So I finally decided to finish this trilogy! This book was the perfect ending and it was everything I wanted and more!
There isn’t many books that make me giddy. Sage and Alex are adorable. They go through a lot together but always remain loyal and lean on one another for support. They have their fights but everything is worth it in the end. They are perfect and just make me so happy!
There is a lot of growth throughout each book for Sage and Alex but also a lot of the other characters. I also enjoy seeing Lani again in this book because she was such a great character in the second book. She is definitely a friend that everyone should have because she is loyal and will hurt the man that hurt you. Sisters before Misters! Am I right?
Of course, there are many other relationships blossoming along the way and I was here for everyone. They also did burden the plot and I’m glad everyone got what they deserved. Who doesn’t want happiness?
The plot was a bit slow at the end but when assassins come into play and threaten to separate the greatest pair I was all in! I did call who the mastermind was but I was still off on other things so I wasn’t upset about that. It wasn’t my favorite plot out of the three books but it was still worth reading.
Overall, it was a perfect ending. Honestly, probably one of the best endings for a series that I have read all year. If you haven’t read this series yet, you are missing out!

As a person following this book trilogy for three years now, I have to say, it did feel sufficiently wrapped up. I enjoyed the thing of the ends and the conclusivity of the book. There were certainly a lot of other things I liked about the book too (I did give it four stars). I liked Sage and Alex's relationship. I liked the parallels between Sage and Alex and Zoraya and Huzar. I liked Sage's inward thinking about her own growth and how she needed to grow more. I think this book of all three most explicitly had Sage reflecting on what she had done wrong, why it was wrong, and how she needed to improve. And I do love me some character development.
But, of course there were a few things I didn't like. Mainly, that I knew who did it from the beginning. Literally right after the assassins (that's not much of a spoiler, I feel like there's assassins in every book), I was able to know who sent them. But then I had to read the rest of the book of them trying to figure it out. Sage really should have figured it out sooner, she was in the best position to, she had all the information. Anyway, to some extent it was a little painful, and also meant I did not get to experience the thrill of the finding out or the plot twist at the end. The other thing, which really is a thing started in book two but that I was thinking about a lot, was the supposed need to write in Lani's accent. They're all switching languages all the time, you're telling me none of the other characters even have an accent? No, just the brown one. I found it to be pretty offensive and unnecessary.
However, I would like to end the review in a good note. One of the things that bugged me about the last two books is that at the end, someone HAS TO die. While I can see how you can carry over into the next books and have these deaths drive the remaining characters, it felt less about characters and more about shock factor. Although at the same time, that's how war is. However, I felt that the way this book handled killing people off was better than the other two.
Overall, I did really enjoy reading this series and getting to spend my time in this world. I would recommend this series to fans of daughter of the pirate king.

The twist felt very expected compared to the ones in the previous two, but it was still a page turner.
