Nice ending to the trilogy but wasn’t anything special. The story felt really reparative at times and the villain was a huge let down.
Between the three books the pacing just seems so off -
I think if the author had combined all three and cut out the unnecessary bits then it would have been a much better read.

I’m gonna start this by saying was this the best book series I’ve ever read? No. Was I highly entertained through the whole thing? Yes. Did I almost dnf the first book because the heroine was on my last nerve? Also yes. Do I think you should read it? Yes. Will this review make any sense? Probably not

This is a thrilling end to the trilogy. These two must each fight their demon sides, but they must determine if being together makes them stronger or only their demons stronger. Along with being at war with themselves they are also at war with the freeman that wants nothing more than to rid the earth of both demons and angels, take back power, and kill this pair. The question is whether these two will help one another or destroy one another.
I really enjoyed the concept of this whole series. Each book was a quick read. The history of the angels and demons could have been a little further explained. The first book was my favorite with a slow burn romance, but by book three I was ready for them to consume one another. The plot line was interesting, but it got a little repetitive at points. I loved the growth and development of the character Lilah throughout the series. This was an audible read for me and I did thoroughly enjoy both narrators.
I think this is a great fantasy read for young adults. It has an interesting story line about demons, angels, and their roles on earth. It's a sweet slow burn romance. I definitely recommend it as a good audible read choice because the narrators were spot on.

Solid finish to the series. I'm glad everything tied up nicely, and enjoyed the little plot twists throughout!

As always, the final instalment of a series is a bittersweet read. You want to finish it, but you really don't want it to be the end.
Character development:
In this instalment, we finally got to see both Lila and Samael come to terms with who they really are, what they want and why they are fighting the fight.
Alas, we didn't get to see much of Sourial *sad panda*, so I'm kinda hoping we might get a spin-off with him and Emma (pretty please!!).
Throughout the series, the characters were well fleshed out and had enough depth, enough feelings that made it very easy to become emotionally invested in their fight against the Free Men.
Pacing and flow:
While there were plenty of exciting and action-filled scenes in this book, I felt it had a more mellow feel to it (which isn't a bad thing, I promise! It just lacked a bit of 'oompf'). It was a very smooth and easy read with a good balance between action and conversations (and hot tubs :D).
The book:
The book was well written with no (noticeable) errors. There is sex described (if that is important to you).
The book is 249 pages long, spread over 37 chapters and told from both Lila's and Samael's point of view.
Final thoughts:
I voluntarily read an advanced reader copy of this book and all I can say is: well done! I just really like books with angels and demons and mythological creatures :D
I really hope we will get another series set in this world *points at Sourial* as I would love to read how things are a few years later :)
