I felt as though this story was a rehash of Born of Fire. Although Devyn and Alice were likeable enough characters, there was no depth to them or their romance. It felt very flat and forced.
If you are a fan of this series, I would recommend reading this just so you get to learn more about the other great characters in this story. I would not recommend it for the plot or romance aspects.

Short and sweet. A nice little novella to give some "side characters" a happy ending.

I was kind of sad that we already are dealing with the first two books kids all grown up. That said I loved this book. I like happy endings and love that Syn and his two had that in this.

WOW! The best of the series!!! I re-read this right after I read it I loved it so much. It was so fun to see all children of my favorite characters as they embarked on their own shenanigans. This book read smooth and Kenyon has this perfect way about putting all the other books together so that you're not scratching your head like who the hell is this and what the hell is going on. This book was the perfect way to end Syn's legacy but I am so hopping to see more about their story line.

3.5 Stars.
It's been a couple years since I read the first two in this series but thankfully it was on a later timeline than the last two so it didn't take long to pick back up. I am on the fence about how much I enjoyed this book. Obviously it was good enough for me to keep on reading it but I think I much prefer SK Fantesy Romance books over her Sci-Fi Romance. (I also found that the epilogue was a bit cheesy.)
Probably will continue reading this series because I can never get enough of her books but I didn't enjoy it as much as I'd hoped.

This wasn't bad--it wasn't awesome--everything was just fine.
Wanted to like this one, since I really like the previous book but I was so bored.
While I was reading it I would end up reading a decent chunk fairly quickly but when I had to put it down I felt no desire to pick it back up and finish it.
The hero, Devyn, was fine. The heroine, Alix, was fine. The plot, was...eh. The romance was really non-existent. The only thing I was really interested in, and even they didn't keep me completely invested, were the secondary characters.
It was never explained why Alix looked so much like Clotilde.
The short "make Alix pretty" scene/moments annoyed me.
The "romance" was basically, Alix is attracted to Devyn, Devyn was attracted to Alix, at least partly because she reminded him of Clotilde. They are in his? room at some point and they end up in bed quickly. No build up, nothing. And then they occasionally have sex throughout the book but there was no romance part. So the couple left me cold.
Also Alix's past was really only an issue when it suited the story. Oh we need the crew or Devyn to feel something here and jump start them into action, bring up Alix's horrible childhood. However having sex with Devyn never bothered her, she didn't have any issues, when in the past she was raped and assaulted by many of her father's crew. Even if Devyn's the most wonderful and sweet man in the world she's still going to have, at least some, reservations to being physical with him.
I will continue on, hopefully the other books in the series are better.

I enjoyed this one, but I felt the story was a bit rushed overall.

Once again, I'm reminded why I prefer the full books over the novellas. It's a bit disconcerting to read 2nd Gen characters now that Kenyon's back to writing 1st Gen stories.
I have to say though, that Devyn definitely is a perfect combination of Syn and Shahara. While I loved Vik in Born of Fire, he's even better in this book!!
I also liked Alix more from the start than Kiara & Shahara. Even though she's in a tough position, she realizes from the get-go it's probably not smart ... and has a LOT of guilt.
Nyk's kids are all kinds of badass ... I'm actually really looking forward to their books when they come out. Sway is very intriguing also. Considering his parents ... I'd definitely like to know more about him. Omari is pretty awesome too.
Overall, a great story with lots of action. It was great to see all the original Sentella come together. Not quite as badass as they are in the Gen 1 books, but pretty amazing to see they're all pretty awesome after having their own families and such.
I have to say, the ending made my heart happy.
