I LOVED the first two books and I was so excited for this one but honestly I could have skipped it without missing out on anything.
2/3 of the book Sera and is trapped with Kolis and chipping away at his history without really figuring out anything crucial, and then the last 1/3 is smut which I was excited for and then let down by. Sera and Ash lost some chemistry for me- I think spending so much unnecessary time apart their relationship lost some of its steam. I feel like this book was only published to extend the series to make more money and could have been 15-20% of the final book in the series instead.
I pray to god that the next book is the last one because the story is begging to wrap itself up! It’s painful when there’s not enough plot to fill up the book.

-Listened to on Audible-
This may be a controversial opinion, but Nyktos > Casteel and Serephina > Poppy. I adore Nyktos. He is gentle & genuine, but masculine, primal & Scheming at the same time. The spice is immaculate. The thing he did with his shadows - if you know, you know.
The only negatives is that the story of Serephina and Nyktos is basically the same story of Poppy and Casteel. It makes sense, but is a bit repetitive.
