Fuck. This. Book. I nearly threw it across the lobby at my office because I was so mad. CAN WE NOT HAVE 5 MINUTES BEFORE FORTUNA FUCKS IT ALL UP AGAIN?!? That being said I love the character development and the world building.

This is probably my favorite and least favorite of the series. The last like 20% of the book I was so mad that’s why I dislike it but damn do I love Collith and Fortuna’s relationship so it’s my favorite.

First off AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Now to the actual review. Love, adored, give me more. I spent the majority of the book hoping for a poly-relationship to form between 3 of the main characters (if you know, you know)

But Laurie had to go and be a fucking twat waffle in the last chapter and now he can kindly go die under a bush

. Fortuna is amazing, and isn't a heroine that has it all figured out, she is mudding her way through life like most of us 20 somethings, and making a royal mess of it half the time. The importance she places on family, not just blood family, but also found family is amazing. I would personally do anything for Finn and I would like to start a petition that we get a companion book of his back story please and thank you.

4.0

 I either needed a refresher of the events from Book 2 or the start of this book was super slow. It took me a bit to remember some of the events and people that we met in Book 2. Once the action picked up in this book, it was PERFECTION. I love the uniqueness in the magic and the choices the author makes is spectacular and unique. The romantic portion is interesting and something that keeps you on your toes. Part of me thinks that a Fortuna, Colith, and Laurie pairing is the only solution but after reading this I want Gwyn thrown in the equation somewhere. I LOVE the ending of this book and think it was an absolutely perfect ending that sets up Book 4 nicely (and the rest of the series for that matter). Can’t wait to see where this series goes next! I did give this book a 4 out of 5 stars because the beginning needed to be better and some minor scenes did not have as much of an impact as they could. I wonder if the author would consider adding after a content warning page a recap page to remind everyone of the previous events. I think at the start of Book 4 having the last lines of Book 3 would help to improve it. 

*Please note there are multiple content warnings in this book and fully research before you read. Some content warnings include sexual assault, rape, and sexual content*
