It is such a heartrenching story. You can't help but love Seth and want to hug him!!
Overall I thought it was a good read. There were just a couple of things that I wasn't really content with, like Also, I am a much bigger Dark Hunter fan than I am a Dream Hunter.

how fast Lydia got over the fact that Seth had tortured Solin. I think, no matter what his reasons, she should have put up just a little more of a fight.
Thank the gods -- she's back!! With the exception of the too simple rescue, this is first of Sherrilyn's books that I've read in a long time that didn't feel rushed and poorly executed. So glad for that.

I just didn’t think that this book was one of Kenyon’s best. I’m sure it is a story that needed to be told in the grand scheme of things, but it was just an okay read.
I liked this a lot better than the previous book. This reminded me of the early books, with the tortured hero and the strong heroine.
This was a heartbreaking read, Sherrilyn Kenyon knows how to write them. As always, her books are ever complex, growing in plot and numerous characters, it's hard to keep them all straight. I know eventually we will get Jadens story and I'm not even gonna try to guess that one as absolutely nothing as what it seems. I love the Dreamhunters though. But, just like in mythology the characters of good and evil are ever changing depending upon their purpose and level of selfishness. After all the horrible things, I was very glad there was a HEA.
This book was much better than the last few. It is back on track with the series plot arc, as well as characters that were more developed.
This is starting to get back to DH universe that I know and I love. There were flaws, but unjust so happy this didn't completely suck last the last book, that I can over look them.

Interesting concept, a Were Hunter that is also a Dream Hunter. I thought this was much better than the previous book.
I'm not going to review this book. Because if I did, I would probably end up giving it a much lower rating. Suffice to say, I enjoyed it mostly because I worked really hard at not thinking about what was going on. Like the romance between a woman and her CAPTOR whom she is lusting after like 30-seconds after he finishes torturing her father and abducting and holding her life ransom. I want to say the story somehow resolves that plot point in a satisfying way, but it really doesn't. I mean, not 35 pages before the book ends our main pair have this conversation:
“Have I ever given you any reason to fear me?”
Her jaw dropped with incredulity. “Um, yeah.” Then she ticked her list off her fingers. “You took my powers. Made me your prisoner and threatened to kill me and my father. Have you forgotten you tortured my father, and I don’t mean a little bit either?”
And really, that's the most development the relationship gets. He holds her hostage, they fall in instalust which then just as quickly (the whole book takes place over the course of 5 days max) turns to instalove. I still enjoyed it; I don't know why. Probably because there's no escape for me now from the Dark-Hunterverse. But I'm still disappointed how lazy Kenyon has become recently about developing the emotional side of romances. Yes, these books are tilting harder towards urban fantasy, but they're still romance novels, and the last few have been pretty unsatisfying on the romance side. As a reader, I have no reason to buy these two will have a lasting relationship.
I think I'm going to read a few of the Chronicles of Nick books before continuing on with the main series.
PS - Sorry I kind of lied about not reviewing this book.
