Claimed by Fate by Shannon Mayer

cricket58's review against another edition

5.0

Claimed by Fate is the last book in the Alpha Territories trilogy. I loved this book, the entire trilogy is wonderful but the way this one ties up everything is really well done.
The characters are well developed and the story moves at a great pace. The book pulls you in and has you turning pages and before you know it, it is over.

This book brings the war for the Vampire kingdom to a close. Sienna and Dominic have convinced the Werewolves to help them take the Vampire Kingdom back from William and Dominics ruthless brother Edmund.

After being betrayed by his second in command Scarlett, Dominic is in hurt and angry. Sienna has lost her sweet friend Jordon and is dreading this war because she knows that she is probably going to lose more loved ones.

The war scenes are action packed and so full of surprises that I loved reading that part and I usually hate reading war scenes.
The ending was both sad and wonderful. I am not going to lie I cried a little at the end.

I truly hope that there is a spinoff series from this one. I would love to find out more about each of the supporting characters. I hope that Dominic and Sienna make an appearance in the spin off books if there are some.
Some if you love a well written story, one that pulls you in draws a wide variety of emotions from you, is action packed and full of the unexpected this entire series is for you.

Loved the conclusion to Sienna and Dom’s story. I love how Shannon left the main plot line open so that we get more stories in the Alpha universe. I can’t wait to see more about Diana and the other supes.

I really enjoyed this trilogy! I love some good character development, and Sienna and Dominic definitely went through a lot of it.

I do feel like this book was a tiny bit rushed, but I loved the overall story and I’m happy with the “ending” that we got! I can’t wait to read the next book and get into Diana’s mind, although I’m sure it’ll be a bit rough after that heartbreak at the end!!

I definitely recommend this series for anyone who enjoys a good vampire/werewolf story, and I can’t wait to read more!

The trilogy as a whole is a solid 3.5 and I enjoyed it as something fun to read. I didn't love it like I love other books but Sienna and Dominic's love story was really cute. I just think somethings were typical and there wasn't much depth to some characters and the world building was lacking. The whole concept is so amazing, I think there could have been so much more done with it. In general I think it did have good twists and parts that will make you sad, happy, and excited.

Much more satisfying than the last. Pacing was good too- only complaints being that the ultimate villain death seemed anticlimactic and the immortality reveal was shoved in at the very end. But it was a lovely read overall
