"Nothing could wash away the past, but this took them both there, touching a painful truth, acknowledging it."

An amazing start to reading in the new year!

This was everything I wanted and more. Honestly, Pacat is a goddess for giving the readers everything they could have wanted. Laurent, happy, laughing, and in love. Finally some closure, acknowledgement, and even forgiveness of the awful things of the past. And even hints at the future of them ruling together side by side. Truthfully, I used to get very worked up at the hate this series gets at times but if this installment doesn't prove how wrong those people are, I don't know what else will.

I'm going to miss these characters dearly, especially Laurent, who I absolutely adore, but I know I'll come to back them and this story again.
