Passion Unleashed by Larissa Ione

5.0

I'm totally loving the Demonica series. Larissa Ione writes with really creative world-building and awesome connection between her characters. I love the conflict brought up in each book and also the family connection between the Sem brothers. In this third book, Wraith is featured, and he has to figure out a way to get a charm away from Serena. The charm prevents the person who possesses it from being killed or dying, and the conflict is intense because Wraith has been cursed, so he's dying, and Serena had been given the charm in the firs place because SHE was dying. So, the only way to save himself is to kill her (which frankly, was the only part of the plot that sort of icked me out.)

Wraith gets to be his usual vampire self, has lots of conflict with his brothers, and eventually he and Serena have to figure things out.

Spoiler

I enjoyed this one, even if it was a little strange seeing Serena call Wraith "Josh" for most of the book, and the part about having to take her virginity/charm to save himself meant killing her kind of made Wraith less heroic in my eyes. But for the most part, it was enjoyable. I always enjoy Ione's writing.

4.5/5 stars
