4/5

Another perfect way to end a doualogy. I loved Fable’s story and was so excited to get to know more of her background. I loved that new characters came back, and that the audience got to see more of Fable and Saint’s relationship. The only thing about the story was that I felt like there was something missing..

This one was also a good book, I like the way the world expanded throughout the duology, and I liked the character development. Fable's name makes more sense in this story, and I liked that there was an explanation besides "it sounded cool".

Overall, I think Saint and Fable's bonding made sense, but the development in her and West's relationship was a little unbelievable. they were both shifty traders, but I don't think her fear of West was as cleared up as it should have been.

I liked Fable, but I liked this one even more. The author does an amazing job of building on the characters and the world that she introduced with Fable.

We learn so much more about some characters we know and some we have briefly heard of. There are secrets to be discovered and some surprising and satisfying tender moments that brought me to tears. I really liked the way the story was wrapped up.

I may need to read some more of Adrienne Young!

This was a great end to the duology. This book was a beautifully written easy read. You really get sucked into this world and feel connected to the characters.
