s and Julianne’s wedding. Although they are in newlywed bliss, some outside lingering issues still threaten them and their relationship. Julianne is dealing with the pressures of being a graduate student pursuing her PhD at Harvard. She is still plagued by rumors about her affair with her professor and is more determined than ever to prove herself to her peers in the academic community.
I will be honest – I had a hard time with Julia in the first two books. In those, I felt she was too timid and doe-eyed. Even by the end of Gabriel’s Rapture, I never felt like she changed or grew. She gained more confidence in herself because of Gabriel, but she was still so unsure of herself. However, in this book, I finally saw her for the woman she had become. She confronted Gabriel when she disagreed with him and she stood up for herself numerous times. Although she is still a bit insecure and docile, I felt like she finally grew a backbone. This is the first time in the series that I actually really grew to like her as a character.
Meanwhile, Gabriel is battling his warring demons from his past. He is faced to confront the person he used to be and the things he did in his past that he still has yet to forgive himself for. Professor Gabriel Emerson. Oh how I love a man who is an intellectual, demanding, controlling, wears argyle and Clark Kent glasses. What I like about Gabriel is that he isn’t perfect, yet he has changed. When I met him in Gabriel’s Inferno, he was arrogant, harsh and intimidating. Nothing really drew me to him at first. However, as he started exploring his attraction to his student, Julianne, who he has a shared past with, Gabriel started becoming the man Julianne saw.Read more ›

I was able to read an early copy of this and although I devoured it, I found myself wanting. Reynard definitely wrote this with the fans in mind, but there was an element missing that we read in the two prior books. Sometimes, we have to allow our imaginations to take control of the story from when it originally ends.
There were some dangling threads and I'm very sure I know exactly who is in the new book. It's pretty easy to pick out.
A fun book, but definitely not of the caliber of the first two.

Sylvain is the master of writing woo and so I was excited about the release of this third book in the series but I found I wasn’t enjoying it quite as much as I did for the first two volumes. I feel the difference here is that the story is not about wooing a character and is not about a budding romance and the exciting thrill of something new. This is a story about an established relationship; about making new lifestyle adjustments as a newlywed couple and addressing the continuing existence of their network and social conflicts.
This story is categorized on Amazon as erotica – but it’s not. Yes, there are a plentitude of sex scenes between Julia and Gabriel – almost too many -- but I seem to recall the scenes were written more explicitly in the first two books; not so much here. They’re nice, but they’re Harlequin style and that’s not bad; it’s just not erotica.
Julia has become a stronger character and demonstrates her developing backbone in social situations and in her personal life. I enjoyed reading her presentation at the Uffizi and how she graciously dressed down Christa among their peers. I can foresee her character continuing to strengthen as she carries on her path to earning her doctorate and evolving as a new mother.
Gabriel will always be a work-in-progress type of character. His strong personality is constantly tested resulting in extreme high and low emotions. Julia is a very good ying to his yang.
It was a little tiring reading how each of them got caught up in their heads overthinking the stressful situations at hand or over fearing future outcomes, but life is like that. We all get caught up in our heads debating the right, least hurtful way to approach a stressful situation, and everyone around us gets tired of us.Read more ›
