The finale of the BELLADONNA trilogy focuses on Blythe Hawthorne as she has to navigate an unexpected marriage to Fate himself, a man who is her opposite and still in searching for the reincarnation of his previous wife.
The relationship between Blythe and Fate is the heart of this romance novel, with their grumpy x sunshine personalities and spitfire banter making for an entertaining read. They truly do not like each other for a good portion of WISTERIA, their relationship growing as secrets of Blythe’s past are revealed and further drama ensues.
This is where the book shines, the chemistry between these two undeniable. The mystery of Blythe’s past is also intriguing, though there were a couple twists in the second half that seemed to appear out of the blue. I may need to think more on how I feel about them, but I didn’t quite expect them and though they amped up the stakes, I didn’t find them to quite fit with the story as a whole.
That said, WISTERIA pulls on the heartstrings and has an ending I deeply enjoyed. Grace’s writing is excellent and she creates a wonderful gothic romance atmosphere. I’ve really enjoyed this series and I recommend this to readers who like a complete gothic fantasy romance series!

What an end to this series (well…until the novella drops 👀)! I had the best time with Wisteria from start to finish. Being inside Blythe’s head was such a treat; she’s fierce, witty, and refuses to bend to anyone, even Fate himself. And speaking of Fate…dare I say I might love their pairing even more than Signa and Death? The chemistry, the banter, the yearning, it’s all there!
Adalyn Grace once again gives us that signature gothic darkness, but it’s balanced with humor and lightness that makes you grin even as the shadows creep in. I adored the fox motif running through this book (my favorite animal, so bonus points!).
While the ending has been a point of debate, I personally thought it fit the bittersweet, haunting tone of the series. For me, the last pages left me emotional but satisfied, even if I’m desperate to see how the upcoming novella Holly will tie everything together.
Wisteria might just be my favorite installment yet. 🖤🌙🦊
