I’m so sad that this series is over but boy was that the perfect ending! I found myself unable to stop reading and thought it was the best book of the whole trilogy. Emilia’s arc finishes in such a satisfying way and the romance was top tier.

Finally read the last edition in this series!! This book was full of big reveals and lots of spicy scenes. I prefer reading about the chase, so this book was not my favorite of the three. I also felt confused often between
Emilia secretly being a goddess? Normally magic isn’t hard for me to wrap my head around but I can’t grasp that the first book and her memories of her life as a witch were lies. I also found Vittoria confusing as a character and could not figure out her motives and whether she was evil or not.
So much happened in this book that I felt like it lost the plot about halfway through. I may need to reread to understand it better but it started to feel like things were just happening to give Emilia something to do. While reading, it seemed like the ending was prolonged, although I did enjoy reading about the two ceremonies. I mostly just miss the passion that came from the first two books where they didn’t completely trust each other. Them always calling each other “husband”, “wife”, “my love”, and Emilia suddenly thinking he was the greatest gift to mankind. I missed the tension!! I wanted Wrath pushing her to be her worst and Emilia drooling over his darkness. They seemed much too nice by the end, not like the
King and Queen of Hell itself.
Anyways, I enjoyed this series! Before reading this last edition, I had no interest in the other Sins’ stories, but I would potentially be interested in reading them now. I would love to see more of Emilia and Wrath being the fearsome couple I know that they are.

This was a good wrap-up on the trilogy and included a lot of what I liked about the first 2 books (all of the different kingdoms of hell, the different characteristics of the demon brothers). BUT it also included even more of what I didn't like about the first 2 books (there is literally *so much* that is going on and I wanted the book to just pick a lane). ⬅️🪧➡️

Emilia really comes into her own in this book and becomes the main character of her own story, and it was great to have her relationship with her sister fleshed out. There's also some great 🌶️ between her and Wrath!

However, I wish there were more books in this series that would have allowed major, major plot points to get more than just a paragraph of backstory and explanation
the sisters having their own entire kingdom, their mom literally being in Wrath's kingdom but she just always happens to never be home so we get barely any interactions with her
. Instead, the book concentrated too long on sub-plots I really didn't care about
the half-werewolf general going missing / being murdered? Literally could not care less.


It was so fun getting to jump in and explore this world, and that was ultimately the thing that kept me coming back for more - but I felt like there was so much more potential. Overall, I'm glad I got to spend time in this colorful kingdom for so long! ✨

I loved the conclusion to this trilogy. It had the perfect amount of action, suspense, banter, and spice.
