Gossamer is the final book in The Golden Wolf trilogy bringing Cin’s journey to an end. After the events of the previous book, I was curious to know whether Cin will have a happy or bittersweet ending.  
The flashbacks were a nice touch which I really appreciate to refresh my memory and keep me up to speed. 
 
This book is also more action-packed seeing Cin is on the run from the villain. 
Numerous secrets about Cin, about Ragnarok and the prophecies are revealed and it was fascinating to see some of the Norse Gods made an appearance as Cin sought out their help to save the realms. 
 
One of the standout characters from this book is Bebe, the cat – Cin’s best girlfriend. 
Their strong friendship is heart-warming and Bebe’s sarcastic comments always liven up the story! 
Another favourite of mine is Jor, the fun and selfless Midgard Serpent. I would definitely go on a coffee date with him! 
 
While I enjoyed this book, I couldn’t say the same with how the romance unfolded. Cin and Havoc’s interactions were sparse, and I would have loved to see more of them as they finally stopped fighting their feelings for each other. 
 
Overall, this is a highly entertaining, fast-paced book. Everything was wrapped up quite nicely, I really enjoy seeing Cin’s character grow throughout the trilogy. 
I’m looking forward to see if this series might continue with a different couple, as I’m not quite ready to leave this captivating world.
