I thought I was okay with the ending of book two but this final chapter of Tobias’ and Cecilia’s story is the perfect wrap up of the series. Cecilia’s character arc from beginning to end of the series is one of my favorites — a true coming of age story. The ways that Stewart honored Dom in this book were also some of the best parts of this book. Add in romance, spice, and some moments to put you on the edge of your seat and you have a winning book.

CECELIA YOU BAD BITCHHHHH! You outsmarted and beat the master at his own game! This whole series was incredible and I was not expecting that ending. I think this was my favorite of the series, dual POV with Tobias and Cecelia, that’s how it should have been for all of the books in my opinion. I am confused on why the epilogue with Sean was the same in both exodus and the finish line though? I loved these books so much I had to buy the physical copies of them. 💕
