The book trailer for Melissa de la Cruz's Gates of Paradise, the seventh and final novel in the Blue Bloods series, was revealed yesterday on USA Today's Happy Ever After! In the article, Melissa de la Cruz also talks about the novels which helped inspire her to write the series, and how it feels to see it all come to an end after so many years.

If you haven't had a chance to get to the bookstore yet and pick up a copy of Gates of Paradise, I hope you do soon! I anxiously rushed through reading the book as soon as I had a finished copy in my hands, and my heart still aches from all the feelings I have seeing the Blue Bloods series end. It truly is an epic conclusion that's been years in the making! 

I'll be writing up a review and posting it hopefully in the next week or so, but in the meantime, enjoy the book trailer!

Summary (from Goodreads):

Schuyler Van Alen is running out of time. The Dark Prince of Hell is storming the Gates of Paradise, intent on winning the heavenly throne for good. This time he has his greatest angels by his side, Abbadon and Azrael—Jack and Mimi Force, as they are known in the Coven.

Or so he thinks. Even as Lucifer assigns Jack and Mimi the tasks of killing their true loves, the Force twins secretly vow to defeat the Dark Prince once and for all. But how far will Mimi and Jack go to conceal their real loyalties?

Meanwhile, former vampire Bliss Llewellyn has joined forces with Lawson, the greatest wolf of the underworld, to free his people from their imprisonment in Hell. As they struggle against impossible odds, an ancient message, woven into the very fabric of time, reveals just how much depends on the success of their mission.

Lucifer seeks the key to the Gate of Promise, and when Schuyler is taken captive and delivered straight to Hell, she must make an unthinkable choice—the same one the archangel Michael was forced to make during the Crisis in Rome. Will Schuyler find the strength to do what he could not?

The epic, heartbreaking Blue Bloods series comes to a close with this final novel about staggering courage, unbearable sacrifice, and the immortality of true love.
