OKAY THIS WAS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST TWO! WOW. I’m glad we moved on from Morana and Tristan’s POV. I LOVED all the backstory to Dante and Amara. This book added to many different twists and turns I felt like my head might explode. I’m so glad I kept reading after the first book even though I had many qualms with it.
Amara is so relatable, while she went through so much trauma in her life she was resilient and worked through her trauma. Her and Dante are the very definition of soulmates. The build up of their love story is swoon worthy.

A little disappointed honestly
I was looking forward to this book because this is the one I've seen the most about on social media. I feel like I may have gotten my hopes up too high. I didn't really find their story all that compelling. I think I was expecting more angsty from between their then and now, and when there wasn't I was disappointed by the lack of tension. The beginning was definitely a lot better than the end, but still not good enough to push the rating up.

The writing also handled Amara’s trauma very well and I appreciate how it didn’t have to romanticize her fears to further the story. I don’t read a lot of dark romance books, so DV is now very special to me. I know other readers have said the pregnancy trope ruined them, but I disagree because it was bound to happen anyway. Dante was to inherit and rebuild his father’s fucked up legacy with Amara at his side. All the pieces are finally falling into place, and the introduction to Alpha’s character just hypes me up to read The Finisher.
