5.0

The saga continues in this book and it’s absolutely riveting! My life is basically on hold so I can finish this trilogy!

The plot is so so good and so well written! The spice is just an added bonus!

I love how the slow burn between Bliss and Nash finally came to a delicious conclusion🔥 It was about time!

War and Scythe was just 🔥 but the last two chapters of the book had me biting my nails and repeating ‘no! No! NO!’ 😩😩😩 Then adding on the cops and Tabor! I was screaming into the void!!!! 😩😩😩

I really liked Vincent in the first book and I missed him in this one, hoped he would make an appearance. But I’m also conflicted because if we have Vincent then what happens to Scythe and War?? 😩😩😩😩

My brain cannot compute this so into the third book, I go!

Also, the narration!!!! 5 ⭐️ again!! How Gregory Salinas can narrate Vincent, War, Nash and Scythe and bring out their different qualities is something that should be studied!!!

Michelle, as always, shone as Bliss! 💛 

I cannot recommend this book enough!!!
