I’ve been waiting for this thinking it was the last in the series, but it’s a double edge sword to find out there is to be another, yay there’s another but I have to wait again ! These books are fantastic, I am biased as I don’t think Renee can write a bad word, let alone book. The book is mainly set in the fae world of the Sylvan Vale , I definitely missed New Orleans, but it was interesting to get a different world view and this one felt slower than the previous two in the series, definitely more character than plot driven and whilst the characters are as fascinating as always, I can’t help but miss Celine and Sebastien, I just didn’t connect with Arjun and Pippa as much. Overall, I still love this series and it’s still a good read, but I can’t wait for the next book and hopefully more Celine and Sebastien.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for a free copy for an honest opinion

Mja, de andre var bedre.. Den lider meget under at der skal sættes plot op til næste bog. Men altså, jeg elsker Pippa og Arjun - og det er jo deres bog

The plot like my gravy thickens and I am loving it. However there are places in the story telling that make me question whoes story this actually is.

Honestly, I'm more invested in Celine's story. I love Arjun.

NOOOO. I wanted to like this book so much. I was so excited to have the story of Pippa and Arjun and see where that took us. But unfortunately they are victims of a different narrative. I feel like if the book had only been about Pippa and Arjun and not still had the underlying tones of the rest of the series, I would have been much happier. But to end it in that way really did the couple dirty. Don't get me wrong, I am going to read the last book in the series to see how it all ends, but I wish it had been different. 

Why is this book focused on Pippa!!!!
Disappointing
