I have been patiently waiting for Sophia's story and it was better than I could have imagined.
All Sophia wants is her wedding in the lottery and when it finally comes is it what she thought it would be?
Stasia Black's stories are always wonderful to read and Theirs to Ransom is a perfect addition to this series.

I loved this one! Honestly, Sophia had annoyed the hell out of me in the other books, but she really came into her own in this book. I loved the storyline with her leaving the comfort of the Jacob’s Well community and going out on her own with Finn (swoon!). Then the disastrous beginning of her sham wedding. But then she stepped up and threw herself into danger to try and take down Travis and save the republic. The final scenes were really touching as well, seeing each of the couples 5 years on thriving and living in peace. I loved the happy ending.

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Luego de 4 libros que a mi parecer fueron espléndidos.. Este libro fue una decepción para mi, incluso cuando es el más oscuro de todos siento que la historia o bien el personaje de Sophie no esta bien desarrollado a comparación con nuestras otras protagonistas.

¿Lo único bueno? El segundo epílogo donde me los dieron a todos felices.

Good ending to the series

This was a good wrap up to the series.
The last book seemed to drag on whereas I whipped through this one and a matter of a couple days.

A few reviews say they liked this the least because Sophia was naive and misguided, but that was actually what I liked the most about it? I liked her unbridled optimism in this dystopian world, and it makes sense since her father raised her that way. If all the characters had the same personalities it would be so boring. I also didn’t think she made any especially dumb decisions, ok yeah one at the end, but I barely even cared because I have a sweet spot for her. She’s even grown since the first few books, especially looking up to and learning things from the other women. I also really liked Mario from this grouping. I also liked that the sex wasn’t as explicit in this one too. I kind of liked that it was less romance driven. The second epilogue was also everything.

Not as good as the other books in my opinion. But I loved the ending <3 Really wish the Author would consider more or do a spin off series.
