She saved the best for last.
This was everything that I have come to expect from this author and then a little more. From the first paragraph to the last I was 100% invested. It was filled with just the perfect balance of strong characters, angst, chemistry, and a plausible storyline.
Nova and Emmet had everything going for them at the same time all the odds against them which made the angst that much heavier. I felt for Nova and the position that she was in. Especially, as her heart truly loved her family. I cannot say more without giving away a major catalyst to the story other than I really did hurt for what she had to come to realize and how. Emmett was beautiful. I loved how he loved so completely and selflessly. I hurt for him too when everything came to a head. They both got shafted by what happened. Together, these two were spicy hot. I loved how bright they burned for each other, even when it was just supposed to be steam between them.
It was bittersweet to come to the end of this amazing series, especially, as I have loved these characters and their stories something fierce. I look forward to whatever this author has in store for me next though. I am sure it will be amazing.

Je pense que c’est mon préféré de la série. J’ai aimé voir le débat intérieur de Nova et la voir tenter de démêler le vrai du faux. C’est un livre axé davantage sur le développement du personnage, ce qui est moins mon genre normalement, mais dans ce cas-ci, j’ai apprécié ! Par contre, encore une fois, je pense que la romance aurait pu être plus développée et se faire plus graduellement.

A stressful (but fun) end to a great series. I’ll miss Clifton Forge even though it still freaks me out that they’ve all killed people.

"...if you're looking for your future over your shoulder, you're turned the wrong way."
This is my favorite series from Perry, and I confess to having the highest of expectations for this finale. It began on shaking ground... Despite my mixed emotions, I could not stop reading and spent the entire night deeply immersed in this story. I eventually made peace with my feelings and completely embraced this revenge plot.
Overall, it was a fabulous finale! While I am saddened the series has officially ended, I have no doubt Perry will give little glimpses of these beloved characters in the future.
For a reader that despises MC series, I have found I will read anything this author writes.

I did not like Nova and felt she threw off the balance of family aspect that has been dominate in this series.Overall, it was a fabulous finale! While I am saddened the series has officially ended, I have no doubt Perry will give little glimpses of these beloved characters in the future.
