Bound Paths (Compass Points, #3) by Jillian Witt

Pub date Dec. 11/2024

First, I would like to thank the author for allowing me the privilege to be on her ARC team for this epic fantasy romance and providing me a copy of this final book in exchange for an honest review.  This is the conclusion to a series I have thoroughly enjoyed that explores the power of love, trust, and the unbreakable bond that united powerful fae and creatures in a realm based on the magic of the elements.

The Compass Points (Rose-Norden Point, Luc-Suden Point, Carter-Vesten Point, and Juliette-Osten Point) have their work cut out for them. Rescue Luc from veil, restore the land, save the people from the mist, and work together as a team to accomplish it. Working together was something that the Compass Points had not done in centuries. Nothing will keep Rose from reuniting with Luc now that she just found the one she never thought she needed; her other half to make her whole.

"Forgive me, Rose. I know you'll come for me" 

Together, they plan to work hard with the Compass Points to strengthen the lands and make it safe for everyone. That includes stopping the bans of other houses mingling with one another. Rose and Luc's relationship proves that it can be done and it works. Now all she needs to do is get him back and they need to figure out how to reach the veil.

This was a great series. If you love diving into a new magic system with strong main characters with snarky side kicks and a side of spice, you should read this series.
