Free the Dark by Nicola Rose
5.0
*This is the conclusion in the Elwood Legacy trilogy and Taste the Dark and Burn the Dark MUST be read first.
Jess has let go and embraced the darkness with Alex, living on the mantra of blood sex fire and death for weeks, accidently bringing forth the vampire apocolypse. But nothing and no one will get in her way and stop her. Not even Zac, who is always there. His light not far from where Jess and Alex leave destruction and chaos in their wake. But something under Jess's skin wants more. Will all be lost, or will Jess be able to reign in her darkness, and save the vampire and human race from extinction?
This book was the conclusion to the Elwood trilogy, and got darker and dirtier than the first two. Bringing forth an apocolypse, the world in a frenzy of destruction, chaos, and war Jess has to decide if she wants to continue on with having her feelings buried, and thriving in the darkness and fun of being a new vampire-witch hybrid, or to flip the switch and let in her feelings and the light and find some morality. The love triangle is still very much in play- she undoubtably loves Alex, but the bond between her and Zac is still present. Now the trio has to face off not only with the unfinished business with the Bael, but also the humans and the catastrophic consequences of the Morena Legacy. Will they survive, or will the apocalypse doom them all? I loved loved loved this story and how everything played out. Alex was still my favorite, and the war within himself. I have a thing for assholes, alphas, & bad boys and Alex fit that perfectly. Especially since he was a vampire. And Zac still warred with his beast even after the events of book two. And Jess grew into her own. Owning her vampirism, and powers. Taking control. These characters have owned me, filled me up, and left me wanting more. Amazing finale to an amazing trilogy. 4.5⭐ out of 5⭐
