5.0

I've been waiting for the conclusion to this trilogy for a long time and it was exactly what I hoped it would be! The story was great and filled with action, but its core was the conflict within Ruby and the resulting dramas between her and Arcus/Kai. I felt for Kai for the most part, but I'd hoped he'd gotten the message earlier.

As for Ruby and Arcus, well, I've always loved their relationship and romance, and it definitely had some bittersweet moments. Still, as frustrated as I could be with them at times, I never stopped caring about them or rooting for their growth as people, and always ended up smiling at their fun, romantic banter.

The ending was really inventive and I enjoyed it a lot, though the final few pages seemed to wrap things up really quickly. Still, any minor gripes I might have did nothing take away the thrilling experience of reading this fantastic series. I'm honestly going to miss all of these characters, Ruby and Arcus in particular. I highly recommend the FROSTBLOOD SAGA to any young adult fantasy lovers, and anyone looking to read a great romance for the end of summer!
