This was such a fantastic end to this series.  This might be my favourite book of the three.  I loved seeing Spencer and Asher finally come together in this book. Their relationship was the final piece of the puzzle to see Spencer and Zane, Rio & Asher all together.  I love some good old-fashioned feminine rage, and Spencer's revenge arc really brought it!  This book (and series) is full of passion, heart, and loads of spice, and I'm so sad to see the series is over.  Can't wait to see what Ivy comes up with next.
