This is the fourth book in the Fortuna sworn series 👏👏 there was so many twists & turns and missing pieces of the puzzle put together. I loved this book and was very excited about Fortuna and her love triangle, I love them all in there own way. I really enjoyed watching Fortuna add more loveable characters to her found family and tighten the bonds with everyone who has been there since day 1. I am running now to read book 5 I am equally excited and scared 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻.🫶🏻

Kelsey Sutton does it again with a wonderful installment in the Fortuna Sworn series.
This has to be my absolute favorite so far in the series. I love the fact that it touches on mental health and the importance of accepting who you are, scars and all.
That being said, Fortuna seriously needs to either create a RH or pick someone because I am STRESSED. I went into this one still pissed about Collith's actions, loving Laurie (because, honestly, who wouldn't?), and confused about Ollie. I ended it loving Collith again, still loving Laurie (like I said, who wouldn't?), and with hope for Ollie.
Fortuna really made progress in this book with her mental health and accepting who she is, and we finally got some answers!!!
There really wasn't a dull moment in this book. Between the action, the healing, the love, and the information it kept me wanting more the ENTIRE time. And that cliffhanger?! COME ON!!!! I need more! I seriously cannot wait for book 5, and I will recommend this series to everyone, including people who don't ask for it. This series has a special spot on my bookshelf and I'm anxiously awaiting the next one to add to it.

It annoys me to give this three stars but I would have liked to see the plot go in a slightly different direction. 

Firstly stop with all the love interests, this is partly my own preference as I don’t like triangles or squares when it comes to my romance. You always kinda know who will win and it makes the love between the characters less true in my opinion because otherwise you wouldn’t go to other guys. 

And the Oliver parts. There is a lot of those with very little happening and I caught myself skimming some parts of it because I simply couldn’t be bothered. 

I did like the immediately jumping into action from the start of the book but is slowed down a bit after the half way point.
