I was really looking forward to the conclusion of the series and while it wasn't as action packed as I expected it didn't disappoint. I loved how the romance was wrapped up beautifully. 
I really enjoyed this book but it still left me wanting more with the epilogue at the end... I thankfully know that there is another series of Saint View and I'm excited to start reading it.

This is the first book in the series and while it is a slow start, the author (Elle Thorpe) did an amazing job writing and hooked me into the series. 
The questions and plot twists add so much to the book, I was on the edge of my seat and couldn't wait to read how this would all play out
