Well, this last book confused me. The previous book set it up to have this book be filled with a lot of action and just something more, but that is not what happened.

You get to learn even more about the characters and their love interests. And I think this would have been enjoyable if it made sense. I was confused as to why the entire book instead of getting ready for any sort of war, everyone was getting married, or having a party. It seemed awful convenient that they had the perfect amount of time to do all that, and then they were attacked.

I think this series would have done better as a duology, with the first book being left as is, and these last two combined into just one book. I think I would have enjoyed the rest of the series more if that had been done, rather than be a bit disappointed in how it ended. Overall, I give the entire series 3/5 ⭐️ because I LOVED the first book! It was very good!

Pros:

The story picks up where we left off with a twist to what felt like a promising hopeful end (if still a cliffhanger) in book 2. The world of the fae is greatly expanded upon as more kingdoms and cultures are introduced.

The types of magic, mythical creatures and powers are portrayed interestingly and make you want to know more about them.

Cons:

I didn’t care for the multiple points of view in book two. They made more sense for part of this book but I’m sorry, when you’re differentiating between a character and their werewolf side it’s getting excessive. You can describe that without too much trouble by saying he feels out of control or that the power of the wolf surged through him.

The book feels rushed through with a few short breaks for filler fluff rather than spending time on the adventure. It’s not like in book one with the journey in the beginning.

Also, are you kidding me. Some tea and immediately from birthing to battle. I’m sorry, no matter how much magic no.

Wow...this book! I love this series SO much! A Destiny in Sapphire was filled with adventure, loss, rage, love, and so much more. The author really took us on an adventure through this book, even more so than the other two. Be warned she does NOT let our heroes get through this book easily, at times I wasn't sure if she was on their side, BUT it somehow worked out in the end...mostly. Lots of shocks and surprises and crying and screaming...basically everything you want out of a fantasy romance novel

What an ending!

I’m so sad it’s over. This story was on heck of an adventure! One I won’t be forgetting any time soon. I loved everything about this story as a whole.

Well done Jessica Florence. I can’t wait to own the paperbacks.

I loved this book. Jessica Florence is an auto-buy for me.
The story picks up where A Truth in Ruby left off, with Sapphira finding her way back to her mate and family to fight the big bad.
Her journey is entertaining and it was enjoyable getting to know existing characters better and meeting new friends.
The vivid scenes had my jaw on the floor and there were scenes where I was laughing, and then in shock, thinking that was the coolest freaking thing I had read in a long time. It was cool how there were multiple POV and that made it feel like you get the complete story from several angles.
There’s fae, dragons, crystals, surprise new creatures and plenty of steam

This book was absolutely amazing! It was exactly the book I needed after how we left Sapphire at the end of book 2.

This is a great ending to the trilogy, you will laugh, cry, be excited and have so many feeling during this book. I definitely cried at more then one point, but it was all worth it in the end.

I completely love Sapphire and Rune, and this story gives a great resolution for both characters. We also get great insight to the side characters we have fallen in love with from the first two books. I love having this story told from the POV of not just the main couple, but their friends as well. It gives the story so much depth.

This series has quickly worked its way up to one of my all time favorites and I hope we get to return to Crysia someday

I have enjoyed this entire series and this book is no exception!

It was very fast paced. So much action and adventure.

I adore Sapphira and Rune and all of their circle of friends. I enjoyed watching them grow, separately and together, and build a life and a family.

The multiple points of view was a perfect way to tell this story. Sad to see the series come to an end!

A bit young in the writing style. Cute but cheesey

SPOILERS

Any book that takes a kick ass heroine and then has her become pregnant with a “more powerful” heroine loses me 100%. Book felt rushed and forced. I don’t recommend.
