Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead is book three of the Vampire Academy series (two more to go!).
Rose’s Strigoi kills in book two further enhance her shadow-kissed state. Now she is able to see ghosts and has a physical reaction when Strigoi are near. Mason’s ghost keeps appearing and she realizes he is trying to give her a warning. Her bond with Lissa has also changed. Now she is taking on Lissa’s negative emotions which is making Rose more violent at times.
They travel to the royal court for Victor’s trial. The Queen makes her intentions clear- she wants Lissa close by so she can monitor her. She also wants to keep her away from Christian so she can try to match her with her nephew Adrian. Rose and Dimitri’s relationship also progresses, but hits a major roadblock at the end.
Mason’s warning plays out in a massive battle against a large group of Strigoi who manage to break the wards and stage an attack within the Academy. Lives will be lost or turned to Strigoi. Rose decides to leave the Academy, which is where the story ends for now.
